Are there any side effects or risks with using Argan Oil?

Argan oil does not have severe side effects due to its use. It is a suitable oil even for people with sensitive skin. The most common side effects appear when the oil is overused, resulting in excessive oiliness of the skin and hair.

In isolated cases it may cause rashes for people with nut allergy or people with highly-sensitive skin. Used internally, on rare occasions it can disrupt the digestive system causing severe bloating, diarrhea, loss of appetite, confusion and breakouts.

When you first start using Argan Oil, you should do a 24-hour patch test to a small area of your skin.
