Argan oil is packed with vitamin E and essential fatty acids. This makes it a complete blessing for anyone with dry, dehydrated and flaky skin. It seals moisture into your skin and keeps it feeling soft and supple for long hours. Since this oil is extremely lightweight, it gets absorbed into the skin like a dream. Hence, it’s wise to include an argan oil serum such as the Lakme Absolute Argan Oil Radiance Overnight Oil-in-Serum in your skincare routine. This lightweight concentrate combines the power of a serum and oil to give you nourished and radiant looking skin.

People with oily and acne-prone skin can immensely benefit by using argan oil-infused products as well. The linoleic acid found in argan oil helps control excess sebum production and heals dry, damaged and inflamed skin (which is touted to be one of the major causes of adult acne). This is a great reason to use an oil-based cleanser such as the Lakme Absolute Argan Oil Radiance Rinse Off Cleansing Oil to get rid of stubborn makeup, dirt and impurities. The lightweight formula won’t clog pores and is extremely gentle on all skin types.
