The secret to feminine beauty...

The argan tree grows in southeastern Morocco. Its exceptional resistance to heat and drought means that it can grow in very poor soil. Since the dawn of time, argan oil has been produced from the nut of the tree, using the same traditional method. The Phoenicians used it for illumination, while today it is esteemed by Berber women for its dietary, medicinal and cosmetic properties.

A treasure of benefits for the skin!

Extracted from the argan tree, argan oil is rich in omega-6 and 9 and is traditionally used to soften, nourish and protect the skin. The argan oil used by Clarins Laboratories comes from organic farming practices.
