Discover the amazing benefits of "Liquid Gold"

The women of Morocco have benefited from the use of Argan Oil, ("Liquid Gold") for centuries. They have used it to beautify their hair, nails, and skin. This post will concentrate on how Argan Oil can improve your skin's apperance.

Argan Oil or Argane Oil comes from the nuts grown on the Argania Spinosa tree native to the dry Moroccan desert. One of the reasons Argan Oil is so precious and is often referred to as "Liquid Gold"is because the extraction process is labor intensive. It takes about 20hrs to produce one liter of oil. First the nuts are cracked by using 2 stones and the kernels removed. The kernels are then roasted over a medium heat then cooled. Then using a little water the kernels are grinded into a paste, squeezed between the hands  and the oil extracted. Moroccan women have been involved in the production of Argan Oil for centuries. In a country that has limited women's rights, Argan Oil production does allow an opportunity for some economic autonomy.

Now getting to what Argan Oil can do for your skin.

Dry Skin - Argan Oil is made up of unsaturated essential fatty acids. EFA's cannot be synthesized by the human body so they have to be obtained through diet or skin application. EFA's help prevent loss of cell fluids so the skin holds moisture which is what dehydrated skin has trouble doing. Another component of Argan Oil is, squalene a fat soluable anti-oxidant that parched skin can benefit from. Squalene is part of the cell growth process and attaches to the cell membrane. Its most effective quality is that it's compatible to skin lipids because human seban (oil) is composed  of 25% squalene. So skin-tabulous divas all you with dry skin should definatly make it a priority to use Argan Oil products to hydrate your skin to get that luminous glow!

Anti-Aging - Diva's don't dispair if your battling the signs of aging like lines and wrinkles. Argan Oil is more than up to the task to win the battle. Argan Oil contains sterols which fight skin aging by boosting the skin's metabolism, decreasing inflammation, encouraging moisture retainment, and penetrating the skin deeply and quickly. Another advantage to Argan Oil's sterols is that they work in agreement with human skin's sterols because their chemical elements are similar. So this "liquid gold" is truly "worth its weight in gold" for it's amazing ability to lessen the signs of aging and renew and restore your skin's vitality and glow.

Shea Nut Butter is what dry/dehydrated skin needs.

Discover what Africans have known for thousand of years - the beauty benefits of Shea nut butter.

Shea nut butter comes from the nuts of the Shea Karite trees which grow in Central and West Africa. The nuts are crushed and boiled for hours,  after which is formed the butter. Shea butter, like other butters is high in fatty acids, and it is these fatty acids which make Shea nut butter a superb moisturizing agent.  Shea nut butter will help dry/dehydrated skin retain moisture and elasticity.  Its creamy consistency is quickly absorbed and penetrates the skin yet, it does not clog pores.

Other beneficial uses of Shea nut butter include healing minor cuts and burns, and fading skin discolorations when used over an extended period of time.

People with latex allergies should test any Shea nut butter product since Shea nut butter contains latex.

Why wait another day to take advantage of the skin-tabulous skin benefits of Shea nut butter?  Pamper yourself with a luxurious, creamy, Shea nut butter cream for under $20.00! (product no# 37030 or keyword search- shea nut body butter). http://colormedirect.com/cosmogul

Natural alternative ingredient for brightening and fading un-even skin tone.

For years the solution to fading un-even skin and brightening skin tone have been products formulated with hydroquinone.  However research has suggested that there can be side effects from the minor (redness and burning) to serious (hives, rash, and swelling).

However there is a natural alternative to lighten skin discoloration without the negative side effects. Its an herbal extract - emblica.  Emblica is derived from gooseberries, and for centuries has been a health and beauty aid in India.  Emblica is a highly potent anti-oxident, and is reputed to have the highest content of Vitamin C.  But it's most notable benefit is it's skin-lightening properties on all skin types on all ethnicities.

To obtain the maximum effects of emblica's lightening properties, I recommend a coordinated system of a cleanser, toner, and moisturizer.  This three-fold system (product #62738), is just a click away!
