Pros:- a little goes a long way
- no fragance
- very easily abosrbed
Cons:- poor packaging, stuff leaks out
Bottom Line:jojoba oil is a fantastic moisturizer, because it's just OIL and has no extra stuff. that's what i love about it.

all i do for my face is wash with a cleanser and apply this moisturizer once a day. (face is too sensitive for 2 washings a day) i still have mild acne, but my skin is healthy and happy.

it's somewhat expensive (especially on [link removed], i recommend you buy from a store like trader joe's), but it lasts forever and is SO worth it.

Pros:It absorbs well
It keeps my skin soft
Cons:Not so easy to apply due to it's liquid form
Danger of using too much (since it's so good!)
Bottom Line:I have never in my whole life tried a better moisturiser before.

I was skeptical about how putting oil will leave my skin matt. But when I apply the oil, I was amazed!

It's so easy to spread, and it absorbs readily. And after a whole night out at the clubs, my skin still feels matt! You guys should give this a shot man.

And one bottle last such a looong time. I only need 3 to 4 drops per usuage.

I couldn't find the 100% jojoba oil, but I got one that's 90% jojoba, 10% vitamin E from Derma-E. And I think it works great as well.

Pros:Best moisturizer I've ever used, decreases oiliness, very inexpensive (1 bottle has lasted me a 6 months)!
Cons:None.
Bottom Line:LOVE LOVE LOVE jojoba oil! I have been using it for about 6 months on my oily, breakout-prone skin, and I'm so glad I decided to try it! It is now the only moisturizer I use, and it has improved my skin a lot. I now only get one small pimple when I get my period, and it's gone within a day or two. People commented actually commented on how much my skin improved (one girl asked if I had had Botox..haha).

My routine: mornings, I splash my face with warm water a few times, then, before drying off, apply a few drops of jojoba oil to my hands, rub my hands together and apply to my face lightly. After 5-10 minutes, I splash my face with a little water and very lightly pat dry. During the day, I wear Everyday Minerals makeup. At night, I wash with Kiss My Face Pure Olive Oil soap, followed with 50/50 solution of ACV and water on a cotton pad, then do my jojoba oil routine. Every few days I use Queen Helene Mint Julep mask, with a few drops of Tea Tree Oil added.

Pros:Jojoba Oil feels nice on the skin and it last a long time.
Bottom Line:I mix a little of the Jojoba with cetaphil lotion in a jar. After applying the benzoyl peroxide step, the oil and lotion mixture is applied. I tap it on with my fingertip. Then my face does not feel so tight. It does not make my face more oily nor prone to worse breakouts. Now instead of just trying to "attack" bad skin with a drying agent and then having flaky skin on top of it, well, this makes my skin nice and soft, more glowing looking and healthly. prettier !

Pros:-Bottle lasts a long time.
-Moisturizes well.
-Cleared up 98% of my acne.
Cons:-Using too much results in a shiny complexion and a "greasy" appearance.
Bottom Line:There is not a better moisturizer out there. What I do is after I shower or wash up, I let my face air dry for just a minute or so, then I apply about 2-3 drops onto my fingertip and rub my fingers together lightly. Then, I gently apply it all over my face.

This will keep you moisturized year round!
Recommended:Yes

Pros:a little goes a long way...
definitely moisturizes not just my face but everything, from face to hair to nails to the whole body.
Cons:can be a little bit shiny if used too much
Bottom Line:I use it along with tea tree oil. 2-3 drops of jojoba oil and 2 of tea tree oil. I found it to be a great combination.

Along with other highly recommended items on this site, I believe that I've been staying clear.
Recommended:Yes

Pros:Simply the best. If U are an active man and always irritated by acne and breakouts, jojoba oil is for U. Bye Bye acne, blackheads, whiteheads, breakouts,wrinkles, ichy skin and enjoy your life! Jojoba Oil really protects and maintains your skin.
Cons:A little shiny if U use too much on your skin but none will realize, hehe. That creates different!
Bottom Line:I bought 5 bottles of desert essence 4 oz and use for 2 weeks until now. After wash my face gently with my cleanser, don't wash Ur face so long, i apply very thin layer of jojoba oil on my face and rub. It works like a miracle. I am not afraid of acne anymore. Use it at everytime of the day as U want. I also use it at night.Fade dark spots and scars too. My eyebrows become beautiful from this as they thicken and lengthen. A 4 oz bottle lasts a lifetime. I Still have 4 bottles left. Love it!

I can't imagine my "a day" without jojoba oil. Don't extinct, my love!

Pros:Amazing! Moisturizes skin, softens whiskers, and abolishes flakiness!
Cons:Too oily to be applied during the day.
Bottom Line:I mix 3 drops into two pumps of cetaphil moisturizer every night. It really helps my acne and red marks by making my skin healthier. A great compliment to the regimen!

Bottom Line:After reading great reviews about Jojoba, I decided to use Jason Jojoba oil to help clear up dark spots and blemishes on my face as I've tried every product under the sun. It's only been a week, but thus far, the blemishes are reducing in size. I hope and pray that it helps lighten up the dark spots in time for summer.
