Desert Essence 100% Pure Jojoba Oil for Hair, Skin and Scalp, 4 fl oz

This oil works great post shave to hydrate the bikini area.

A little background on my skin type. I’m 36 years old and have combination skin that is extremely sensitive and very acne prone (mix of hormonal acne and other sorts). My finicky skin causes me a lot of heartache and has resulted in many tears. For years I have been avoiding any type of moisturizers out of fear i’d break out. Instead, i was using face products geared towards “acne” and clear skin which in turn made my sensitive skin even worse. After much research I finally pulled the trigger and decided to try out the oil cleansing method (sans coconut oil because that stuff is HIGH on the comedogenic scale at a 5). Instead, i tried jojoba which is only 2 on comedogenic scale (so not completely pore clogging free) but it has a composition closest to that of human sebum so it works. My thoughts. I have found a new holy grail! This stuff has completely helped my red and irritated skin to calm down. I will sometimes mix this with Argan or hemp oil (both 0 on comedogenic scale meaning it will not clog pores) and oil cleanse with that. After oil cleansing i will wash my face with an oil free cleanser of some sort (or miceller water) and then finish off with a little more oil which I pat into my skin and leave on overnight. I will rotate between jojoba and Argan or hemp depending on how dry my skin feels due to weather. Instead of waking up with an oily face, i wake up with a glowing non oily complexion. It’s amazing. Tip. There is no such thing as “skin purging” so if you try this and it is causing additional breakouts then it is not the right oil for your skin type. If that happens, try Argan or hemp to see how one of those works. Everyone has a different skin composition so it’s possible that although this works for me, it may not work for you. If it doesn’t work on your face though, use it on your cuticles and body because it will surely leave you with soft healthy skin!!

This is really good quality jojoba oil!! Jojoba is super good for your skin, hair, literally everything, and this brand seems to have consistent quality. I've ordered from them for a few years and never gotten an off smelling bottle or suspiciously low quality oil. This is my go-to oil now. I first started using jojoba oil because I was getting terrible dandruff, and I had never had dandruff before. The *only* thing that worked long term (not even dandruff shampoo worked past the initial few weeks) was applying jojoba oil to my scalp every night and letting it soak in for about an hour. Due to how often I was dying my hair, my scalp was getting really dried out and irritated, and this soothed and moisturized it, but when I took a shower and washed my hair it washed out cleanly and my head didn't feel heavy or oily the next day. I also use this as a moisturizer for my face. I add a bit of tea tree oil to the bottle, and then moisturize at night. It's seriously reduced the amount of cystic acne I get; I used to have at least 1 painful bump on my face at a time and since I started doing this I get one approximately once every 4 months and it is much less painful and goes away much quicker. I have never had any acne medication or other skin treatment make such a radical different in my skin!!!

I can't say enough good things about Desert Essence Organic Jojoba Oil. I have tried other brands and this one is the best there is. Other brands had oil that smelled strongly or had an off "odor". I have never had that issue with this product. It goes on smoothly, gets absorbed quickly. I have very sensitive skin and anything with fragrances leaves me with a reaction. So several years ago I had to stop using all commercial moisturizers. I began looking for something that would work for me, that was non-comodegenic and fragrance-free. This is it. I use it as a facial moisturizer, body moisturizer, and in place of a hand creme. It leaves my skin soft and calm. I told family members and friends about it and now so many of them have switched over from other synthetic products, and every one of them swears by it. My only complaint (a friendly request for Desert Essence, really) is that I wish this came in larger bottles/bulk packaging. We go through so much of this in my household every month, that it feels like a major environmental waste to keep buying these small plastic bottles. That and, once the bottles are opened for use, they leak if the bottle is sideways in a bag. So if you take yours to the gym, or carry it with you in your bag ( I do both, since I use it each time I wash my hands), I found a workaround -- the bottles have a pour cap, and under that, the bottle mouth comes sealed with a foil disk. If you only peel the disk back a little bit, pour out the oil you need, then press the disk back against the mouth and tightly close the cap, the bottle does not leak when sideways. But you have to be mindful. Other than that, this is one of my all-time favorite personal use products and one I swear by at all times.

This oil brand is good quality..I have been using it for my very dry skin..my arms itch so much til they are purple from scratching them...this oil has put much needed moisture back into my skin that I don't scratch as much. It works when lotions won't ..this brand has very faint smell and the big bottle last a long time using it 3 times a day. .I also use it on my sensitive face for lines and wrinkles..Great stuff

When I use it on my face at night in the shower, my face looks less old and tired looking in the AM. Kind of like it plumps the skin some. I was worried in the beginning that it would make me break out, but it doesn't, and i have been using about 10 months. A little , about a nickel size is more than enough.

