Jojoba Oil

Overview
Jojoba oil is most commonly used for skin and hair products and it acts as a natural skin conditioner due to its waxy consistency. It is the ideal carrier oil to mix with other essential oils to apply for massages and other oil treatments.

Common Uses
Jojoba oil has a proven track record for treatment of acne, eczema and psoriasis. Due to its high oil content it is one of the best moisturising agents against cold and dry conditions. Pure Jojoba essential oil can be rubbed on the skin before bedtime which will not only moisturise the skin, but also act as a healing agent. This essential oil aids in the treatment of dandruff and dermatitis too by massaging the scalp a few times a week.

Recommended Storage
The ideal storage of essential oils is to keep it refrigerated, as the fridge keeps the components that make up the oils at their optimal levels. If you don't have space in the fridge, you can keep it in a cool, dark place. Essential oils have a shelf life of one to five years. You should however replace essential oils after three years to gain the most benefits out of the essential oils.
