Melvita Argan Oil, 1.69 fl.oz Bottle

The Argan tree, indigenous to the Moroccan forest, has been a source of nourishment and skincare for centuries. Its kernels have been harvested for their "miraculous" benefits, rich in vitamin E and Omega 6s, making it an ideal oil for protecting skin and hair from premature aging, UV exposure, and other environmental factors.

Argan oil is a true regenerator, often used as a moisturizer for dry skin and as a smoother for damaged hair. It is a real 'beauty secret' for Berber women, made from un-roasted argan kernels and traditionally used for massaging joints and for nail and hair care.

The oil is cold-pressed and extracted from raw, hand-crushed kernels through an Anarha women's co-operative in Essaouira, ensuring fair trade practices. Melvita, a renowned cosmetics brand, complies with all ethical criteria for fair trade: fair prices when purchasing raw materials, preservation of biodiversity in the environment, and responsible farming.

Melvita's Argan oil is a first cold-pressed, organic oil that is colorant and preservative-free. It is certified as a Natural and Organic Cosmetic by ECOCERT FRANCE, with 100% of the total ingredients from natural origin and 100% from Organic Farming.

This versatile oil not only nourishes and protects the skin and hair but also plays a crucial role in the traditional practices of the Berber people. The sustainable and ethical harvesting and processing of Argan oil by the Anarha women's co-operative ensure that this ancient treasure continues to benefit both the local community and those who seek its restorative properties.

In conclusion, Argan oil is a true marvel of nature, offering a wealth of benefits for skin, hair, and overall well-being. Its unique origin, fair trade practices, and organic certification make it a sought-after ingredient in the world of natural and sustainable beauty.
