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.

Pros:Reduces redness and appears to reduce inflammation . Feels soothing after applying; leaves skin feeling soft and well-nourished.
Cons:Mild initial breakout. Leaves skin very shiny!
Bottom Line:I suffer from bad acne. I don't have a lot of acne, I have bad acne (i.e., cysts). They hurt bad and are very tender; they're always red and irritated. Because I'm light-skinned, they are very noticeable. When I get these painful cysts, the bacteria gets deep into the pores and last weeks, sometimes months, before the bacteria can come out. In desperation, I tried 100% pure jojoba oil. I've been using this for a week now. At first, I broke out mildly; I think it's the "initial purge" many talk about. A week into this my cysts have reduced in size, redness, and inflammation. I'm moderately satisfied, but will continue to use this in hopes of seeing better long-term effects. I will post my progress in a week or so.

Pros:Made my acne prone skin soft and helped do away with large, painful pimples throughout my face.
Cons:Can give your skin a bit of a greasy look.
Bottom Line:I use Desert Essence organic Jojoba oil, and I can't praise this stuff enough. I wash my skin with Desert Essence tea tree face wash, which is the best facial wash I have ever used, and then apply a couple of drops of the Jojoba oil on to a cotton pad and evenly spread it on to my face. I've tried mixing a couple of drops with a water-based mosturizer, but that just made my skin look very greasy during the day. This particular skin regimen has really made all the difference for me-- my skin hasn't been this clear in over ten years.
Recommended:Yes
Usage:HappyFace has used this item for a few months.

Pros:AWESOME STUFF!
Cons:Feels Oily for a couple of minutes until it absorbs into the skin.
Bottom Line:I've been using Duac, and it drys out my skin so much that it's flakey... I've been trying out a lot of mositurizer that just made my skin break out, burn, or once asorbed/dried that brought the flakes back. I highly recommend this stuff! This is the only moisturizer that actually makes my face resolve the dryness/flakey issue. It's all organic so I don't have to worry about damage to my skin. It also makes my skin soft, more nourished, and lushious. Even though it's pretty expensive, It still works wonders. I really recommend this product!!

You can buy this product in mostly all health food stores if you're thinking about buying some.

Pros:It does not have an odor, absorbs great, it's affordable, and with ProActive, my skin has NEVER been more clear. Jojoba oil is the best product I have ever used on my skin and I have tried everything at every price range.
Cons:I can't think of anything. I do not think it's too oily of a product. I use it after I wash my face, under light makeup...I don't have to wear much makeup at all now, because my skin is staying clear ever since I started using jojoba oil.
Bottom Line:Try it. I use ProActiv and I think that while using Jojoba oil together is the main reason my skin is clear of acne.
Recommended:Yes
