Jojoba Oil
Highlight
A skin-identical liquid wax that closely resembles skin's own oils — non-comedogenic, exceptionally stable, and a gentle base for facial oils, makeup removal, and dilution.
Description
Jojoba is technically a liquid wax ester whose structure closely resembles skin's own oils, so it absorbs cleanly without clogging pores or leaving a greasy residue. It is non-comedogenic and exceptionally stable, which makes it a gentle, long-lasting base for facial oils, makeup removal, cuticle care, and diluting essential oils — and a good choice for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Single-ingredient oil with no additives, fillers, or synthetic ingredients. Packaged in a cobalt-blue glass bottle with a treatment pump. Cruelty-free and bottled in Minnesota, USA.

Benefits & Uses
Resembles Skin's Own Oils: Jojoba's wax-ester structure closely resembles skin's natural sebum, so it absorbs cleanly and feels light rather than greasy.
Non-Comedogenic: Won't clog pores — a gentle choice for daily facial use and for oily, combination, or sensitive skin.
Exceptionally Stable: One of the longest shelf lives of any carrier oil, so it stores well and resists going rancid.
Gentle, Multi-Use Base: Works as a facial oil, makeup remover, cuticle conditioner, and stable base for essential oil blends.
How to Use & Dilution
Essential-Oil Dilution Ratios
Facial Oils (1–2%): Add 3–6 drops of essential oil per 1 oz (30 ml) of jojoba.
Body Care (3–5%): Add 9–15 drops of essential oil per 1 oz (30 ml).
Targeted Areas (10%): Add 30 drops of essential oil per 1 oz (30 ml) for spot use.
How to Use Jojoba Oil
Facial Oil Base: Mix 2–3 drops of an essential oil, such as Frankincense or Rose, with a few drops of jojoba, then smooth over clean skin in the morning or evening.
Makeup Remover: Apply a little to a cotton pad and gently wipe away makeup — jojoba dissolves makeup while conditioning skin; no harsh cleansers needed.
Cuticle & Nail Conditioner: Massage a drop into each cuticle to soften and condition.
Hair & Scalp Conditioning: Massage into the scalp and dry ends; leave on before shampooing for a conditioning treatment.
Pairs Well With
Pairs well with Frankincense or Rose for facial oils, Lavender for gentle blends, or Tea Tree for spot care.
