NovAurora Organic Jojoba Oil 4oz

100% Organic Jojoba Oil

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 sun block. We offer the finest certified organic, refined, expeller-pressed jojoba: it is colorless and odorless. 

Suggested Uses of Organic Jojoba:

• Skin care
• Baby care
• Hair care

How to use:
As with all Novaurora Organic Skin Care products, a little goes a long way. Apply a few drops to rough, dry elbows, heels, or feet. Apply to skin just after showering (add a small amount to the hands and rub over the whole body before toweling-off). Rub into overworked hands. Massage gently onto baby's skin and scalp. Pay attention to those creases.Put a few drops in the hands and rub into just-washed hair before blowing dry.Use as a hot-oil treatment for damaged hair (then wash out). Massage into dry, irritated scalp; leave on for a while, then wash.

Add one teaspoon to an 8oz bottle of commercial shampoo and wash as usual Add 2 teaspoons to hot bathwater to soften the whole body
