They say that argan oil has a sebum-controlling effect, and when I mix a drop of it into the cream, the oiliness really does seem to decrease.
ConsThe fragrance is a bit unpleasant. I think it might be too drying for those with dry skin.

ConsThere wasn't anything disappointing. Once I misadjusted the amount and applied it to my hair, and it got a bit clumped Other than that, it's a decent oil
TipIt might be a bit lacking for extremely dry skin types! When mixed with a cream and applied as the last step of skincare, it absorbs well without any stickiness!

I have very sensitive skin that is prone to clogged pores, and products like rosehip oil, zero-oil, and Physiogel don't work for me. This oil would be great for people like me.
ConsIt is drying. Those who say it's not drying probably don't have extremely dry skin. I have extremely dry skin, so even after washing my face, I have to put a few drops on at the end, then apply my cream, and then use six layers of a moisturizing seal, but it's still drying. Those who don't have extremely dry skin would likely be satisfied with this product.

Even for those who don't usually get along with cosmetics, I suggest trying it - it brought peace to my hopeless skin. I've also tried hemp seed oil, but it had an unpleasant smell and didn't suit my skin, so I use it for my body and hair. Argan oil is famous for not clogging pores, so I can confidently say that if it suits your skin, you'll be using it for life. The moisturizing effect is excellent, and when used with other products, the boosting effect is just amazing. I've been using it for over a year, and it's been great for my troublesome skin.
ConsSome people use it on its own, but in my case, using it alone made my complexion look worse and made my face too shiny, which was uncomfortable. So I put some toner and a few drops of argan oil in a separate bottle, shake it, and use it - this way, my skin tone looks better, and my skin doesn't feel tight, it's just perfect.
TipIt's great to use argan oil with your suitable basic skincare products. For me, using it with a toner is the best, and it has brought peace to my skin. ☆☆☆ Here's a super tip: after cleansing, fill the sink with lukewarm water, add 2-3 drops of argan oil, and rinse your face. Even without applying anything else, your skin will be completely moisturized and great. Even if argan oil doesn't suit you well, try using it this way, and you'll be satisfied!

It's slightly more moisturizing and heavier than jojoba oil. Among ordinary oils, it's also on the heavier side, so it's recommended for dry skin. It's a cold-pressed, unrefined oil. It's affordable in price. It can be used all over the body, including hair, skin, and face, so it's very versatile. I tend to use about one bottle every two months.
ConsIf you have oily skin or prefer a drier, matte finish, this may not be the best recommendation for you. It doesn't have any fair trade certifications.

The dropper makes it easy to dispense the right amount. It absorbs smoothly and comfortably. If you lightly touch your hair while it's still wet, it will remain soft until the next day. There are no bad hair essence ingredients that can cause acne on the neck or back. Some people may dislike the fragrance, but it's a similar scent commonly found in oils extracted from seeds - a slight herbal, bitter, nutty, and mossy aroma. However, the fragrance dissipates quickly, so it's not bothersome after a short while.
ConsIt has a watery texture and moisture level similar to rosehip oil. For extremely dry skin that needs substantial oil content, it may be a bit lacking. The cap is stiff and difficult to open and close.
TipIf you find hand creams too thick and sticky when your hands are dry, try using this oil instead. Even after washing your hands, the soft, supple feeling will last longer than with hand cream.

I apply it before blow-drying, and my hair feels coated and the oil is evenly distributed.
ConsThe scent... the scent... the scent is quite disappointing... After applying, it's not great ㅠ It must be because it's 100% organic... maybe it's the natural scent of the ingredients... And for those with oily skin, I wouldn't recommend it!! The oiliness can be very visible.

I purchased it because although I had been using rosehip separately due to the niacinamide, I missed the hydration. I'm satisfied with it. I'm using it as a mist-toner-(niacinamide+zinc)-(arbutin+HA)-3 drops of oil+a bit of mist-cream. As you can see, it becomes almost watery when using the mist-toner-serum2, but it gets nicely absorbed. Even after applying the cream, my skin doesn't feel dry in the heater wind tonight. It maintains moisture while providing just the right amount of oiliness. Now my basic skincare routine is settled.
ConsIt has poor spreadability, so I'm using it by mixing a pump of mist or a fingertip-sized amount of toner. Oils are usually like that... It's more watery than the rosehip I used before.
TipWhen the spreadability is poor, try mixing it with a mist (I use a mineral spring water mist) or a toner (I use a hyaluronic acid toner) like I do. Just mixing a little bit makes it spread well. But be careful not to make it too runny!! (It can be a bit more than the photo, the center is the mineral spring water mist) Mixing it with a mineral sunscreen also helps prevent dryness.

The key points are: - The Ordinary Argan Oil has a reasonable price and suitable volume for the author's needs. - The oil has a comedogenic rating of 0, which means it does not clog pores, despite the author's previous hesitation to use argan oil due to oily skin concerns. - The oil provides good moisturization and has anti-inflammatory benefits, helping to calm the author's mask-induced breakouts. - The oil seems to improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, in addition to providing good overall hydration. - The oil is well-absorbed, though not as lightweight as squalane.
ConsI feel a sense of guilt about using this natural product made through arduous labor from the endangered argan fruit. However, I've heard that argan oil production actually helps preserve the trees, as it doesn't require cutting them down. As a consumer, I'll do my best to be mindful and responsible in my consumption.
Tip★For those with oily skin like mine or those who use a lot of skincare products★ The moisturizing properties of argan oil itself are quite high, so if you use too much cream, the breakouts may be due to over-nourishment, not the oil itself. I recommend either reducing one step of your existing skincare routine or mixing the argan oil with a gentle, non-functional product. ★Blending with Squalane★ If you want to use it without feeling too heavy, I often mix one drop of argan oil with two drops of squalane oil. This allows for lighter absorption while still providing a light moisturizing effect.
