ARAGAN fruit and oil

Origin of argan oil

A true gift of nature, argan oil is extracted from the fruit of the argan tree, a tree that grows mainly in southwestern Morocco. Similar to a nut, the fruit of the argan tree contains kernels in its core. It is by pressing these small seeds cold that one obtains cosmetic argan oil. it takes about 6 to 7 argan trees to produce 1 L of argan oil, knowing that a tree represents on average 6 to 8 kilos of nuts. It is for this reason that argan oil is considered valuable, and is often referred to as a "miracle oil". However, the qualities that one lends him are not all founded.
