Worth it

I have eczema and rosacea. Finding a moisturizer that can adequately hydrate, plump and soothe, but WON'T break me out has been a pain and terrible on my wallet. I have heard every possible rumor about how Josie Maran's Argan Oil is supposed to be the miracle product that can be used from anti-aging purposes to the hair and everything in between. People I've met who also have eczema swear by this as one drop is adequate to cover nearly both of their hands. This is a super lightweight oil that promises to hydrate, heal, and protect while feeling weightless on the skin. You can use it in your hair to make your hair smooth, silky and frizz-free. However, I've heard some incredible claims about using this product on your face. The first time I tried it on my face (I had used it in my hair several times in the past), I had put a drop OVER my moisturizer at night. I feel that this oil sat on top of my skin because my moisturizer had already penetrated into my skin (my skin often has difficulty absorbing moisturizers). So I was left with a slightly greasy feeling on my skin, but it didn't feel uncomfortable unless I rubbed my hands all over my face. Then the next night, I heard that most people mix a drop of this oil WITH their night moisturizer, and rub the mix over their face. I did that. Although I still had somewhat of a greasy feeling on my skin (again), it was not as bad as the previous night. I tried this again, but put in less than a drop of the oil (more like a slight streak) in the moisturizer, and that was just about right. My skin felt smooth, super plumped and hydrated. I hope that this oil with soothe my skin the more I use it. So far I haven't had a problem with it breaking out (most people claim it doesn't cause breakouts). So I suggest getting a sample of this first (a little goes a VERY long way!) and trying it out for yourself. The hard part is finding the right amount for YOUR SKIN to use that will hydrate but won't leave it feeling greasy. Also, it's a bit pricey considering it's $14 for a small half ounce vile. That little vile will last quite some time though. — 2 weeks, 1 day ago

I've been using this on the ends of my hair. I have really dry hair and lots of split ends and I feel this does a really great job of moisturizing my hair and making it look more healthy and shiny. I love that this product is so versatile and you can use it as a moisturizer for your skin as well and in the bath! — 1 year, 1 month ago
