Jojoba Oil - Benefits


A one stop shop for so many of your skincare needs

Jojoba oil is EVERYTHING! Why isn’t everyone and their mothers talking about this? Despite what you may have heard, oil is actually good for you and your skin!

I discovered Jojoba Oil after using Korres Wild Rose Advanced Brightening and Nourishing Face Oil, 1.01 Ounce. So first things first let me tell you about Korres, a dear old friend…


The Korres Wild Rose Oil   is a fabulous product. It’s a product I really believe in because it WORKS! This is a compliment I rarely give by the way. It’s a skincare product, it’s a beauty product, it’s everything it claims to be and more. How often do we spend money on a product that claims to be so many things and ends up being nothing? Way too often. Fortunately, this was not the case with Korres! It’s thin, easily absorbed, doesn’t leave a gross oily residue, smells like heaven… what’s not to like?

OH wait, I almost forgot to mention that it’s not cheap AT ALL. Why am I telling you this? Because I fell in love with a product I couldn’t afford. If you can afford it try it out! If you’re balling on a budget fear not, for I have found a solution.

About a year ago I decided to explore less expensive options that rendered similar results to the Korres oil product. After aggressive googling and chatting with friends I decided to try jojoba oil. Jojoba oil is a thin oil produced in the seed of the Simmondsia chinensis plant. Yeah, I’ve never heard of that plant either, but apparently it’s some sort of shrub. A shrub that’s clearly magical because jojoba oil is terrific. Talk about brightening… I’ve even used Jojoba oil in place of highlighter if I’m not in the mood for makeup.

So, I’ve completely incorporated Jojoba oil into my everyday skincare routine because duh #teamjojoba. Jojoba oil is easy to find and inexpensive to purchase! From makeup remover to full body hydration, jojoba oil delivers full body skin benefits. Not really sure how I lived without this product for 20 whole years.

7 Reasons I’m in LOVE with Jojoba Oil:


1. Moisturizing 

First of all, jojoba oil is the perfect daily/overnight moisturizer for face and body. Biggest selling point for me. It absorbs easily into the skin and a few drops goes a lonnnnng way. Mix a few drops in with another product to increase hydration. Ya know what I mean? I like to add a few drops to fragrance lotions that don’t moisturize my skin enough on their own. Works like a charm.

2. Totes Odorless

Jojoba oil is totally odorless. No need to worry about aroma-clashing when using with other products!

3. Sensitive Sally

If you’re a sensitive sally like me, you’ll absolutely love jojoba oil. So gentle, great for sensitive skin and for those of us who have FOBO (fear of breaking out, duh). Jojoba oil can also calm down razor burn and treat that pesky dandruff.

4. Not a two-faced b**ch

“You’re hot then your cold, you’re yes then you’re no…” Katy Perry was definitely not talking about jojoba oil when she sang this tune. Jojoba oil is a great friend. It wont let you down and it won’t change its mind on you. It might solidify at around 50° F, but it’ll always go right back to normal at room temperature. Shake it around a bit to get all those wonderful components evened out and you’ll be back in business. Shelf life? Don’t worry about it. This product is reliable. It will keep for about 5 years!

5. Acne Fighter

In the past I found myself battling a breakout every week or so. After about a year using jojoba oil I have experienced only the occasional breakout. Jojoba contains iodine, which might fight that icky bacteria that causes breakouts.

6. Makeup Remover

You know that pesky waterproof eye makeup that you can never seem to really remove? Jojoba oil can take care of that for ya. Perfect solution to removing any and all face makeup, while simultaneously hydrating your skin.

7. Hydration for all!

So I was telling you about the moisturizing benefits of jojoba oil. Well, these benefits are not exclusive to face and body! You can use it as a replenishing hair conditioner as well. It’ll make your hair super soft and shiny. You can even use it in place of anti-frizz serum.

Every day I seem to discover a new use for this incredible product, I’ll keep you updated on my future discoveries. Until then grab some NOW Organic Jojoba Oil, it will change your life.
