A few weeks ago I meet someone… or, rather, something that I have been having a passionate love affair with – the brand Argan Republic. I have had a longstanding relationship with Argan oil in general, but none have been like the one I have now.
Let me give you a little background info on the brand before we jump into the review part of this story.
Marissa Masterson is the founder of this dazzling brand. She founded Argan Republic when she started blending oils for her own combination skin. After years of trying many natural products and never being satisfied, she concluded that natural oils and essential oils made her skin feel the most radiant, moisturized and clean. She has a passion for health, nature, and the environment. Luckily, she has an affinity for crafting, so this new endeavor is a labor of love. Argan Republic is made of only Certified Organic and Wild Crafted therapeutic grade oils originating from the finest oil distilleries and farms around the world. Marissa prides herself on using only the best oils in purest form – free of additives, chemicals and GMOs. She has also ensured that her oil sources do not use child labor or animal testing.
So, after reading that, you can see why I was so excited to be reviewing a few products from this incredible lineup.
PINK HIMALAYAN SEA SALT SCRUB – LAVENDER LEMON
I have used my fair share of salt scrubs in my beauty quest. Most of them seem to be the same – not much to differentiate the brands. But, this is the first one I have used that incorporated Pink Himalayan Sea Salt. This special salt helps aid in detoxing the skin as well as exfoliating. I use this salt when I am taking a relaxing bath so that I have time to soak in all the goodness of this scrub. I apply it by using the little wooden spoon (how cute is this spoon?) that it comes with, and rub in circular motions all over my body. Then I lay back so I can soak in all the oils and salts left in the water! The Lavender and Lemon scent of this scrub is sublime and perfect for days or nights when you need a little relaxation.
As a beauty blogger, I am constantly testing out all kinds of products so I can give you babes my honest opinion about them. Because of that, my skin has taken a nose dive right back to Acneville. I need to head back to the dermatologist ASAP. I mention this because somehow this scrub has calmed my acne back down in only a few uses. It is like a big, full spa experience in this little jar! Well, little isn’t the right word because this scrub comes in 9 fl. oz. jars which are overfilled and topped with dried rose petals and rosebuds. Each one contains approximately 2 fl. oz. of skin-loving oils.
Ok, ok, I don’t normally like to play favorites, but this oil is my favorite of all the Argan oils I have tried! If you are a long time reader of my blog then you know I have a not so secret obsession with roses & oils. This Regal Argan oil is pure nirvana. Argan Republic’s Limited Edition Regal Rose otto elixir combines Argan oil with nature’s queen of the flowers – the rose. Regal is regenerative, wrinkle-fighting, and healing. I mostly apply this oil in the day when I am not wearing makeup and the night before bed. This oil has become the main character in my nighttime routine. The scent of this oil is something that I can’t even begin to describe. They way it smells and feels on the skin is truly “regal”!
As you can see, my love affair with these products and this brand is true love. Argan Republic also offers a wide range of other Argan oils. Can’t decided which one you want to try? No worries, Argan Republic offers sample sizes, so you may try four or six oils in sample size to find out which works best for you skin!

I am smitten by this brand and its remarkable products. Marissa has truly created something special with Argan Republic. I look forward to seeing this company grow and change the way people think about skincare!
