Shea Terra works with indigenous tribes to discover these potent ancestral plants and minerals and offers these Superhero Ingredients through our concentrated formulas. Argan Oil One of the rarest, most exotic oils in the world, the golden oil of the argan plant is found only in a small region of Morocco. A close relative to the shea tree, the argan fruit kernel produces rich, anti-aging oil high in antioxidant vitamin E, polyunsaturated and fatty acids. The unique combination of antioxidant and moisturizing properties in this oil can help to maintain skin elasticity while preventing moisture loss that can contribute to the aging process. This oil can make the skin look softer while limiting the appearance of stretch marks, under eye circles, burns and wrinkles as well and damage from smoking, pollution or harsh sunlight. It can help to regulate sebum so the skin will not look greasy and manage the body’s pH so the skin is less likely to become irritated. Since 2000, Shea Terra has been on a quest for natural beauty wisdom throughout Africa, exploring remote villages, trekking through miles of desert on camel back, and sailing into the depths of Nubia. Our journey has allowed us to tap into a wealth of indigenous knowledge and share these remote beauty secrets with the world. Through our diverse line of skin and hair care products, you can embark on this journey of beauty wisdom with us. The Cold Pressed Method Preserves Potency Please be aware that our 100% pure, cold-pressed extra virgin oils are not the same as infused oils or essential oils. Distillation is commonly used to derive essential oils from most plants: flowers, trees, vegetables and nuts. The distillation process involves high temperatures, as well as steam and water or a combination of both. For example, plants are sealed in a specialized still as water and/or steam is forced inside. The pressure squeezes out the oil, which is then condensed and collected. Unlike essential oil, which is distilled from the seed, our cold-pressed extra virgin oil is the whole, complete oil cold pressed from the seed. The seeds for our oil are wild harvested by local inhabitants and sent to the mill for pressing before being sent by air to Shea Terra in its most desired virgin state. This method preserves the fragile vitamins and phytonutrients of the plant. Our oil is not pressed by hand until we order it, it’s also not refined or deodorized so it has a unique, natural aroma. The first step to extracting oil is to ground the seeds or nuts into a paste. The paste is then mixed in an effort to make the oils better coagulate. In the cold pressed method, oil extraction relies solely on the pressure. No heat is added to the paste. This differs from heated oil extraction methods, which involve heating the paste. Adding heat to the paste increase the amount of oil produced, but the heating process degrades the quality of the oil. Oil created through heating sometimes loses its color, as well. Cold pressing usually produces lower yield, but higher quality oil. That’s why we prefer the using the cold pressed method for our oils. Is Your Argan Oil the Real Deal? Since high-quality argan oil is costly to source and produce, requiring hours of labor, there are lots of imitation or inferior argan oil out there. If you're paying little for your argan oil, you are probably not getting pure, high-quality argan oil. Argan oil is commonly diluted with oils such as sunflower. Some "argan" oils have been found to not contain any argan oil at all. Argan oil is often diluted by producers in Morocco or by middlemensomewhere between the sale of the oil and the bottling process. Our 100% pure argan oil can be used to determine the authenticity of the texture, feel and smell of argan oil of other brands. 100% pure argan oil has a natural aroma that can smell sour or nutty depending on the time of year it’s pressed. Argan oil that has NO smell is often NOT argan oil at all. If it is, it has been highly heated, refined and deodorized, which denatures the oil and decreases its vitamin content. Argan oil that smells like toast most likely has been roasted, which is great for eating but not for cosmetic use. Practically all argan oil, except ours, is produced from nuts gathered along the ocean shore of Morocco, since that's a well-established trade route for argan oil. Unfortunately, the high salt content in this region produces inferior fruits. The trees that bare our argan oil grow high in the Atlas Mountains where the fruits grow large and healthy. It has been shown that argan oil produced from the fruits in this area is much higher in vitamin E than the oil produced from the fruits along the coast. Shea Terra is founded by Tammie Umbel, an enterprising super mom, who built the company while homeschooling 14 of her children. Shea Terra grew out of Tammie’s vision to develop natural skin care treatments that would not only heal and beautify those who use them, but also empower and enrich the lives of many impoverished villages and families throughout Africa. Since early 2000, Shea Terra Organics has been working with cooperatives and conservation groups to source natural, organic ingredients in a sustainable and ethical way that would create economic opportunities and preserve wildlife. We share these indigenous, time-tested healing ingredients through our breadth of product lines, which include facial care, body treatments, hair herbals and maternity & newborn remedies. ## Features - Delivers deep moisture and improves skin elasticity while restoring softness and shine to dry, damaged hair without leaving a greasy residue - Rich in plant-based squalene and vitamins A and E to support anti-aging benefits and help protect skin from environmental stressors - Cold pressed by hand from Moroccan argan nuts using traditional methods that preserve nutrients and maintain the oil’s natural aroma and potency - Ethically sourced through a women's cooperative in Morocco, supporting traditional handcrafting methods and fair income for local communities ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Asin | B07QH2YM12 | | Best Sellers Rank | #600 in Body Oils | | Manufacturer | Shea Terra Organics | | Product Dimensions | 6 x 4 x 7 inches; 8.8 ounces | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** Shea Terra Organics - **Item Volume:** 4 Fluid Ounces - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 6 x 4 x 7 inches - **Special Feature:** Anti Aging ## Images ![Shea Terra Moroccan Argan Cold-Pressed Extra Virgin Oil | Nutrient-Rich, All Natural & Organic Oil with Anti-Aging Vitamin A and E to Increase Skin Elasticity and Condition Dry & Damaged Hair – 4 oz - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71UCyJ4lIvL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Scent** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are the ingredients organic?