Jojoba oil being the closest in construction to the human sebum is a natural replacement for it. When the body is unable to produce enough sebum to protect against harsh external elements, jojoba oil can be the perfect skin care solution. Jojoba oil contains essential vitamins for the skin such as Vitamin B, E and key minerals such as zinc, copper. In adulthood, your skin tends to produce lesser sebum hence making the skin dry and dull looking. Jojoba is a natural supplement that can be used for your regular skin care routine.
Jojoba oil helps retain moisture in the skin thereby keeping the skin hydrated and looking fresh. Jojoba oil helps moisturize the skin, without clogging the pores, allowing for a healthy skin type. In addition, it also prevents the buildup of bacteria in the pores of the face, which tend to cause blackheads and breakout of acne.
You can use Jojoba oil as a skin cleanser or makeup remover by adding a few drops onto a cotton pad and gently gliding it along the skin. You can also use it as a massage oil by simply applying the oil onto the skin using clean fingertips. Jojoba oil can also be used on the hair to treat dandruff and help in hair regrowth by simply massaging it into the scalp using your fingertips.
