Jojoba is a highly penetrating wax that closely resembles human sebum, an oily skin moisturiser produced by the sebaceous glands.
Jojoba oil is very stable, non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic, making it excellent for sensitive skin.
It is often used to treat cold sores, acne and psoriasis.
Try rubbing a few drops on your hands and putting it through your hair to give it more gloss. Jojoba is easy to wash out so can be used as a hair-oil pack too.