I have combination skin and have tried almost every drugstore product, Proactiv, and AcneFree to clear my skin, but everything was too trying or irritating. So, 3 years ago, I created a skincare regime for myself, using only 4 simple products: 1) Desert Essence’s “Cleansing Bar Tea Tree Therapy” to wash my face 2) Thayers “Alcohol-Free Rose Petal Witch Hazel Toner” to cleanse my face 3) Spring Valley “100% Pure Australian Tea Tree Oil” to treat my acne 4) Desert Essence’s “Organic Jojoba Oil” to moisturize my face Yes it may seem pricey at first for a small bottle, but this bottle will last you for nearly a year! I use this every day (and sometimes at night) as a moisturizer and it does NOT clog pores, even though it is an oil. Jojoba oil is the most similar to our own skin oil (sebum), so it actually helps maintain your skin oil. It is also great for dry hair and is not as heavy on the skin/hair as coconut oil. I LIVE by this product and will not trust any other for moisturizing and taking care of my skin! Ever since I've used this product, my acne scars have healed up and my skin looks absolutely flawless. My skin is always glowing and feels moisturized all day long. I'm stocked up on this jojoba oil, I have 3 more bottles to last me the next 3 years. If you're looking for a natural moisturizer free of parabens and artificial ingredients, this is it! I will continue using this product for the rest of my life.

I just got this and started using it. Like others have said it may have come with a different label, but it still says Desert Essence, so hey maybe they redesigned it. Either way I really like how it goes on and absorbs into the skin. I also appreciate how it does not leave my hands greasy after I apply it on my body. This works out because I can rub the excess into my hands and nails for a nice moisturizer when my cuticles need a little refresher. When I first got it, it was pretty warm because it's hot out and it was in a mail truck all day. I smelled it then and I wasn't too pleased. But after it cooled down to room temperature and I used it, I was pleasantly surprised by the scent. It smells life coffee beans but it is very light. If you smell your skin after it has absorbed mostly it doesn't maintain the scent, which is perfect. I got this to use mainly during the summer. When I am in the pool my skin can dry out a bit from the chlorine. Lotion can get a little heavy afterwards but I find that this oil, as light as it is will make a perfect after swim moisturizer as well as putting it on before I tan. So far I am pleased with my purchase.

Relación calidad-precio inmejorable. Producto 100% puro. Yo particularmente lo uso para el pelo y la cara. Es muy bueno para el cuero cabelludo, para reactivar la circulación, y para el crecimiento del pelo, entre otras cosas. Me pongo algunas gotas en el cuero cabelludo, froto y lo dejo como una hora o así, y a continuación me lavo el pelo normalmente. Llevo muy poco tiempo usándolo, pero de momento no me engrasa nada el pelo (y yo lo tengo graso de por sí). En la cara es muy bueno, dos gotas son más que suficientes. Se absorbe rápido y no deja sensación grasa en la piel. Muy buen producto que sin duda volveré a comprar

too expensive It's even small size.

I bought this as I read that the composition of jojoba oil is similar to the oil your skin naturally produces. I apply this on my face everyday am and pm and it works wonders! You don't need too much just massage it in an upwards motion on your face. This oil doesn't look shiny or sit on your face, it almost dries dry. It's also great as a makeup base! I also use it on the ends of my hair when it's damp and before blow drying. My hair looks a lot shiner, healthier and doesn't weigh it down like other oils! A must if you have thin hair. My skin feels moisturised and soft through the whole day and my hair no longer looks dry at the ends. The product is high quality and you can tell as soon as you apply it. The bottle is a bit annoying as a lot can pour out. Other than that I fully recommend this product!

Cette huile de jojoba est de très bonne qualité . Elle pénètre rapidement et est non grasse ( quelques gouttes suffisent ) Vous pouvez l'acheter les yeux fermés . Il y en a des tas sur le marché mais celle ci est pure non coupé avec du parfum de synthèse et autres substances . Elle a une petite odeur mais ce n'est pas méchant car ça s'estompe rapidement .Si vous avez des soucis de peau cette huile vous apaisera . Idéale après l'épilation . Et pour finir cette huile est non testée sur les animaux .

Second time buying it. High quality, very nice natural feel, absorbs nicely. Lasts for a long time. A pea size amount after shower hands face beard and hair. Todd
