The Amazing Benefits Of Jojoba Oil

Jojoba oil is not actually an oil but a liquid wax. Derived from the seeds of the natural Jojoba plant (Simmondsia chinensis) which grows in the dry regions of northern mexico and the south western US. This amazing oil contains virtually all of the vitamins and minerals needed for healthy skin and hair and has countless benefits.

With natural emollient properties, it is balancing, highly penetrative, combines readily with sebum and is suitable for all skin types. It is good for treating acne and oily skin as well as dry and dehydrated skin. it is also anti inflammatory, gentle enough to be used on sensitive skin and will keep for ages. An absolute beauty essential 🙂

So now that you’ve rushed out to buy your Jojoba oil what exactly can you do with it?….

1, Jojoba oil makes a great natural moisturiser no matter what your skin type. Shop bought moisturisers can often clog the skin and block pores, contributing to increased acne for those with oily skin and in some cases repeated use of shop bought moisturisers can even dry out your skin. Jojoba oil combines readily with sebum so can be used to moisturise your skin without clogging pores and is also a non greasy, balancing moisturiser for dry skin.

2, Jojoba oil is one of the best natural oils to use for eczema. It contains essential fatty acids, vitamins B and E, plus minerals such as copper, chromium and zinc which work to speed up wound healing, soften dry patches and restore the skin to a healthy condition. The natural anti bacterial and anti inflammatory properties of jojoba oil help to calm the inflammation of eczema and the natural vitamin E helps to reduce any scarring.

3, Anyone who has experienced the unsightly, red, flaky, itchy discomfort of psoriasis will no doubt be scouring the internet for some relief, if you have tried all of the over the counter creams and medications to no avail then maybe its time to try some jojoba oil. Applying Jojoba oil directly to the effected area will provide relief from the itching and irritated symptoms caused by psoriasis.

4, You can’t get rid of scars and stretch marks but you can significantly reduce them. Jojoba oil is the most recommended natural oil to treat stretch marks. The emollient properties of this oil penetrate into the deeper layers of skin to enhance its elasticity, which helps to reduce scars and stretch marks. For extra scar reducing properties try adding a few drops of mandarin and patchouli essential oils.

5, Jojoba oil is a great go-to product if you are experiencing the discomfort of sunburn. It will help soothe the skin if you have sunburn, heat rash or other minor skin irritations and will act as a natural moisturiser to reduce subsequent peeling and flaking.

Jojoba oil can also be used as a cleanser, make-up remover, cuticle oil, body lotion and anti aging serum, it also and has many uses for the hair and scalp…

A must have.
