Argan Oil: from the past to the present
Argan oil is extracted from a valuable plant that grows exclusively in Morocco, called Argania. From the kernel of this plant, the famous Argan oil is extracted.
Its benefits have been recognized since ancient times, so much so that the tree from which this oil is extracted is also called the “tree of life.”
