Pros Does moisturize
Cons I am extremely allergic to jojoba oil and didn't know it.
Bottom line Try it out on a small area first. I put it on my lips and somehow ingested some and my throat started to close off. Be careful and make sure your not allergic to it first.

Bottom line I'm writing this review based on the healing properties of jojoba oil on my neck eczema. I developed a small patch of eczema on my neck 5 years ago when I was 20. Cortisone creams and the Elidel cream (both prescribed to me by various dermatologists) helped control it, but they are not meant to be used on a long term basis. So I sought alternative creams that could help. I've tried almost everything on the market - L'Occitane shea butter, The Body Shop Vitamin E cream, Clinique, Hope's Eczema Relief Cream, Sebamed, Jurlique Calendula Cream, Avene Cold Cream ... imagine all the money that I've wasted over a patch of unsightly eczema!

But then, I bought jojoba oil from this website with the intention of applying it to my face as a moisturiser. I extended its application to my neck, and at last, I have found a product that doesn't contain steroids but which controls my eczema!

I can't say this will help all eczema sufferers, but it's worth giving it a try!

Pros Wonderful stuff! An amazing moisturizer, fairly neutral smell. Helped to get rid of flakiness. I also use it as a lip balm and body lotion! Since getting the oil, I have had to order 3 more bottles for family members who tried it!
Cons I put a small amount in my hair and it made it look greasy, for some reason doesn't absorb as well into hair as other oils in the same quantity.
Bottom line Get it!!

Pros This is absolutely great for moisturizing and getting rid of flakiness/really dry skin. Mix it with the Regimen moisturizer and it's just awesome. Practically no scent and it's 100% organic which is always nice.
Cons Nothing!
Bottom line GET IT! The only thing you should keep in mind is that it is an oil (though it won't clog your pores) so the consistency will be that way. Just keep that in mind when you put it on your face. I'd recommend going with 2-3 drops for the day/going out and go all out if you're at home/going to bed.

Bottom line is that jojoba oil does an amazing job at helping out with moisturizing and does add a subtle glow to you skin as well (that's what I noticed). Bye bye flakes, bye bye dry skin!

Pros Gets rid of flakiness when mixed with the moisturizer, doesn't make me break out, doesn't interfere with makeup application, gives my skin a nice glow, excellent eye makeup remover
Cons none
Bottom line I love this stuff! I was hesitant to purchase the jojoba oil since I had tried DHC's olive oil in the past and got breakouts everywhere. This was a MUCH different experience. I've been on the regimen about 2 weeks now, so my skin is just now getting used to the BP. I would be a horrible, flaky mess without this stuff! I mix it in with my moisturizer (2-3 drops) and my skin looks good. I use a mineral makeup, so it accentuates ANY dryness I might have, and I have NO issues with makeup application when I use this. My skin actually looks flawness and my makeup goes on better than usual! I just used this last night for the first time as a makeup remover, and it got all traces of makeup off. You just need to use the cleanser to get rid of the jojoba oil, and you're set!
For reference, I normally have oily skin with really bad surface dryness, so I NEED a decent moisturizer but it can't be too heavy or I'll be an oil slick by mid-day. The moisturizer alone in winter isn't enou

Pros Moisturizes VERY well, works perfect for mixing with my moisturizer. A great idea is to use this at night, right before bed, and I tend to add a little extra before bed considering it has more time to absorb then in the morning.
Cons When used as lip balm, (at least for me) it will actually dry up my lips easier. It might just be the environment I work in though.
Bottom line Great product, great price, BUY THIS! Mix it with your moisturizer you wont regret it. Thanks Dan!

Pros Great Mosturizer! I will probally never see flaking again! It's also a very good lip balm.
Cons Makes face/lips shiny.
Somewhat expensive (Although it does last a long time).
Bottom line I use it every night on my face and occasionally on my lips. It definitely makes your lips smoother and softer, but I haven't actually noticed THAT much of a difference on my face. However, I have only been using it for about 2 weeks.

I think it is definitely worth the extra money. No flakiness, and it makes your skin softer.
