What if you could replace your makeup remover, facial moisturizer, massage oil, carrier oil, shaving cream, lip balm, and hair conditioner all at the same time with a single natural and organic product? You’d be surprised by how many uses you can get out of jojoba oil. This superfood for the skin contains high levels of skin-nourishing nutrients, such as vitamin E, B vitamins, and key minerals including zinc, copper, chromium, silicon, and iodine. Best of all, it’s non-comedogenic, which means it won’t clog your pores. Here are a few ways jojoba oil can do wonders for your skin and hair:
Just apply a few drops of jojoba oil to a cotton ball. The oil quickly and effectively removes makeup from your eyes, lips, and skin without leaving any oily buildup or residue. Since jojoba oil contains high levels of ceramides, it also seals the moisture in your skin, keeping it hydrated. (Related: 10 Beauty Uses Of Jojoba Oil For Skin And Hair.)
You don’t need costly anti-aging products when you have jojoba oil. It mimics the skin’s natural oil (sebum) more effectively than any other oil or formula. A lack of sebum causes many of the most common skin issues such as dry, flaky patches, and premature fine lines and wrinkles, and jojoba oil makes for a perfect replacement. It provides the ideal balance of natural oils, smooths wrinkles, and rejuvenates skin.
Whether you want to soothe your sore and tired muscles or just want to pamper yourself after a long day, few things can make you feel rejuvenated as effectively as a relaxing massage. With its non-greasy texture, jojoba oil makes for an excellent body and scalp massage oil. You can even use it to dilute calming essential oils to make a soothing massage oil blend.
Compared to other carrier oils, jojoba oil has a much longer shelf life due to its low triglyceride content. Its soothing and moisturizing properties perfectly complement the potent therapeutic qualities of any essential oil it is paired up with. In fact, jojoba oil is one of the most popular carrier oils on the market.
Toss the can! Jojoba oil moisturizes skin and allows a razor to glide effortlessly, so you’ll enjoy the closest shave possible without aerosols or costly shaving creams. Try adding a few drops of your favorite relaxing essential oils to help prevent razor burn. With its natural healing and moisturizing properties, you can even use it in place of an aftershave lotion.
Your lips are three times more sensitive than your regular skin, which is why it needs all the tender loving care it can get. If you want to avoid dry, cracked lips, simply apply one to two drops of jojoba oil directly to your lips to replenish lost moisture. You can even make your own DIY lip balm recipe by mixing equal parts jojoba oil and melted beeswax.
Jojoba oil adds shine, softens hair, moisturizes the scalp, detangles and prevents broken hairs and split ends, and even supports the growth of healthy hair. By rubbing a few drops between your hands and gently massaging onto your scalp and through your hair, you’ll disperse the oil evenly. You can even add a few drops to your regular hair conditioner if you’re not ready to discard conditioner entirely.
