Jojoba Oil, pronounced “ho-ho-ba”, is a golden colored liquid wax that is extracted from the Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) plant. This woody shrub is native the southwestern region of the United States.   Jojoba Oil is cold pressed from the seeds of the jojoba plant to ensure the highest quality oil.  This natural oil is rich in antioxidants and vitamins. Below are some ways you can use Jojoba Oil in your daily skin and haircare routine.

Skin Moisturizer

Jojoba Oil absorbs quickly into your skin, does not clog your pores, provides instant hydration and softens all skin types.  Skin dryness occurs when moisture is pulled out of your skin. When applied this natural moisturizer forms an oily layer on your skin that helps trap in moisture and prevent dryness.  You can use Jojoba Oil on your face or as a head to toe moisturizer.

Makeup Remover

Rather than using a traditional face cleanser you can use this all natural oil to remove makeup, dirt and bacteria from your face.   Apply a small amount to a cotton ball and gently massage it over your face.  Your makeup will breakdown leaving you with clean, makeup free skin.

Prevents Razor Burn

Jojoba Oil is an ideal substitute for shaving creams and gels.  This liquid wax coats your skin giving it a smooth surface for the razor to glide over.  This helps eliminate the risk of razor burn and cuts.  To keep your legs silky smooth, after shaving massage your freshly shaven legs with 100% Natural Jojoba Oil. This will help add moisture back to your skin that you may have lost while shaving.

A Massage Oil

Jojoba Oil is an ideal carrier oil and when mixed with your favorite essential oil it creates a custom oil that can be used for massage or aromatherapy.

Other Skincare Uses

In addition to moisturizing your skin, Jojoba Oil can be applied to dry cuticles. Massage a few drops into your cuticles for immediate hydration. Before bed, apply Jojoba Oil to dry feet and cover with socks.  The socks will help lock in moisture the Jojoba Oil provides and you will wake to nourished, moisturized feet.

Deep Hair Conditioner

Our hair is subject to daily styling, shampooing and if you color, hair colorants that can damage the hair follicles. To reverse any damage your hair may incur, deep condition it with 100% Natural Jojoba Oil. This natural oil replenishes moisture and improves the texture of your hair.  Massage a generous amount onto your scalp and into your hair. Let it is sit for a few hours or apply before bed and rinse out in the morning.

Eliminate Dry Scalp

Jojoba Oil adds moisture back to your scalp helping to eliminate dandruff. Apply this natural liquid wax to your scalp and massage it in. A healthy scalp will boost the appearance of your hair.

Hair Shine 

Jojoba Oil can be used as a hair shine or serum.  Apply a few drops to your hair before or after blow drying for an instant shine.
