Premium Golden Jojoba Oil for Skin and Nail Health

Jojoba (pronounced ho-HO-ba) oil is a botanical extract of the seed of the jojoba tree (Simmondsia chinenis), which is technically not an oil but rather a wax ester. The significance of this wax ester is that it is the most similar compound to human skin oil (sebum) found in nature. It is theorized that applying jojoba oil to the skin can "trick" the skin into thinking it is producing enough oil, thereby balancing oil production. This makes jojoba oil a beneficial option for those prone to acne, as it is non-comedogenic.

The benefits of jojoba oil are numerous. It provides all-day moisturization, as it does not evaporate like water-based moisturizers. Jojoba oil is also very stable, as it does not become rancid or lose antioxidants even after prolonged storage. It spreads and absorbs well, and the organic variety is free of pesticides, GMOs, and is sustainably farmed.

Jojoba oil can be used as a moisturizer by adding 5-6 drops to your facial moisturizer, creating a super-moisturizer that helps reduce flakiness and improves the feel of the moisturizer on your skin. It can also be used as a make-up remover, as it is non-irritating and can easily remove eye makeup, foundation, blush, and lipstick.

For those seeking an alternative to lip balm, jojoba oil can be applied directly to the lips, providing an extra-light and non-comedogenic option. Jojoba oil can also be used as a hair conditioner, either mixed into your current conditioner or used on its own in the shower. It can be added to damp hair before drying or applied to dry hair to promote shine. Jojoba oil can also help moisturize the scalp and prevent dandruff.

For men, jojoba oil can be used as a shave prep by applying 8-10 drops or more beneath the shaving cream, helping to prevent razor burn and leaving the skin feeling soft. Additionally, jojoba oil is considered one of the best massage oils, as it is non-comedogenic and a little goes a long way. However, it should be noted that the skin irritation sometimes associated with massage may still promote breakouts.

In summary, jojoba oil is a versatile and beneficial natural product that can be used for a variety of purposes, from moisturizing to makeup removal, hair care, and even shaving and massage. Its unique composition and non-comedogenic properties make it a valuable option for those seeking a natural and effective solution for their skin and hair care needs.
