Argan Tree Ingredient of LUXES Skincare
The Argan Tree : A Symbol of Life and Resilience
The Argan tree (Argania spinosa), often called the Tree of Life, has a deep cultural and historical significance in Morocco. This remarkable tree thrives exclusively in the arid and semi-arid regions of Morocco, particularly in the Argan Forest, which UNESCO has recognized as a Biosphere Reserve. Its ability to survive and flourish in harsh desert climates symbolizes endurance and vitality, making it a treasured natural resource.
Nutritional and Skincare Benefits of Argan Oil
Argan oil, extracted from the nuts of the Argan tree, is rich in vitamin E, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants. These components are highly beneficial for skin health. Vitamin E acts as a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from damage caused by free radicals and environmental stressors such as UV rays and pollution. Essential fatty acids help maintain the skins moisture barrier, keeping it hydrated, soft, and supple. Additionally, the oils anti-inflammatory properties soothe irritated skin and can assist in reducing signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles.
For centuries, the indigenous Berber people of Morocco have used Argan oil not only for skincare but also for hair care and culinary purposes. Its lightweight texture allows for quick absorption without clogging pores, making it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Regular use of Argan oil can improve skin elasticity, reduce hyperpigmentation, and promote an overall youthful glow.
Innovation in Skincare : Argan Stem Cells and Liposome Technology
Building on the natural benefits of Argan oil, the pharmacists behind LUXES in Zurich, Switzerland, have taken skincare innovation a step further by incorporating stem cells derived from the Argan tree into their products. Stem cells have the potential to stimulate skin regeneration and repair, but their large size typically prevents them from penetrating deeply into the skin.
To solve this, LUXES employs advanced liposome technology. Liposomes are tiny, microscopic carriers that encapsulate the stem cells, allowing them to pass through the outer layers of the skin and reach the dermis effectively. Once delivered, these stem cells promote the production of collagen and elastinproteins essential for maintaining skin firmness, elasticity, and smoothness. This technology enables LUXES products to rejuvenate skin from the inside out, restoring its natural resilience and youthful appearance.
The Rarity and Value of Argan Stem Cells in Skincare
Because the Argan tree is rare and only found in specific regions of Morocco, and due to the complex process required to extract stem cells, LUXES products are produced in limited quantities. This exclusivity, combined with the advanced technology used, makes LUXES highly sought after by skincare enthusiasts who desire effective and natural skin rejuvenation.
LUXES products can be purchased at 3 Rimping branches: Mae Rim, Nim City and Mee Chok.
