Product Overview
One of the world's most rare and potent beauty serums, this unrefined (virgin), certified organic, Moroccan argan oil is rich in nutrients, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids. As a non-greasy, fast absorbing oil, it offers better protection for skin and hair than any other oil on the planet. Argan oil is high in something called oleic acid and even though it’s still considered a “dry” oil, meaning it won’t leave an oily residue and will absorb quickly, it’s an oil which will keep the skin moisturized, help battle the loss of elasticity and reduce inflammation. Oleic acid adds a richness to oils, making argan oil an excellent deep moisturizer. It penetrates easily and deeply into the skin’s surface, replenishing lost moisture that naturally comes with age, it also helps the moisture from evaporating. There are many reasons why this oil is considered 'liquid gold'!
Argan oil's benefits for skin are many, here are the highlights:
- Enriched with antioxidants it protects skin from sun damage and helps with skin repair from sun exposure.
- A 0 on the comedogenic scale, this is a potent beauty serum, perfect for delicate or sensitive skin.
- Moisturizes skin, packed with vitamin E and fatty acids it hydrates, nourishes and moisturizes effectively and replenishes skin cells. Do you have mature skin? Here's 3 important skincare tips!
- Prevents and reduces stretch marks as it helps improve skin elasticity.
- Heals infections with its anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties. Speeding up the healing process of wounds, infections and burns is a wonderful benefit of this amazing oil.
- Treats acne, heals blemishes and even's out skin tone.
This invaluable organic argan oil will also repair and reinforce your hair while protecting it from environmental damage caused by weather, sun, and heat from blow dryers and hair irons. Celebrities call argan oil "liquid gold" and pay exorbitant prices to purchase it from high end spas and salons. Organic argan oil is truly a luxurious, superior, multi-purpose treatment for your hair and skin.
Moroccan Argan oil has multiple uses for hair and body:
- Thermal heat protectant for hair: put 2-4 drops in the palm of your hand and massage into damp hair after showering. Your hair will feel silky soft after blow-drying. Check out our BLOG for more information about this and amazing results you can see!

Not All Argan Oils Are Created Equal!
Apple Valley has the best organic argan oil currently available on the market. I've tried my share! Apple Valley offers an oil of substance - some out there are thin, even runny. Their oil absorbs almost instantly into the skin and gives a smoothed texture and youthful appearance. I am in my 60s, but the skin on my face now looks firmer! I use this magical oil from head to foot (hair, face, body - decollete!, hands and nails, feet). I also bought some for my mother, who is in her 80s, and she loves it! The pump bottle is super efficient, allowing you to pump out as much as you need. Although at first, it seemed a kind of luxury, I think it may be a must.

Get the Larger size!
I hesitated purchasing the larger size bottle for fear I wouldn't like it. But for a few dollars more, I figured it would be best to get the bigger bottle. I'm so glad I did! With the change of season from summer to winter, the air is more dry, causing my skin to be dry as well. I love this moisturizer! It feels like satin and smells wonderful! I'm so happy I went with the bigger bottle!

Surprising
I just started using the Argan Oil and so far it is great. I used it on my face after cleansing and I only needed a tiny bit.

GREAT moisturizer
This oil is amazing...and leaves facial skin soft & smooth. Doesn't feel greasy in the short or longer term! My husband & myself are enjoying this super-easy moisturizer. And, a little goes a long way so it lasts quite a while. :)

Perfect facial moisturizer for combination skin
I bought this to replace my facial moisturizer, and I love it! My skin is prone to be a bit on the oily side, but also gets dry, irritated and pimply if I use cleansers that are too harsh. I've been using this with a gentle facial wash and it's just what I needed. Very natural, no ickies, but it has helped even out my skin tone and keep it fairly clear.

New Facial Moisturizer
I love this product....it works on my dry skin much better than the lotion I've used for the past 20 yrs or more. I just reordered it and was glad to see the applicator for the bottle is different...that was the only thing I didn't care for on my last purchase.

Really NICE
Love this oil....the smell is not overwhelming and it makes my skin glow immediately but then lasts too. One suggestion....the applicator that I received pours out the sides which causes me to lose some of it:( Apple Valley Natural Soap Response: Keep the bottle in an upright position when pumping out the product. If you tip it to the side while you are pumping, the product will go up into the walls of the pumping mechanism, and the next time you go to pump it out, that will seep out. By holding the bottle in an upright position while pumping, you will avoid that issue! : )

Wonderful!!
I have been using this oil now instead of regular moisturizer after I wash my face. I was nervous at first because I tend to have sensitive skin and break out every time I try a new product. So far no major breakouts!! I am definitely sticking with this one as it makes my face feel and look so soft.
