What is Argan oil or Moroccan Argan Oil?<\/h3>\r\n
Argan oil, one of the oldest beauty treasures from Morocco, is a multi-purpose natural beauty care product that will enhance your beauty life.<\/div>\r\n
<\/div>\r\n
This natural wonder oil, used by Moroccan women for centuries, is derived from the fruit of the Argan (Argania Spinosa) tree in the Southwest of Morocco. The Argan tree can live up to 200 years in a dry arid region and produces an oval-shape green and yellow fruit. A single tree yields 8-13 lbs. of Argan fruit per harvest while each fruit contains 2-3 kernels. Almost 7 lbs. of kernels are required to produce about 34 fl.oz. of Pure Argan Oil.<\/div>\r\n

\r\n\r\nThe production of Argan oil is a labor-intensive process that involves manual handling by Moroccan women at cooperatives. After the nuts are collected, they are cracked open by hand with a stone to obtain the kernels which are then machine cold pressed to extract the precious Argan oil. It takes up to 20 hours to produce about 34 fl. oz of Argan Oil.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_19534\" align=\"alignright\" width=\"225\"]\"Argan<\/a> Argan nuts and rock in Arazane by Khadija Fajry[\/caption]\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
