Rich in beauty-boosting vitamins A, E and D, plus antioxidants and fatty acids, jojoba "oil" is actually a wax ester with remarkably similar properties to our skin's own sebum. This means the "oil" is able to penetrate deeply, reaching below the top layer of skin for maximum nourishment. Jojoba is also naturally antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, analgesic (read: able to relieve pain), hypoallergenic, and anti-inflammatory. Perhaps best of all, it can be used on any skin type, from dry and sensitive to acne-prone.
Relieves Dryness
As previously mentioned, jojoba oil closely mimics the skin's own sebum, making it an effective natural conditioner. (Good news for anyone with a dry or irritated complexion.)
Removes Makeup
Why splash out on a separate makeup remover or oil cleanser, when this all-natural ingredient can dissolve and whisk away everything from sunscreen to waterproof mascara?
Supercharges Actives
Because jojoba oil is able to penetrate all the way down to the skin matrix, it can help ferry active ingredients like salicylic acid and retinol along with it, allowing them to do their best work.
Protects Against Sun Damage
According to co-founder of The Jojoba Company Vicki Engsall, jojoba has natural ways of protecting itself from sun damage. "Jojoba is the only plant in the world known to produce pure liquid wax esters. It layers these long molecules in the outer layer of its leaves to stop UVB rays from penetrating its leaves." The good bit? It can do the same for your skin.
Balances Oily Skin
When skin is stripped of its natural sebum (via things like using a non-pH balanced cleanser), the sebaceous glands can go into overdrive. This creates a vicious cycle of oil overproduction—and over-cleansing—leading to breakouts. Jojoba as can reset your complexion by bringing back balance.
Calms Eczema
People with asteatotic eczema are more prone to dryness since their skin doesn't produce as much sebum, and is also less able to retain moisture. Jojoba can help heal asteatotic eczema via its analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, as well as an ability to restore a compromised skin barrier.
Soothes Sore Lips
Chronically dry lips? Massage in a few drops of nourishing jojoba then layer on a protective balm—you'll see a major difference in just a few days.
Softens Cuticles
Forget cuticle oil blends, jojoba can dramatically soften the skin around your nails all by itself. It's antibacterial and antifungal properties add extra protection against nail infections.
