To ensure that no one of these benefits is compromised, this formulation is cold-pressed, as any extraction process involving heat would cause them to degrade. Moroccan argan oil’s rich quantity of fatty acids (including oleic and linoleic acids) supports healthy skin and reduces flaking, while also boosting strands’ strength, sheen and softness when applied to hair. The Ordinary’s formulation is completely unrefined, leaving it with a natural scent, which is a testament to its purity not (as it may be mistaken for) its rancidity. What it is: A daily support formula for hair and skin. Skincare Concerns: Dryness Formulation: Lightweight Oil Ingredient Callouts: Free of parabens. This product is also vegan, cruelty-free, and gluten-free. What Else You Need to Know: This formulation uses 100 percent pure Moroccan argan seed oil extracted through a cold pressing that preserves the integrity of the oil's fatty acids, vitamins, phenols (including caffeic acid), and carotenes. The oil supports healthy skin and reduces the appearance of flaking.
