Jojoba (pronounced ho-ho-ba) Oil Golden is a liquid wax ester used as an effective essential oil carrier and a super-powerful skincare additive.
First used by Native Americans to treat wounds, this all-natural product derived from the Simmondsia chinensis desert shrub contains all kinds of nutrients thought to benefit the body. In particular, skin loves this cold-pressed oil because of its sebum-like properties that balance out natural oils while providing much-needed moisture and nourishment. As such, it finds its way into a plethora of self-care and cosmetics products.
High molecular stability gives Jojoba Oil an extensive shelf life, making it a great addition to your oils collection, ready to dose or dilute your DIY skin and haircare products for years.
