Jojoba's Many Uses and Benefits

Jojoba is a liquid wax ester, not actually an oil. It is very similar to the lipid layer of our skin, which is coated with sebum containing 25-30% liquid wax esters. Jojoba readily penetrates the lipid layer of the skin, improving its flexibility and elasticity. Jojoba is non-comedogenic and non-occlusive. It is a natural carrier of Vitamin E and a natural antioxidant. Some people say it is a mild sunblock.
