The oil is extracted from the seeds of the jojoba shrub (Simmondsia chinensis), which grows primarily in the arid regions of the southwestern United States and Mexico. The name is actually a bit misleading, because jojoba oil is technically not an oil but a liquid wax. As a result, it has a completely different composition than other vegetable oils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow is Jojoba Oil made?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe seeds of the jojoba bush are harvested and cold-pressed. With cold-pressed oil, no heat above 30 degrees is used during pressing, so that the natural composition is fully preserved. Then the oil is filtered and ready for use. Refined jojoba oil is clear and colorless, while the unrefined variety has a golden yellow color and a light, nutty scent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy is Jojoba Oil so special?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJojoba oil consists for the most part of long wax esters (especially eicoenic acid and docoenic acid esters) rather than regular triglycerides like other oils. This composition is remarkably similar to the sebum that our own skin produces. As a result, jojoba oil is well tolerated by almost every skin type and can help to balance sebum production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of that low content of triglycerides, jojoba oil also has a very long shelf life and hardly oxidizes. Therefore, it is often added to other, more sensitive oils to extend their shelf life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDoes Jojoba Oil Get Stuck In The Cold?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, you can, and that's completely normal. Jojoba oil gradually solidifies at temperatures below about 10 to 15 degrees. You will first see cloudy clouds forming, and in real cold the whole bottle can become thick and white. That's just part of this oil and has nothing to do with the quality. Let the bottle come to room temperature for a while or warm it between your hands, and the oil will become clear and liquid again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBenefits of Jojoba Oil for your skin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable for all skin types\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDue to its sebum-like composition, jojoba oil is well tolerated by almost every skin type, from dry to oily and mixed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHelps balance sebum production\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause jojoba oil is so similar to the body's own sebum, it can help the skin signal that there is enough sebum.

For your hair, massage a few drops into the ends and possibly into the scalp, leave on for about 10 minutes and wash it out with your regular shampoo.