** A: Just some basic info, if your concerned about organic sourcing. I too, would be interested in why they don’t carry the organic label. Especially items sourced from along the Nile River. I lived near Cairo Egypt for a year, (expatriate) in New Maddi. The Nile is long (flowing South to North- Aswan to Mediterranean Sea). From North to approx 3 hrs south of Cairo, the Nile River is filthy and polluted. It’s water is used to irritate small farms. We were instructed not go into the Nile River, not to consume water laden produce (lettuce etc), soak all vegetables (yes- carrots) in potassium permanganate to avoid illness. The water and fertilizer wasn’t safe. I explored a lot and saw many small farms along trails in and around Cairo and to the south. I’m unsure where along the Nile the small land owners farm (North/Southern portion) to source their carrot seed oil? Without the organic label and grown along Nile on small farms- that’s enough to convince me to look elsewhere. **Q: The description says that this product is 100% pure Argan oil. So which is it? Tamanu or Argan?** A: Tamanu Oil, 100% Certified Organic indeed despite the misleading description. **Q: Does Argan Oil help improve mature sagging skin?** A: I really, really like my Argan oil, my skin is still pretty good; I use the Argan as a preventative. Best thing for mature sagging skin is: muscle structure, collagen, and foods that contain estrogen (if appropriate for your body). **Q: Is the bottle plastic or glass? Thanks!** A: It's a glass bottle. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ smoooooth and moisturizing *by on Reviewed in the United States March 16, 2026* LOVE this oil!!!! It is so smooth, soft and moisturizing! It does not leave you feeling greasy at all, absorbing into my skin. The scent is very nice and not overwhelming. I would definitley buy it again. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seriously inlove--Thank you Shea Terra for this amazing product! *by on Reviewed in the United States September 9, 2015* I have combination skin that is acne prone. I use Retin A and when I am on it my skin is super sensitive (I use it on and off since you're only supposed to use it for 2 months at a time--read up on it, most doctors won't even tell you this information, but it harms your liver tremendously if you use it for more than 2 months at a time). Anyway, regardless of whether I am on Retin A or not this oil is perfect for my skin. One squirt is enough for my whole face. I usually put a moisturizer on top of it after it's been absorbed (about 5 minutes).I also use this on my body: 1 pump of my lotion + 1 pump of argan oil per each body part and my skin has never been so soft and smooth before.So far I've only used it once in my hair after swimming in a pool at a BBQ. I put a squirt in my hand and ran it through my hair as best I could and focused on my ends. I did that several times and when I shampooed my hair it didn't feel stripped like it usually does after being in a highly chlorinated pool all day.I've also noticed that my cuticles and hangnails are significantly dimished...Usually I have a TON of hangnails that I pick at (gross I know), but since I don't have anymore hangnails there is nothing to pick at, so my hands look great!What can I say...this stuff is amazing!PS--I also purchased a few other brands of argan oil on here and they were all rancid. This is the only one that I received that was organic, cold pressed, and fresh. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for my sensitive skin *by on Reviewed in the United States May 8, 2012* Update - 11/27/12I ordered a second bottle and this one is very smooth. It also has a dropper lid instead of a pump, which works much better for this thick, creamy oil. I am still using it as a face moisturizer, and while my skin hasn't become perfect, it stays moisturized without adding awful chemicals to my skin, which I can't say for most other moisturizers.**************************************************************************************I've had this tamanu oil for three months now. I got it because I have very sensitive skin and it's natural and organic. The consistency of the oil has always been odd to me. It's oily but also grainy. Since this oil comes in a bottle with a pump, and the graininess clogs the pump, making it ineffective, I'm hoping mine is a fluke. For anyone else who's tried it, was it grainy for you?Using it to moisturize my face after a shower, it leaves tiny bits of the graininess all over my skin, which I have to wipe off once the oil's absorbed in. I don't like that part because it looks dirty and I wonder how much of the oil (& my money) is wasted in clumping/graininess. Still, I really like this oil and am willing to give it another shot to see if the graininess is atypical.Why I love this oil: I cut the tip of my thumb with a mandoline 5 days ago. It was fairly deep and in a slit/"v" shape. Gross, bloody, and painful. I used neosporin on it with a band-aid for the first 3 days (cleaning & changing at least 1x/day) with little change in the size of my cut and left it bare yesterday. Last night, I decided to try a little tamanu oil in place of neosporin. This morning, it looks like either side of the cut has begun growing back together so my thumb doesn't look like it's splitting in half down the middle. I am impressed. That's enough reason for me to buy another bottle once this one runs out. If the next bottle is grainy, I'll just return it and try another brand. ## Frequently Bought Together - Shea Terra Moroccan Argan Cold-Pressed Extra Virgin Oil | Nutrient-Rich, All Natural & Organic Oil with Anti-Aging Vitamin A and E to Increase Skin Elasticity and Condition Dry & Damaged Hair – 4 oz - Shea Terra Organics Rose Hips Black Soap Deep Pore Facial Wash | Anti-Aging, Anti-Acne Wonder Soap | All Skin Types - 4 oz - Shea Terra Organics Rose Hips Replenish Face Crème | Daily Moisturizer Spa Treatment | All Skin Types – 2 oz --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/124843368-shea-terra-moroccan-argan-cold-pressed-extra-virgin-oil-nutrient](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/124843368-shea-terra-moroccan-argan-cold-pressed-extra-virgin-oil-nutrient) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-07-06*
