INCI
Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil
ORIGIN
Jojoba seed oil is extracted from the seeds of the jojoba plant (simmondsia chinensis), which is native to the arid regions of southwestern North America including parts of the United States and Mexico. It's primarily cultivated in these regions and other suitable climates around the world for its oil-rich seeds, which are used to create jojoba oil.
SKIN TOLERANCE
Jojoba seed oil is generally well-tolerated on skin and considered safe, even those with sensitive or acne-prone skin.
SKINCARE BENEFITS
Hydrates Skin Â
It provides long-lasting moisture, deeply penetrating the skin to keep it hydrated and soft without leaving an oily residue.
Regulates Oil Production
Jojoba oil is unique because it closely resembles sebum, the oil naturally produced by the skin, making it an excellent moisturizer that balances oil production.
Soothes Redness and Irritation
With its anti-inflammatory properties, jojoba oil can calm and soothe sensitive and irritated skin, reducing redness and discomfort.
Improves Skin Barrier Â
Rich in antioxidants and fatty acids, it strengthens the skin's natural barrier, protecting against environmental stressors and preventing moisture loss.
