Makes my face a bit more oily in the morning since it doesn't absorb too well

Pros:

excellent moisturizing, doesn't weigh down your skin, makes my skin look dewy and smooth

Cons:

none

This stuff is great. Ony 1-2 drops is really needed for a good effect. I add it to my suncreen moisturizer during the day, and at night i add it after AHA lotion. Now my skin is no longer red and irritated from AHA and BP, in fact I'm glowing ! If you use the jojoba oil alone, a good idea would be to add it while your face is still slightly damp, that way it helps lock in moisture, and you can use even less drops than usual. My face broke out once after I started, but the pimples were smaller and went away much quicker, and even better, using the jojoba prevented the BP from drying my face out!

Very disappointed on jojoba oil....
I've had acne since a very young age and been struggling with it for pretty much my whole life. And I also have oily skin... I used the one from Now Foods. Thought jojoba oil could finally be the thing that works besides proactiv... But NO!! It did nothing but makes my face even worse... My face was quite clam before i started using jojoba oil, with just one or two pimples occasionally.... After just 2 or 3 weeks of use, my face broke out madly... Unlike any other pimples before... It broke out in my forehead and chin areas, not just one or two pimples, but a big patch of pimples all crawl out at once... which are so awfully to look at... The situation is not f even tho I've already stopped using jojoba oil for a month... I really hope someone can tell me how to deal with these horrible acnes cus I'll go to my best fd's wedding next month... :-(:-(

Try (Epsom Salt)... this kind of salt take out toxins from the body and see the reviews for yourself in this site. Huge benefits!

Try using an apple cider vinegar spot treatment or diluted with water as an astringent! Just wash the spot treatment off after 20-30 minutes. Also, try washing your face with honey. I wouldn't give up on the jojoba. Switching to natural products usually will bring out the bad stuff before it gets better!

Not for me...
I was excited to try this and was really disappointed. I had originally bought it to help with my crazy oily skin, and reduce hyper pigmentation. I tried it for a few days and broke out, I kept using it because I thought it was a purge, it just kind of stuck around, It didn't get any worse or any better. Plus my skin was still as oily as ever.. I didn't like how it felt putting oil on my already oily face.. I stopped using it after a week or so and my skin cleared within 2 days. Oh well.. I do use it in my hair and it makes it SUPER soft so I guess if it doesn't work on your face use a little in your hair.

Pros:

can be used as a moisturiser
and most importantly really does help to clear mild acne!!!

Cons:

none

it hasnt completely cleared my mild acne however has made a massive difference in helping to keep my skin more consistently clear and when i do go through a break out phase its not half as bad as it used to be! Definitely the only product thats worked for me!!

Pros:

Cheap
Smells OK

Cons:

Major break out within 10 hours!

I put this on this morning at 8 a.m after a week of well-controlled acne (achieved using Sudocrem & manuka oil) and by 6 p.m I was covered in large cyctic acne, including some new huge ones that weren't there this morning. I accept that everyone's different but this is not for me. It's a shame because as a 35 year old I'm told that oils are great anti-ageing remedies. Back to the Sudocrem for me!

Pros:

-The best moisturizer I have ever used
-Cheaper than you think (a bottle lasts FAR longer than a comparably sized bottle of lotion)
-Relieves dryness without causing breakouts
-Has never caused a breakout for me despite using LOTS at a time

Cons:

-Can be messy
-Can cause shininess
-Can gunk up makeup brushes, etc. in a way that lotions might not

After searching for years and years for a moisturizer that would tame my dry and red skin without causing breakouts, I finally found out what I was looking for was simple and natural and under my nose the whole time. I've spent far too much money on department store moisturizers, trying to find some new technology to solve my skin problems. What I didn't know was that oil (per se) doesn't cause breakouts. I was walking around with dry, flaky skin, feeling as if moisture=acne. If you haven't read about this, look it up. Finding that the right kinds of oils can help calm your skin and keep it from being irritated was a huge eye-opener for me. It's counter-intuitive but now I'm definitely a believer. Of course you'll want to ease yourself in to using it, start small, try a test area first and see how it goes. I was *terrified* to put oil on my skin. Now I absolutely slather the stuff on and my skin has never been better. I recently started mixing in a couple drops of tea tree oil (in the whole bottle, not for each application--can be very drying) for extra acne-fighting potential, but it worked great before I did this as well.

Pros:

skin is softer
clears acne
a lot of pros

Cons:

Doesn't absorb too quickly, so take caution if you use it right before going out

My skin works well with nature made products, and this is all natural. Like it says, your skin thinks of the jojoba oil as its own, so it works really well. I found this to work well on my face as well as the rest of my body (I have eczema). Just be careful and do not use it right before you have somewhere to be, because it may not absorb in time. Even if it doesn't work on your face, there are other uses, and it won't leave any marks or make your skin worse.

Pros:

Positive results almost immediately. Lightweight and very easy to use. A perfect moisturiser. Cost effective as it goes a very long way.

Cons:

I have found none whatsoever.

I have suffered with acne since having my first child 16 years ago. Hormone levels are apparently to blame and I have used all kinds of treatments over the years - none of them have worked except to bleach bedding and towels! Since using jojoba oil my spots and scars have almost disappeared - I only wish I'd known about it sooner. I have very sensitive skin but have had no problems with jojoba oil. I still get the odd flare up depending on the time of the month but nothing compared to what I use to be like. Jojoba oil seems to stop spots in their tracks and visibly reduces them overnight! I've heard to many claims that different products do this but honestly jojoba oil really works! Ooh and incidently - jojoba oil is fab on fine lines that are starting to appear around the eyes.
