Jojoba Oil is actually liquid wax rather than an oil and closely resembles the sebum of the skin. It’s rich in nutrients such as Vitamin E and B, antioxidants and essential fatty acids that work together to help repair damaged skin cells, fight premature ageing and provide long lasting moisture and hydration for the skin.
Jojoba Oil penetrates easily into the skin, and is well suited for all skin types, but particularly sensitive, oily and combination skin. It can be effective in controlling acne breakouts.
Common Uses: Jojoba is a very popular carrier oil due to its fantastic skin care properties. As a super effective moisturiser, it is excellent for treating signs of ageing, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Jojoba is also used in many haircare products to help keep hair, soft, shiny and hydrated.
