Fermented argan oil

On the sunlit plains of Morocco, an ingredient is born that modern biotechnology transforms from an ordinary plant extract into a highly effective cosmetic treasure. This fermented oil is obtained from the seeds of the argan tree and processed using the microorganism Pseudozyma epicola. Fermentation changes the structure of the oil, allowing its nutrients to be absorbed more easily so that the skin can benefit from more of them. The result is a pure biological extract that combines the traditions of ancient Morocco with modern cosmetic innovation, without the need for synthetic additives.

The way this fermented ingredient works is complex, yet its benefits for the skin are simple and effective. Its main role is to provide intensive hydration and restore the skin barrier, which is essential for protection against external factors. It also acts as a powerful antioxidant, neutralising free radicals and actively slowing down cellular ageing. Fermentation increases the concentration of beneficial substances, enabling the oil to soothe irritated skin and refine its texture without leaving a greasy film.

We particularly recommend this ingredient for dry, dehydrated and sensitive skin that needs extra nourishment and regeneration. It is equally suitable for mature skin, which benefits from its anti-ageing effects, and for oily or acne-prone skin, as it is non-comedogenic and does not clog pores. Its balanced properties make it a versatile skincare ingredient for all skin types, including children's skin, helping to keep skin supple, smooth and youthful.

Research confirms that argan oil is effective in improving skin elasticity. A study published in Clinical Interventions in Aging (Bensouda et al., 2015) demonstrated that regular use of pure argan oil significantly improves skin elasticity, helping the skin retain moisture and making it more supple, smoother and less prone to wrinkles.
