Keeping Your Skin Soft During the Winter Months
Its that time of year unfortunately, when many parts of the world are heading into their winter season, including us here in Canada. The one challenge that I’ve always had, is keeping my skin soft and smooth, without drying out during the long cold winter. One day, while I was looking around at various cosmetic products, I cam across something called, Argan oil. Now, many people probably never heard of this oil before. In part, because until recently, it wasn’t in the North American market place.
However, I thought in today’s article, I would share some interesting tips on this organic argan oil. You see, it originates both in Africa and Morocco. However, due to problems with over harvesting the oil in Africa, it comes mainly from Morocco. What’s really interesting about Morocco, is that this tree, actually thrives in the desert part of the country. Due to its deep root structure, the Argan oil tree is able to survive.
With cooperation between the local people and the government, they formed a partnership sometime ago. The locals harvest and process the oil and the government has set up distribution capabilities. The oil is now exported around the world and is established in a number of high end spas.
What makes this oil so healthy for your skin? It actually contains one of the richest sources of vitamin E. As well, it contains essentially fatty acids and carotenoids. Together, these nutrients help give the skin a layer of extra protection and help to keep it soft. If you would like more information, simply visit the following link – click here
