Jojoba Oil . . .

Jojoba Oil has a light to medium aroma which is absorbed well. Very stable, Jojoba is actually a wax with a long shelf life. As a natural anti-inflammatory, it is a good choice for use in massage and for inflamed skin. It is said that its composition is similar to that of the skin's natural sebum (oil). Jojoba is a good choice to use with those with oily or acne prone skin.
