We all want to make a new start for a new year. How about looking younger and feeling more confident in 2015 without hitting the gym or stepping on the scale?

You can do it with prickly pear oil. This luxurious, natural oil, pressed from the seeds of prickly pear cactus, has the power to rejuvenate skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Although heavier in texture than argan oil, it is absorbed quickly into the skin, restoring elasticity and brightening your complexion. It naturally nourishes, moisturizes and softens your skin as it tightens pores and refines your skin's texture. 

And if you want to prevent those wrinkles in the first place, vitamin-E-rich prickly pear oil is your new best friend. Daily use slows the aging process by protecting against free radicals, eliminating dark spots and those under-eye shadows we all hate. 

Here's another great beauty secret: Your fresher, younger look is just a few clicks away! 

Argan Anti-Aging Serum and Argan Almond Eye Cream both put this powerhouse to work for you, smoothing, refining and brightening your skin so you can put a fresh new face forward for 2015. 

We at Argan Flora are thrilled to announce that Uni-Hair Salon, one of the Midwest's premier Japanese beauty salons, will now offer Argan Flora products.

You have heard that Argan Oil is becoming the beauty secret of the stars and you want to try it for yourself. But how do you know if you’re getting the real deal?

1. It should say 100 percent pure Argan Oil, or if it is in a cream or lotion, it should list 100 percent pure Argan Oil as one of the first ingredients. Argan Flora Argan Oil is grown without pesticides according to Moroccan traditions that go back centuries. 
2. It should have a light, nutty scent. If it has no scent at all, it has been processed chemically or by heating, which lowers its quality and effectiveness. An overpowering odor indicates the oil may be old and stale. 
3. Pure Argan Oil should come in a glass bottle, not plastic. The petrochemicals in plastic can leach into the Argan Oil, and you don’t want those on your skin! 
4. Expect to pay at least $25 for a 50ml bottle. There is no such thing as cheap Argan Oil if you want the real thing and all the benefits it can give you. 
5. It should be light, smooth and silky, absorbing easily into your skin and hair.

Once you have a bottle of this precious “liquid gold” in your hands, use it wisely. Place just a few drops in the palm of your hand, then rub your hands together and smooth the oil into your skin, you will experience first-hand the youthful glow Argan Oil can give your from your hair down to your toes.

If you could concoct a magical potion to make you look younger, what would it include? A peek at the label of Argan Anti-Aging Serum will tell you. 

The light and nourishing Argan Anti-Aging Serum starts with pure Argan Oil, the ancient beauty secret of countless Moroccan women’s glowing skin. Then it brings in Onagre oil, also known as Evening Primrose, rich in essential fatty acids that nourish and rejuvenate every skin cell. Next, the great skin balancer, Jojoba, another ancient beauty secret, that regulates your skin’s oil production to keep it supple, never oily. And potent drops of Prickly Pear oil to soothe inflammation, fragrant Rosewood oil to rejuvenate, floral Ylang-Ylang to purify and antioxidant natural Vitamin E.

You don’t need a cauldron, wand or eye of newt for this magical potion. It’s just a click away!

The women of Morocco are known throughout North Africa, the Middle East and Europe as great beauties with flawless skin who dress and adorn themselves in bold colors.

The secret to their radiant skin lies in traditional self-care and skincare practices perfected over centuries.

For example, every week Moroccans of all ages visit the Hammam, where they perform an invigorating cleansing ritual while bonding with family and close friends.

​Argan oil is another beauty secret that has been used by Moroccan women since time immemorial, and is now available in the United States. This light, nourishing oil pressed from the seeds of the Argan tree is nearly odorless. When applied to the skin, Argan oil gives it a resilience and glow that laboratory-produced lotions can never equal. 

If you have tried Argan oil, you know how luxuriously soft it makes your skin. If you have not yet experienced the amazing natural radiance that Argan oil will give you, give it a try. Fifteen million Moroccan women can’t be wrong.
