INCI: Argania spinosa

Umuthi Argan Oil - Cold Pressed is a 100% pure carrier oil cold pressed from the nuts of Argania spinosa . It is a rich yet non-greasy oil used in skincare, haircare, body oils, and massage blends where a nourishing, conditioning oil is wanted. This is a cosmetic oil rather than a certified food-grade oil, so it is intended for external use only. It is especially useful in oil-based products for dry-feeling skin, hair oils, and leave-on beauty blends.

♡ Why we love it: Argan oil is a beautifully versatile oil that brings a more premium feel to simple formulations. It is especially handy when you want one oil that works well across hair, face, and body care without feeling overly heavy.
