Moroccan Argan Oil in Winter: A Simple Skin and Hair Routine
THE WINTER EDIT · Prophetic Blends
Winter hair and skin care can be simple. If you enjoy a light layer of oil in your routine, Moroccan argan oil offers a way to soften the feel of dry hair ends or finish a moisturising step without adding a long list of products.
What is it?
Argan oil is obtained from argan kernels. Prophetic Blends offers organic Moroccan argan oil as a cosmetic product for skin and hair. Cosmetic argan oil should be used according to its own label; it is not interchangeable with a culinary oil intended for food.
Why include it in your winter routine?
An oil can help soften skin and hair and act as a finishing layer in a care routine. It does not supply water in the way a water-based moisturiser does, so applying more and more oil is not always the answer to dry-feeling skin. Choose the amount and routine according to what your skin tolerates.
How to use it: a practical starting point
- Patch test before first use and read the product directions.
- For skin, start with a small amount over slightly damp skin or after your usual moisturiser, avoiding the eyes.
- For hair, rub a drop or two between your palms and smooth over the ends, then assess the result before adding more.
- Keep the dropper from touching skin or hair directly so the remaining oil stays clean.
A simple winter serving or routine
For a quick hair-finishing routine, towel-dry gently after washing, use your normal conditioning products and smooth a tiny amount of argan oil through the ends. Fine hair may need less than thick hair. Start sparingly: it is easier to add another drop than remove an oily coating.
How to choose the right product
Look for the stated ingredient and intended cosmetic use, then choose by your skin and hair preferences. A single-ingredient oil may suit some routines, but it is not automatically better for everyone. The product page shows the current bottle size and instructions.

Storage tips for the colder months
Close the bottle after use and keep it in a cool place away from sunlight or radiator heat. Avoid leaving the dropper open on a wet bathroom surface. Follow any period-after-opening or storage instructions on the label.
A common question
Is argan oil a sunscreen? No. Use appropriate sun protection as a separate step. An oil also does not replace a cleanser or treatment prescribed for a skin condition.
Before you use it
For external use only. Patch test, avoid eyes and stop if irritation occurs. Seek professional advice if dryness or irritation persists. Do not use a cosmetic oil as a food product.
