Also known as the "liquid gold" in the world of aesthetics, it is very useful to understand what argan oil is, what are the main benefits and how we use it.
It contains, among other substances, vitamin E, antioxidants and Omega 3 fatty acids, which makes it clear that it is an almost magical formula to take care of our skin.
The endless properties of argan oil
The uses of this compound extracted from the seeds of the Argan tree are very varied, including medicinal applications. On this occasion, we only focus on the direct benefits it provides to the skin. These are the main ones:
Combats excess oiliness. The astringent effect of argan oil is very effective to eliminate excess oil on the skin.
It is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. It is irreplaceable as an anti-acne treatment because in addition to its ability to absorb oil these properties allow the pores to be cleaned in depth.
A moisturizing bonus. The differentiating quality of this oil is that it helps retain moisture in the dermis, which multiplies its moisturizing results. Therefore, one of the best ways to make the most of this property is to use argan oil as the main component of face masks.
Regenerates. Its high vitamin A and E content helps to stimulate the skin's natural cellular repair, thereby increasing its elasticity. All this makes argan oil useful to prevent the appearance of stretch marks or wrinkles, even to tone them down in their early stages. Also for people suffering from psoriasis or to attenuate scars.
It is a natural soothing agent that comes in handy for skin irritated by sunbathing or after a depilatory treatment.
Hands and feet
We have pointed out in a generic way how argan oil improves the appearance and health of the skin. However, there are certain parts of our body that suffer a particularly marked deterioration. Specifically we are referring to the hands and feet. The aforementioned benefits are therefore more than positive for combating excessive dryness in the dermis of these two areas.
If you choose the form of a hand mask your hand will get a rejuvenated appearance by the mask's antioxidant properties.
In the same way, using sock masks is a comfortable and effective treatment against calluses.
