“By activating intracellular oxygenation, organic argan oil promotes the restoration of the hydrolipidic layer, preventing the skin from drying out and reduces signs of ageing.”

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: helianthus annuus seed oil, argania spinosa kernel oil.
