Jojoba Oil

Jojoba oil is not actually an oil but is the liquid wax produced in the seed of the jojoba plant. A shrub native to southern arizona, california and parts of mexico. Some of the native american people have used jojoba for many hundreds of years, treating sores, cuts, bruises, burns, as a food supplement, cooking oil and as a skin and hair treatment.
The oil makes up half of the weight of the seed. The jojoba wax is the most similar compound in nature to human skin oil. It is a very stable oil, doesn't go rancid or lose antioxidants. It is a polyunsaturated liquid wax made of fatty acids and esters.
Rich in vitamin e it is easily absorbed and is thought to 'trick' the skin into slowing down sebum production.
