Garden of Wisdom's Argan Oil is 100% pure and certified organic. Imported from Morocco, our argan oil is rich and high in essential unsaturated fatty acids, making it great for improving the health and youthfulness of skin. Soothing and anti-inflammatory, argan oil calms irritated and swollen skin. It heals damaged skin and assists in treating skin conditions such as eczema. Perfect for sensitive and dry skin, argan softens rough skin, leaving it smooth and touchable.
This oil smells of Argan nuts. Please do not expect a "refined", less rich oil. Due to the nature of this oil, it sometimes has a very strong smell of Argan and other times it does not. It depends on the seasonal batch.

Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients
Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life. Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible
Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.
Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt
Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.

Loving My GOW Oils!
I have used Jose Maran argan oil for years, and recently ordered a few sample oils from GOW. Now I have a new addiction. They are all so good that I can't even say that I love one more than the other. I ordered argan, jojoba, black raspberry, and a combo mix called Clarify and Rejuvenate Oil. OH MY GOSH! I think i'm in oil heaven. These oils are not only giving me great hydration, but are minimizing fine lines and wrinkles and making my skin look like a baby's bottom, and it can't get more smooth than that. Right? Since i'm alternating these oils, I don't know which one is fading away a few dark spots on my face that have been there for a long time. The spots have almost disappeared. I will continue to use these oils that I have, then order more when I run out, and as I write this, I already have my cart loaded to the max with other oils I want to try along with these that I have. For years I have used argan oil and I found it to be so good, but I didn't realize that these other oils could do as much if not more for my skin. I will continue to buy argan as long as I live. I also am in love with the jojoba oil that is also good for my hair. Also, I trust GOW completely and know that I will always receive fresh and new products that haven't been on the shelf for a long time and smelling bad. Thanks GOW for all of your wonderful products.
WE LOVE that you love our Argan Oil! And that you are trying out other oils too :) Thank you for your review!

Glad I tried it!
This was my first time using this so I can only go by what I know so far. I really like this oil for two reasons. It works great for my hair, which is why I bought it...but it also does wonders for my twitchy, eczema-prone skin. I only bought the small size so when it's gone I will definitely buy the bigger bottle. I was a bit hesitant because of the disclaimer about the smell, since I am sensitive to that but it did not have much of an odor at all and it did not bother me. The fact that I can use it on both skin and hair makes this a keeper for me.
We're so glad you love this oil! It is one of our best sellers!
Skin is like smooth glass... non-invasive... simple and easy.... affordable... great stuff
What can I say? Garden of Wisdom's products are always lovely. This is one of the light, exfoliating products that gives an immediate glow with a finish like smooth glass, without any over-drying (or even any drying) effects).
Even my dentist and hygienist complimented my skin a few weeks ago.
I've been a GoW customer since my late 20s and I'm now 57. My skincare needs have, obviously, changed. However, as my skincare (and haircare) needs change, GoW always gives me what i need, based on what my skin needs.
I cannot do without Markey and Garden of Wisdom. No one will give you the personalized and individualized treatment services, clean products, clean raw ingredients, and custom formulations... Especially at a very affordable cost and fast shipping.

Love the progeline peptide repair serum
I love this serum! I’ve tried many things over the years but this takes the cake!
I am falling in love with the texture of GOW products. This is lightweight and GENTLE formula for mild acne and redness, I am still in the works of finalizing my routine but this is HERE to STAY! Honestly it's impossible to even find a similar product with this good of formulation without the excess ingrinets that can be sneaky and cause problems.

Great Overnight Jumpstart To Hairgrowth
I enjoy using this as an overnight scalp jumpstart to hair growth. It smells lovely and even though a little more heavy than other follicle stimulators, as it is intended to be rinsed out after overnight, it contains high end ingredients of competitor brands plus even better ingredients not found on the market. My scalp feels rejuvinated each use :)

There's something about coconut vinegar that just hits right...
I LOVE to close my eyes and spray all of the Coco tonics on my face after washing it. It smells amazing and makes it so less is more as you move forward with serums and creams. It's like self-care in a spritzer.

Gianna, you should be a writer; your description is absolutely spot on!😊
You painted such a beautiful visual, and we’re so grateful for this fantastic review.
Thank you!
Markey 😊❣️
It is the most DIVINE of all the serums I've tried at GoW, not only due to it's efficacy, but the scent takes you straight into a rose garden on a mild spring day. Lovely feeling on my skin and to my senses.
Gianna,
What a beautiful way to describe the Rose Stem Cell & Peptide Serum, “a scent to rival all scent-sations”! We’re thrilled you’re loving the Rose Stem Cell Serum, both for its feel and how it transports you.
Thank you for this lovely review!

This serum is amazing!! I cannot stress enough how I've truly tried so many different products on my face, and GoW is the only company that has me returning every time wondering why I tried anything else. This eye serum is exceptional. It is not tacky - dried clear - and totally refreshes my eyes in a way no other serum has even come close to. I've used it for a few years now and cannot go without it.
Gianna,
This is my favorite eye product (Beautiful Eyes Serum w/ReguAge). When I apply this to my upper orbital bone (eye) and gently press and push up while holding for several seconds, majikal things happen. This is assuming
you have developed hooded upper eyelids. If not, preemptive strike.
Your GoW Team wishes you the very best in your incredible skincare journey
I’ve been using this oil for years. As someone in their 40s and living in the desert, this oil gives a gentle hydration, supporting perimenopause skin, without being greasy or heavy on my sensitive skin type.
Hi Sharon
Thank you for such a thoughtful review and for sharing the results you experienced over time.
It’s the kind of feedback that genuinely helps others feel confident in trying this oil blend!
