Argan oil is one of the best-known skincare ingredients in Morocco, but how well it works depends on how you apply it and in what order.
Why argan oil?
It is high in vitamin E and fatty acids, which suits dry and normal skin alike. Used in moderation it stays light and does not clog pores.
Morning routine
- Gentle cleanser with lukewarm water
- Rose water to rebalance the skin
- Two drops of argan oil
- Sunscreen, SPF 30 or higher
Evening routine
Repeat the same steps with four drops, massaging the face for a minute to stimulate circulation.
Common mistakes
- Using too much, which leaves a greasy finish
- Applying to completely dry skin instead of slightly damp skin
- Skipping sunscreen in the morning
Stay consistent for four weeks and the difference in hydration and glow is clear.
