Organic argan oil is a heavier weight, amber colored oil with a nutty scent. The virgin argan oil we carry is non-deodorized, so you will have all the fatty acid and skin nutrients left in the oil. When used in another formula the nutty aroma will mellow out; used on its own the product will have the nutty smell but blends well with many essential oils.

Virgin argan oil has a high content of both oleic and linolenic fatty acids, making argan oil and excellent base for acne and sensitive skin formulations. Argan oil is also non-comedogenic, so adding it into any face lotion, moisturizer or wash will not leave the skin feeling heavy or greasy.

Organic argan oil also makes an excellent hair care ingredient. Whether you are making a shampoo, conditioner, shampoo bar (using our melt-and-pour soap bases, of course), hair mask or hair oil treatment, argan oil will help to deliver the smooth, healthy results your customers will be looking for.

Non-deodorized organic argan oil means that this is a pure argan oil with all of the fatty acid profiles and vitamins still intact. This oil has been through minimal processing.

Is our Organic Argan Oil Sustainably Produced?

Yes! There is a lot of controversy over the harvesting of argan oil, both around the economic issues for those doing the labor, and around the deforestation of the crops. The Organic Argan Oil sold by Shay and Company is sourced through a co-op that ensures crop renewal practices and has fair labor agreements.

Does our Organic Argan Oil have a strong aroma?

Our 100% pure Organic Argan Oil has a mild argan aroma. This product is incredibly pure, with no additives or carriers added, which makes it exceptional for hair and skincare. The way our specific organic argan oil is produced is through minimal physical processing, but is such a clean process that the super heavy aroma of some altered argan oils is not present. Our organic argan has a lovely, nutty aroma that blends well into any formulation without altering the finished product smell. Some customers believe that argan has to have the overwhelming strong smell, but we have sourced this organic argan for over a decade from the same manufacturer, and it always has a lovely, nutty aroma, not an overwhelming oil smell.
