Description

Jojoba oil's extraordinary ease of absorption, combined with its great stability, makes it an absolutely excellent product among cosmetic oils; it is therefore not simply a vegetable oil used exclusively to combat the unsightly appearance of stretch marks. Jojoba oil also has proven trichological properties: when used on the scalp, it effectively helps free hair follicles clogged with sebum, given its natural tendency to absorb it; thanks to its permeability, hair also gains visibly in shine and manageability. Because of these precious characteristics, it is used in the formulation of high-quality shampoos and conditioners. Although its use is recommended within three years of the production date, in reality, being a polyglyceride (i.e. a true liquid wax), this oil never goes rancid.

Extraction

Jojoba oil is obtained by cold-pressing (and without solvents) the seeds of Simmondsia chinensis. It appears as a clear, golden-yellow, virtually odorless liquid.

Cosmetic benefits

Botany

Jojoba is a shrubby plant with a remarkable longevity (it can exceed two hundred years), which grows wild in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona. It is a woody shrub that can reach two meters in height, with opposite, oval, leathery, blue-green leaves covered with a waxy coating, and small white or yellowish flowers.
