Argan Oil for Smoother Skin?


Argan Oil for Smoother Skin?


In recent years, argan oil has gained popularity as a natural skin-soother. Packed with healthy fats, the antioxidant-rich oil is said to shield skin from the effects of aging. Some proponents claim that argan oil can also help treat skin conditions like acne, eczema, and psoriasis.

Sourced from a tree native to Morocco, argan oil has long been used in skin care by Moroccans. But while a number of beauty companies around the world now use argan oil as a key ingredient in skin-care products, few studies have tested argan oil's effects on the skin.

There's some evidence that consumption of argan oil may offer certain health benefits. For instance, findings from animal-based research suggest that taking argan oil orally may fight insulin resistance and lower blood pressure. Since little is known about the safety of consuming argan oil, it's important to consult your doctor if you're considering the use of argan oil for any health condition.
