Cons:
The smell
i have not been using it for long but so far i have not seen any change in my skin. i have dry skin and only get a few breakouts now and then but so far my skin dont feel much diffrent and i've still been getting small breakouts.

Pros:
healthy skin, brighter complexion, no need for a moisturizer...get rid of all cosmetics...its natural and 100% results in 2 days
Cons:
Nothing
I had too much acne and itchy skin... after trying various itch creams for 2months, I found jojoba oil... it worked in 3 days and since then I apply it everyday and its the best beauty product I have ever bought. It makes my face glow, no itching on my arms or legs...and 100% satisfactory. Highly recommended even if you dont have any skin problems.. Jojoba Oil is the best product ever made!

Pros:
Gentle, natural, cheap. A few drops go a long way. Can be used as a makeup remover, lip balm, moisturiser. I LOVE this stuff!
Cons:
Being a severe acne sufferer, it took a while to be okay with the idea of putting oil on an already oily face. Does not treat acne alone, I am also on Diane and Bactrim, and I cleanse with Cetaphil.
Who would have thought an OIL would be good for acne? I use a few drops on my face and neck at night instead of a moisturiser. Used in conjunction with medication and a gentle moisturiser, my cystic acne disappeared within 2 months! Now I have healthy, spot-free skin! Another tip: If you get a bit flaky and don't like to use harsh abraisive exfoliators, gently rub the oil all over your face then wet a face towel with warm water and gently massage it over your skin. You can also use this method to remove makeup.

Pros:
Effective
Cons:
Very Expensive
Jojoba Oil works really well for me, even better when I add some tea tree essential oil to the jojoba. The one problem I have is that the oil from Desert Essence is SO expensive. I've now switched to using Wellspring Ecologics organic jojoba which cost me like half of what I paid for the D.E. even after shipping and which I found a bit more silky on my skin. Does anyone else use essential oils in jojoba? Any suggestions? I'm thinking of trying lavender.

Pros:
Cheap, natural, soothing, light.
Cons:
The bottle is a bit of a pain.
I have been using this for about three weeks now. I just add a drop or two to my Johnson's Baby Lotion - the only moisturizer that doesn't irritate my skin - in the morning and at night. I exfoliate using epsom salt with makes my skin so smooth and then replenish moisture using jojoba oil. I think castor works better than jojoba for cleansing while jojoba is a no contest winner for moisturizer. I have not moisturized my face on a daily basis in forever because the moisturizers tend to make me too greasy. Jojoba doesn't do that at all. I can't believe I actually use this twice a day everyday!

Pros:
works! smells great, easy to use, not drying
I was skeptical of everyone who was posting reviews after using this for such a short period of time, and scared this was going to cause a break out so I let it sit in my cabinet a few days before I tried it. However, this is the third day I've used it and I can say that it's been amazing. I have hormonal acne and nothing, absolutely nothing, has worked for me, but this seems to really be helping. I combined mine with tea tree oil and a little bit of lavender and I love the way it makes my skin feel. I noticed that my pores shrunk, blackheads on my nose that I've had for 10 years are shrinking fast, the redness is down, and spots I've had for a long time are shrinking, it's also helping with the post inflammatory hyper-pigmentation. This combination seems to be working as a moisturizer, as a way to heal my acne, prevent more acne, and surprisingly as a toner too. My overall skin tone is much more even and my skin where there aren't any breakouts to heal is actually glowing. I love it!

Pros:
Only thing that works while on accutane
Cons:
epensive, awkward bottle dispensing cap
I'm guessing its working, Ive been on accutane for 2 months and most of my active acne is subsiding but I seem to be getting just red spots that show up all the time. I dont know if it is hyperpigmentation from old lesions or just pimples that dont completely form. Anybody know? Bottom line: if you have flaky skin that normally requires a huge amount of lotion that still just results in flakyness, this is an all day cure

Pros:
My face has been clearer than it has been for a year and a half since using for only 2 weeks
Cons:
None
I have never posted a review before, but I felt i must for jojboa oil so i can help people like me.
I have had acne since getting off the pill about a year and half ago which has been constant, i always had at least one or two spots on my face and bottom line is - i never a clear complexion. Tried a lot of over the counter medications (I am a pharmacist) but nothing seemed to help and just aggravated my face into a dry mess. Anywho, so I tried jojoba oil after reading the recommendations and it's only been two weeks but i haven't had ONE spot since using it. Very thrilled. And i have oily skin, but as everyone has said it hasn't been a problem. In fact, before using i used to wake up with a lot of oil on my face and that hasnt happened since using the jojoba. So i cannot recommend it enough. Hope this helps someone.

Pros:
It has softened my skin, made it less oily, has not made me break out more. I find the best way to use it is to put a tiny amount on your face before you dry it after washing. Massage it in, then pat your face dry.
Cons:
none
I love it for every part of my body. Worth the money. Certainly cost less in the long run than trying every acne remedy on the shelves. We all have a drawer off stuff that never worked. Imagine if we added up what all that stuff cost us.
Pros:
absorbed easy.
