Alex, London, UK Jan 24th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Doesn't block pores, leaves skin soft and never oily. Lasts for ages as only a couple of drops required. Cons: None. Bottom Line: Been using this for some months. I rarely ever get a blemish on my face now, whereas i would often get a breakout monthly previously. Use a drop or two of this with aloe vera gel as your daily moisturiser.

Pros: all natural used to cure many other things Bottom Line: I think you have to use the organic kind for best results. I did think it was weird to try somthing that had the word "oil" in it but it feels so smooth and im big on natural organic stuff lol Recommended: Yes Usage: Reviewer has used this item for a day or two.

Lynn, Tacoma, WA Jan 10th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: I absolutely love this stuff and use it daily. It makes all skin redness (rosacea, eczema, general sensitive skin) calm down, and seems to make my skin less oily overall. Cons: Because it's oily, it's better to use at bedtime only. Bottom Line: Love it. I apply directly to red areas first, then mix 50/50 with my regular moisturizer. My skin is calmer, less redness, less oily and is pleasantly soft in the morning. The bottle will last forever. Recommended: Yes Usage: Lynn has used this item for a few months.

Pros: In combination with other oils, this is a miracule cure for redness around the nose and cheeks Cons: Overnight only, leaves a bit of a sheen so can't really go out with it slopped on. Bottom Line: I have made a mixture of 50% jojoba oil, 40% vitamin E, >9% olive oil and <1% tea tree oil, and use it to control nasty painful dryiness I get around my nose and cheeks. I also have pimples around the forhead and jawline, but this combination does not cause me to break out in the areas where I apply it. It has reduced my recovery time for the redness from days to hours. Fantastic. I have NOT tried using in my acne prone areas. Recommended: Yes Usage: Reviewer has used this item for about a month.

Anonymous, Cleveland, OH Jan 5th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: If you find jojoba has been too oily for you, try the Heather Lorraine organic/filtered jojoba oil (it's clear). It works great and absorbs much faster! Cons: NONE! Bottom Line: I stumbled upon this solution to my skin problems while in the health food store one day. I was having trouble with lots of little blemishs on my very oily forhead. Jojoba oil has really helped get my oil production under control and has made extraction of the last of the breakout much easier. Recommended: Yes Usage: Reviewer has used this item for a few weeks.

Tracy, Canada Dec 27th, 2006 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Fools your face into thinking it has already produced enough sebum. Great trick! Cons: None so far. For people with acne, it feels weird to put oil on an already oily face. Bottom Line: I have had acne for 14 years. I am now in my 30s and still waiting to "grow out of it". Wow am I sick of hearing THAT will happen. WELL, I wash with Proactiv Solution (I've used it for years and it's doing an "okay" job), and just recently started to add a few drops of Jojoba oil to my oil-free moisturizer. PRESTO CHANGO--the zits are gone. I'm shocked shocked shocked. I have only been doing this for a week, so I hope this isn't something my face will just get used to and go back to being its old acne-ridden self. But after one week, I have no new bumps and no new blackheads. My skin is really smooth. If you've tried everything else (and I have--incuding 4 courses of Accutane), why not give this a shot? I will update this posting if the long-term affects are not as positive as the short-term affects I have experienced. Good luck! Recommended: Yes Usage: Tracy has used this item for about a week.

John, USA Dec 18th, 2006 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Small 4oz container lasts forever! Completetly gets rid of flakes! No greasy face, even at the end of a long day! Actually made my skin healthier. Cons: Due to it's runnier-than-lotion consistensy it's a bit more difficult to spread evenly, but after a few days of practice it's no problem. Bottom Line: I've tried Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture (didn't help with flakes)and Lac-Hydrin 5 (too harsh, turned skin red) and mixing a bit of Jojoba Oil with each but still either had flakes, redness, or a heavy, greasy feeling on my face. One day I was looking for Complex 15 locally but couldn't find it. I knew I had to do something because the redness and flakes had to stop. I decided until I ordered Complex 15 online and received it I'd try Jojoba Oil by itself. I was a little concerned about it being pure oil and putting it on my face, which was already getting too oily by the end of the day, but holy cow... ...incredible. I now use this solely (no moisturizer) about 10 minutes after applying BP, twice a day, morning and night. Only 2-3 drops covers the lower half of my face (my problem area). After a full day of work when I get home my face isn't heavy, greasy, and/or red; it looks and feels normal! My skin is visibly getting softer and smoother with each passing day.

robert, georgia Dec 8th, 2006 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: the perfect compliment to dan's regimen. Cons: a small initial purge, but nothing major. Bottom Line: I take about two squirts of dan's soap with a squirt of jojoba oil (about a nickel-sized blob) and mix it all in my hand until it makes a thick lather and gently massage that into my face. after letting it sit for a few moments, I wash it off with warm water and then proceed with the rest of dan's regimen. in about a month's time, it's really improved the look of my skin and the severity of my acne. I think perhaps putting a ton of BP on your face twice a day for a long time can wear out your skin and the jojoba helps balance things out.

Kira, NY Dec 8th, 2006 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Helps with dry skin. Softens skin too. Cons: Doesn't help with acne. I think I was using it too much (in my cleanser and as a moisturizer) so it completely stopped my own sebum production. Now I use it only as an addition to my regular moisturizer and it seems to be okay. Bottom Line: Try it, but be careful not to use too much. I'm still trying to find that amazing cure for acne. It's not this, but it does help keep me from shedding my skin like a snake!! Try a natural store to get it for cheaper than online or in a drug store.

Ash, Ontario, Canada Dec 8th, 2006 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Bottom Line: This stuff is just absolutely amazing! I would have never put a product on my face with the name "oil" in it. After just one use I noticed my skin was so much softer and I didn't experience anymore flakiness after using Benzoyl Peroxide. I add 3-4 drops of Jojoba Oil to my moisturizer at night. I've also found other great uses for this stuff. I add it to my shampoo once a week, add it with fine sugar for a great at home exfoliator and I also add it to my body moisturizer too. Highly recommend this stuff!!!! Recommended: Yes Usage: Ash has used this item for a few weeks. Price Paid: 12.00 Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)
