Is it called something else or am I missing it? I don't see argan oil listed in the ingredients. And why is it called a cleansing butter?

Well, aren't you the sleuth, @Snow Kitten!  Great catch.  The other oils used are much less expensive.  

I noticed, too, in the sugar scrub that argan oil is the fourth or so lipid.  The first is soybean oil which is a fraction of the cost of argan oil.  It has great properties and there is nothing wrong with it all.  I use it a lot in emulsified sugar scrubs, love the stuff.  I can get 16oz of that for around $6-$8 whereas argan oil, last I checked, was over $20 for the same amount.  The other lipids, Shea, coconut oil are also significantly less in cost.  

Kind of surprising, I'd say.

Thanks for responding Bella. I messaged Josie Maran Cosmetics on facebook and asked, waiting to respond. I'm hoping it's just an error, otherwise it would be very deceving to sell...

It DOES have argan oil in the body butter. The ingredients you posted are for Whipped Argan Oil Body Cleansing Butter and NOT the body butter. It's a misprint.

bordercollielover,

that is the ingredients listed on the 4 piece strawberries and cream. the ingredients as listed here: http://www.qvc.com/Josie-Maran-Decadent-Strawberries-&-Cream-Body-Collection.product.A272773.html

If it is incorrect, do you know where i can find the correct ingredients?

A strawberry whipped body butter would be luscious.

Yes, you posted the ingredients to the body cleanser, not the body butter. And I think it is a misprint, because all of the other body butter cleansers DO list argan oil (argania spinosa). You can see them listed here: http://www.qvc.com/Josie-Maran-Argan-Oil-8oz-Cleansing-Body-Butter-&-2oz-Body-Butter.product.A262118...

Here is a picture of my actual box listing the ingredients I listed are indeed the body butter and not the cleanser. Again, it does not list argan in the body butter.

(sorry for the poor quality lighting)

That's weird. My box says the same, but I'm still going with misprint, because all of the other body butters do list argan spinosa.

@Snow Kitten Did they ever get back to you on this issue? I looked at my package as well, and no argan oil listed in the body butter.
