Jojoba oil is a liquid wax that is pressed from the seeds of the jojoba plant. The oil contains omega 6 and 9 fatty acids, vitamins A, D, E and zinc.
The composition of jojoba oil is very similar to that of the natural sebum that your skin produces. As a result, it quickly absorbs into your skin, does not block your pores and helps to balance your skin's sebum production.
Jojoba softens, nourishes and moisturizes both the hair and the skin. It can be used as a natural after sun. You can mix jojoba oil with essential oils to make an oil that is even richer in vitamins for your hair and skin.
You Madu jojoba oil is organic and cold-pressed. No chemicals and heat were added to the oil during the production process.
