Argan Oil: Liquid Gold for Skin & Nail Care

What It Is

Argan oil is a luxurious, cold-pressed oil derived from the kernels of the Argania spinosa tree, native to Morocco. Often referred to as “liquid gold,” it’s prized for its silky texture, high concentration of essential fatty acids, and naturally occurring vitamin E. The oil is traditionally extracted by hand and lightly filtered, preserving its full nutritional profile.

The Benefits

Argan oil is revered for its ability to nourish, strengthen, and protect:

• Rich in Antioxidants – Contains high levels of tocopherols (vitamin E) that protect against oxidative stress.

• Strengthens & Conditions – Helps fortify brittle nails and soften dry cuticles, improving overall nail appearance and durability.

• Deep Moisture, No Grease – Penetrates quickly without leaving a heavy residue, making it ideal for frequent application.

• Supports Barrier Repair – Fatty acids like oleic and linoleic acid help restore moisture balance and reinforce the skin’s lipid barrier.

Why We Use It

We use Argan oil across our formulations for its rare ability to be both lightweight and deeply nourishing. It delivers lasting softness, strengthens delicate areas like the cuticles and nail beds, and absorbs beautifully without residue. You’ll find it in products like Nail Tender, where its high vitamin E content and luxurious texture offer daily restoration—but its versatility makes it a favorite wherever we need gentle strength and botanical richness.
