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! Smiley Happy

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