Jojoba Oil (Simmondsia Chinensis)

Jojoba Oil is a lightweight, nourishing botanical oil prized in natural skincare for its ability to moisturize without leaving the skin feeling heavy or greasy. Technically a liquid plant wax, Jojoba closely resembles the skin’s natural sebum, making it highly compatible with a wide variety of skin types.

Known for its quick-absorbing and balancing properties, Jojoba Oil helps support the skin’s natural moisture barrier while leaving the skin feeling soft, smooth, and hydrated. Its gentle nature makes it especially popular in formulations designed for both dry and oily skin.

With a comedogenic rating of approximately 2, Jojoba Oil is considered moderately low on the pore-clogging scale and is generally well tolerated by most skin types. Its lightweight texture and skin-balancing qualities make it a staple ingredient in traditional and modern apothecary skincare alike.
