The main benefits of using jojoba oil on the skin is because of its moisturising, skin-soothing and hydrating effects. It is very versatile and can be use on all different skin types. The reason jojoba oil is so moisturising and well absorbed is because it’s pH level is nearly identical to that of our own skin’s natural moisturiser, sebum.

Jojoba is rich in vitamin E, an antioxidant, which means it can prevent damage from free radicals and prevent oxidisation of substances that can clog the pores on the skin. It also contains Vitamins A, B1, B2 and B6.

Jojoba can also be used as a conditioner as it nourishes and protects dry and treated hair.
