Ingredients: The golden oil is an incredibly rich source of vitamin E; in fact it contains twice as much as olive oil. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant which keeps the skin smooth and youthful while reducing any aging inflammation. Argan oil also contains saponins, which soften the skin and promote elasticity. They are also thought to help to reduce wrinkles by restoring the skin's water lipid layer and to cool and soothe.
Argan oil is also a potent source of essential fatty acids, especially the vital linoleic acid which cannot be made by the body and must therefore be obtained in nature. These essential fats have been shown to prevent dry, aging skin while rejuvenating the protective connective tissue and healthy skin cells.
Argan oil also contains rare plant sterols not found in other oils, making this one of nature's truly special oils. These plant nutrients make this super food for the skin and body. Its versatility soothes and smoothes all parts of the body including face, body, hands, nails, scalp and hair.
Because this oil is completely natural and chemical free, it is fantastic for problematic skin conditions such as rosacea, eczema, and psoriasis. The high vitamin E content make it useful for scarring and the combined power of this oil make it extremely beneficial for people with dehydrated, damaged from overexposure to the sun or toxins. It also helps prevent stretch marks. Media: Misc. Number Of Items: 1 Shipping Weight (lbs): 0.3 Dimensions (in): 5 x 2 x 2

Great price for a nice product November 1, 2009 C. Wilson (TX United States) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
My salon was out of Moroccan Oil so I tried this instead. The pump packaging is MUCH easier to use and though it's a very similar product it seems a bit "lighter". I notice I need to use more to get the same result, but others may not need to use as much as I do and may even prefer this formula. My shoulder-length hair is very dry and without a product like this it really suffers in our hot, windy, dry summers. I like how the Moroccan Oil smells and the Marrakesh Oil also has a pleasant fragrance but some may find it overly sweet. It reminds me a little bit of cotton candy. It smells and works much better than the Frizz-Ease products without making hair greasy or limp.
Even though I use it on wet hair, on dry hair for morning styling and again at night before brushing, this little bottle lasted a very long time. Overall I found this product an acceptable substitute with the same effects (silky, shiny, frizz-free hair) and the Amazon price is 1/3 what I paid.
softer less frizzy hair October 18, 2009 AROR (CA United States) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have thick, fine, blonde frizzy hair and Marrakesh Oil Hair Styling Elixir really does soften and reduces frizzies, and I love the fragrance. My hairdresser uses this herself and it works very well , but she has thinner, only slightly frizzy hair. I combine the Marrakesh Oil with Sabino Moisture Block, as my hair requires serious frizz control. I try every new product and really like the softening and frizz control, and combine them in my hands to apply as the Sabino is verrry thick and sticky. They both require some adjustment to figure out how much to apply, but the results are the best I have ever had. I wash my hair at night, apply the products and go to bed (NO BLOW DRYING). In the morning my hair is dry, I sometimes add a little extra Sabino to the ends as I section my hair for each roller, spray with Nexxus Heat Protex Heat Protection Styling Spray ( also helps to soften hair better than any other heat protective styling spray), and put it up in jumbo hot rollers. The result is big, soft, wavy curls, lots of shine and no frizzy hair even in high humidity or rain.
Using Moroccan argan oil in your hair-care routine March 14, 2010 Karen L. Haws-Dearing (Sugar City, ID) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Having thick waist-length hair myself, I am very excited about discovering Moroccan argan oil. It works wonderfully well for moisturizing and shining the hair without leaving it feeling greasy. What follows is quoted from my hair-care booklet which is available at my website as a free e-book download. If you would like to obtain the complete booklet, just click on my name above this review, and you will be taken to my profile page here on Amazon. There, you can click on the link to my website on Lulu and get your free e-booklet entitled, "Laurel's Personal Regimen for Healthy Hair at 50-Plus." In it you will also find a recipe for Laurel's Soft & Shiny Hair-Rinse which you can make in your own kitchen from ingredients you probably already have on hand. Here is the partial quote from my booklet specifically regarding the use of argan oil:
UPDATED ADDITIONAL STEPS: Originally in this booklet, my final suggested step was to use a soft-hold hairspray before combing out your hair. However, in June of 2009 a wonderful widower, Arthur Dearing II, found me and rescued me from my isolated seclusion. He married me and moved me to his home in Sugar City, Idaho. There, I found the climate to be much dryer than it was at my former home in Murray, Kentucky where I had lived for twenty-six years. So, I found it necessary to add some steps. Depending on the humidity where you live, you may not need to do these.
In "Step 8" I recommend using Moroccan argan kernel oil on your hair. There is a lot of information online about the marvelous benefits of applying this oil to the hair. I have also found that it is just as wonderful as a quick facial moisturizer. If I'm in a hurry and don't have time to fool around with my eye and skin creams, I just quickly dab some witch hazel on my face and neck with a cotton ball as an astringent after cleansing my face. Then, I quickly apply a little of the argan oil to my face and neck. It is quickly absorbed, doesn't irritate the eyes, and is wonderfully moisturizing without feeling greasy. That is also its great advantage as an after-shampoo application for the hair. It shines the hair without leaving an oily residue, and your hair doesn't feel greasy at all, just marvelously soft. The three brands that I am familiar with and have used myself are; Marrakesh Oil which combines argan oil with hemp oil and smells lovely, which I bought on the US Amazon site, Fushi Organic Argan Oil which is pure argan oil and has no scent, which I purchased on the UK Amazon site, and Moroccan Gold Shimmer Shine spray, which my beautician uses on my hair after she trims it. All three of those I can confidently tell you are very effective.
Step 8: Use argan oil: When you remove the towel, finger a small amount of Moroccan argan kernel oil throughout your hair or spray it throughout if you are using a spray formula. If you choose to use a soft mousse instead of soft hairspray suggested in the next step, you can just mix the oil with the mousse in the palm of your hand and then apply it throughout your hair.

I love this product. It makes my processed hair feel smooth, shiny and wonderful to just run your fingers through it. I would recommend it for thick hair. My own hair is medium length and thick.
Very good May 14, 2009 B. House (Alabama) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
