How to Use Argan Oil on Your Face: Order, Drops and Mistakes
Use argan oil on the face in a very small amount, as the final step. Start with one drop. Add more only if needed.
Five application steps
- Cleanse your face and pat it dry.
- If you use a moisturiser, apply it before the oil.
- Place one drop in your palm. Add a second or third only if needed.
- Press the oil gently onto the face without rubbing hard.
- During the day, use sun protection as a separate step.
How much is enough
Start with one drop for the whole face. More is not better. If one drop is not enough for even application, add a second, then a third only if needed.
What this oil does
Argan oil is an emollient: it softens and smooths the skin. AZOURANE oil is first press, unrefined, pale gold and nutty in scent. It absorbs quickly, while a fine natural trace can remain because it is an oil.
Three easy mistakes to avoid
- Using too much at once. Start with one drop.
- Using oil as the whole routine. It is a final step, not a replacement for every other product.
- Judging composition by colour or scent alone. Read the INCI label first.
From guide to bottle
For composition and ordering, see 100% Argan Oil, 30 ml. For the label check, read how to check pure argan oil. For application to ends and lengths, open the separate argan oil for hair guide.
Quick questions

After moisturiser, as the final step. If you do not use moisturiser, apply a very small amount to clean skin.
How many drops go on the face?
Start with one drop. Add a second or third only if needed.
Can argan oil replace sun protection?
No. Sun protection is a separate step in a daytime routine.
