Jojoba oil is a liquid wax derived from the seeds of the jojoba plant. This unique oil is enriched with omega 6 and 9 fatty acids, vitamins A, D, E, and zinc.
Jojoba oil's composition closely mirrors that of the natural sebum produced by your skin. Therefore, it absorbs quickly into your skin, does not clog your pores, and aids in balancing your skin's sebum production.
Jojoba oil serves to soften, nourish, and moisturize both hair and skin. It can be used as a natural after-sun treatment. By combining jojoba oil with essential oils, you can create an oil blend that is even more rich in vitamins for your hair and skin.
You Madu's jojoba oil is organic and cold-pressed. No chemicals or heat were introduced during its production process.
Applications
Jojoba oil can be utilized in the following ways:
- Face Mask: Combat wrinkles and fine lines by blending equal parts of jojoba oil and avocado oil. Apply this mixture to your skin, let it sit for 10 minutes, then rinse.
- Hair Treatment: To add shine to dull hair and to stimulate blood circulation in your scalp, mix 3 tablespoons of castor oil with 1 tablespoon of jojoba oil and apply it evenly over your hair.
- Face Hydration: Create a deeply hydrating facial oil by mixing 12 teaspoons of jojoba oil, 9 teaspoons of rosehip oil, and 12 drops of lavender oil. Apply a few drops to your face and massage gently into the skin.
- Beard Oil: Jojoba oil can prevent and soften an itchy beard. Combine it with argan oil and sweet almond oil for a highly nourishing beard oil.
