Benefits of Jojoba for Face, Skin & Hair

Jojoba Oil, the perfect ingredient for the ultra-purist’s makeup bag! This golden-colored liquid is extracted from the seed of the jojoba plant - a woody shrub covering 40,000 acres of desert in the south-west regions of U.S. It’s odorless, colorless, a cinch to apply, and has uncountable beauty benefits. 

Jojoba is a rich fruit containing almost all of the nutrients essential for a healthy skin and hair: Vitamin E, copper, B-complex, zinc, selenium, iodine, and chromium. Plus, jojoba is gentle enough to be used on sensitive skin without causing any allergic reactions. Jojoba acts as a miracle when it comes to a shiny, unhelpful T-zone. This means that it caricaturists the activity of your body’s natural oils, hence your skin won’t overdo it.
Here are some of the best uses of this multi-purpose beauty must-have: 

Face Moisturizer

Use jojoba as your routine or overnight facial moisturizer. The jojoba oil may leave a slight sheen initially, but just blot away residual oil to lower excess moisture. 4-6 drops on skin are sufficient for a daytime moisturizer.

Hair Conditioner

Refill moisture and improve the texture of your hair with jojoba! Its oil is great for dry scalps and help get rid of dandruff in a short while. Apply it to add shine and softness to your hair naturally, or in place of an anti-frizz product to manage rough hair.  

Facial Cleanser

Jojoba can also be used as your daily face wash. Apply a few drops onto dry skin, allow it to set, and then rinse your face simply with water. This will help clear away all the impurities, which the oil extracts from the surface of your face and neck.

Scar And Stretch Mark Reducer

Ugly skin issues including scars, scabs and stretch marks may be minimized by doing massage with the vitamin-E rich oil into the affected areas. And, it may quicken the healing process of lesions and cause scars to fade over time.

Anti-Acne gel

Get clearer skin with jojoba’s anti-microbial properties. It contains iodine that may fight harmful bacteria growth causing pimples, blackheads, and breakouts.

Cuticle oil

For home manicure -pedicure, use jojoba as a natural alternative to cuticle oil and foot cream. Spread a few drops on the bottoms of your feet post-bath to soften any cracked or dry areas!

Anti-Aging Serum

Trust the powerful antioxidants in jojoba oil that help smooth fine lines and wrinkles. Just apply a few drops with a cotton ball and dab it around your eyes, mouth, and neck to get a more youthful glow.

Sunburn Relief Lotion

If you have the problem of sunburn, Jojoba can help you rid of. The oil has long been used in ancient medicine to treat sunburn, and other minor skin irritations. It makes you more comfortable and helps reduce flaking and peeling of the skin.
Body Lotion 
Try jojoba oil out as an alternate to your regular body moisturizer. Massage a few drops of the oil just after a bath. Lock in the hydration benefits by adding a layer of any natural cream over jojoba oil. This will help reduce winter itch and chapped skin, as the anti-inflammatory properties of the oil work to lower dryness and irritation.

Makeup Remover

Jojoba oil is a great makeup remover. Waterproof mascara and liquid liner can be wiped easily using jojoba as an eye makeup remover. It also helpful for clearing away foundation, powders, and stubborn lip and cheek stains.

Shaving Gel

Not only the beauty benefits of jojoba revolve around females, it is also of great use to the males. Apply the oil to soften the skin and provide a smooth landing for your razor. It makes for an easy shave and you’ll escape the pains of razor burn and skin redness.

Hair Regrowth Serum

Jojoba oil may de-block hair follicles that can in turn reduce hair loss and promote more hair growth. The antioxidant qualities of this oil may also help protect your scalp and hair from breakage, split ends, and future damage.  

De-Tangling Cream

If your hairs are pretty knotty, dry, or super curly, add a couple drops of jojoba oil onto your towel-dried tresses. It’ll help you get a comb through your locks, and they’ll be much more manageable.
