How can you tell if the Active Argan platinum contains silicones or coconut oils or any other oils that typically clog pores? I read the ingredients but I am not a chemist!

@bargainsgirl Did you check online or on the pkg.? Sometimes even Google has more info.

I tried it once and didn't like it. It smelled weird and did absolutely nothing.

@Still Raining Active Argan doesn't seem clean to me...lots of additives. I look for organic argan at Trader Joe's or WholeFoods.

Re: Active Argan - Where is Morgen Schick????

Hello - Have been a loyal customer of the Active Argan line, following (and trusting) Morgen Schick for the last ten years, as being the face, knowledge and integrity of the line. Now she is apparently "Gone Like The Wind" from AA and HSN. What happened to her being the face of Active Argan? I so trusted her integrity and knowledge, and am very disappointed and may no longer purchase AA because of this.

The new on air rep is actually quite good, knows the products well and is very qualified, she is an esthetician.

Morgan was just on air last week.

Morgan hasn't left. She has hired someone who understands her products to help her. It gives her a little break. No reason to panic.

I am not at all convinced of that. First, why wouldn't they just say that; second - there is no mention of Morgen on the AA website, FB page or HSN. She used to have videos all over the AA FB page. It is like any connection she had the last ten years to the line is just gone. I really think we loyal customers are entitled to some kind of explanation.

Where is Morgen - she has been the integrity and passion behind this line for ten years??? Why didn't HSN even mention her?

Morgen ( to my knowledge) has moved on to pursue other endeavors. She is not representing AA any longer. On her last show, as it was closing, she did announce that she would continue to use AA but was moving on.

Yes, Morgen was wonderful and extremely responsive and of course, very trustworthy. I will miss her a great dea l but I do believe that we all should give Tiffany a chance.

I too am an AA user and will continue for now.

Morgen will be extremely missed but she will keep us all posted on her new journey!
