Argan Beauty Oil
Pure organic argan oil, without additives. Speedy worldwide shipping.
Our exquisite extra virgin, cosmetic grade argan oil is pressed from raw argan nuts picked fresh from the tree. It is light-textured with a delightful nutty aroma and is pure and unprocessed.
NB: cosmetic grade argan oil is not the same as the culinary variety - see Ingredients & Notes in the margin.
For optimal benefits and ease of application, use in conjunction with Mir Moisturising Lotion or Skin Silk, our argan-based moisturiser and eye cream. See Some Suggestions below.
Voted one of the best beauty oils by the Independent newspaper and a finalist best anti ageing product by Natural Health & Beauty, Mir Argan Beauty Oil is 100% pure, organic, liquid gold - beneficial to all skin types, including the most sensitive and those prone to blemishes.
Light and easily absorbed it melts into the skin leaving it smooth, supple and soothed without clogging pores. Mir Argan Beauty Oil is also wonderful on hair adding body and shine to dull, lifeless and frizzy locks.
Like all Mir products, this non comedogenic oil respects the integrity and functions of the acid mantle - which in turn protects the skin from moisture loss and acne-causing bacteria.
It works beautifully with the rest of the range, enriching and enhancing the benefits of all our products leaving face, body and hair balanced and healthy.
I have used Mir Argan Oil for years but switched to another brand recently to "save" money. It was thick and pungent, left my skin sticky so I threw it away, some saving! I now realise argan, as Gisele says, is a little like wine, the quality can vary and if you buy cheap then cheap quality is what you'll get. Can't recommend this and the rest of the Mir range highly enough. (Sarah H. London.)
Argan oil comes from the nuts of argan trees grown only in Morocco and is renowned for its anti ageing, skin calming, anti inflammatory properties.
