Great product for brightening your skin

I received a sample of this at Sephora a while back and finally decided to sample it a few months ago. Oh boy, was I ever impressed! It brightening up my skin, giving this glowing from within glow on my face. I wasn't to able find a product that give this specific glow before. I'm not one to spurge big $ on products but I did for this one. Bought at Sephora for $72 for 30ml.

An intensely hydrating treatment.

This is an intensely hydrating treatment that left my skin feeling soft and well moisturized. It's milky white and absorbs into the skin almost immediately. For my normal to combination skin its a bit too much for daytime wear but perfect for night. I could see this working really well for someone with dry skin. I would have rated this higher than I did however something in this product caused an irritation and made my skin turn red. Looking at the list of ingredients I think it might have been the citric acid that caused my skin to get irritated. I also find that my skin reacts better to regular, pure, cold pressed argan oil. This did not plump up my skin and give me that nice glow that Agran oil gives on its own even though it was more expensive. For that reason as well as the fact that this irritated my skin I won't be using this product again.

Je vais racheter ce produit pour sûre

Je viens de découvrir la marque Josie Maran et je suis très contente. J’ai acheté sur le site en duo avec la crème visage ce qui vous revient bcp moins cher. Ce genre de sérum s’utilise am et soir avant la crème. Qques goutes (2-3) ds la main on frotte et on tapote avec nos mains notre visage partout. Sèche très vite et la peau est hydratée à l´instant!

The milk/oil part in this product keeps separating but that's the least of the worries with this product. You are essentially getting argan oil for a very very steep price. 1 oz of product for $70. Also, if you are thinking of adding this to your daytime routine, forget about it because it's simply too heavy.

Basically you’re looking at a formula of 100% Pure Argan Oil suspended in purified water. The formula is supposed to be just as hydrating as the original Argan Oil but the water gives the product a lighter consistency that absorbs easily. Not that the original formula didn’t absorb easily but one of the nicest things about Pure Argan Milk Intensive Hydrating Treatment is you’ll feel quite alright using at as a daily and nightly treatment versus the original formula which isn’t particularly friendly for AM use as it is a bit rich.
I have very dry skin and I have to say this isn’t nearly as good Argan Oil in terms of the hydration it provides. It’s fragrance free and it absorbs instantly into my skin. The texture reminds me of a thick, congealed gel. It feels very luxurious and it does soften skin without leaving a film on my skin. However, Argan Oil is most definitely the more hydrating product of the two formulas. I do like I can use this as a serum of sorts in the morning and following up with my other skin care products and not worry about it being too rich or concentrated. As my friend and reader so kindly pointed out in the comments below, this is actually supposed to be used as layer serum. So this first followed by the original Argan Oil is the proper application process which is suggested on the box. I think this is kinda pointless as really they are the same product just in a different formulation so I don’t really see the point of layering but it seems a necessary evil to get the best moisture for me…!
I think Josie Maran Pure Argan Milk Intensive Hydrating Treatment might be a nice pick up for those with oily skin who are afraid of the original formula. However, for those with drier skin who do like the original formula you should stick with it as this version is not anymore hydrating plus it is simply a diluted formula of the original and more expensive!
