Organic Argan Butter
Cold Pressed from Organic Argan in Morocco, the butter has a sweet scent and sublimely soft feel for use direct on the skin or in cosmetic formulation. The Argan tree (Argania spinosa), is a tree indigenous to Southwest Morocco. The tree is a relic species of the Tertiary Period (about 65 to 1.6 million years ago), due to its ability to remain in a state of dormancy in time of drought as well as bear harsh conditions and poor soil. The life span of an Argan Tree is from between 125 and 250 years and Argan Trees do not reach fruiting maturity until 50 years.
Due to Argan Butter's extraordinaty characterisitics it is considered to one of Morocco's miraculous resources and is locally known by the Berber people as the "Tree of Life" as without it many creatures would not be able to live in the semi-arid desert of South Morocco.
