Jojoba Oil

I read about Jojoba oil on this site actually and began applying it when I was taking accutane, and NOTHING could rid me of dry skin EXCEPT the Jojoba oil. This stuff kept me moisturized all day so my face wouldn't start flaking after a couple of hours (thank god, because that is so embarassing!!) I've recommended it to two other girls who have nothing but great things to say about the stuff. I don't know how I went on so long without this stuff and I thank these message boards for helping me find the good stuff FINALLY!!!!

I started using jojoba last month and stopped within my 2nd week because I felt it wasn't doing much. I kept putting it in my hair because I is so great with my hair. About 1 week ago, i started using it on my face again. in the morning i cannot apply it b/c its too greasy. i apply my aha sunscreen for the daytime after washing with a mild soap (either spectro or aveeno moisturizing bar). i give my face a quick rince at lunch time so that i can reapply my sunscreen. in the evening, i wash my face with spectro jel and apply 4 drops of jojoba oil to my face. in the night, i just rince off the jojoba oil with warm water and a little soap if it is needed. and i apply my BP. so far i feel good about my skin. i hope this will help fade my scars and keep my acne away.

This is by far the most amazing moisturizer for any type of skin!

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.

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.

Try it. I use ProActiv and I think that while using Jojoba oil together is the main reason my skin is clear of acne.

Been using this oil for a couple of weeks now as a moisturizer, and this made my sensitive and oily skin blemish & pimple-free. Love it! Love it! Highly recommended for acne prone skin.

This stuff is great. I use it only at night, and since using it, even my morning shave has been affected. My shave is now closer, smoother, and faster. This is truly the missing ingredient in an already great regimen. It was kinda expensive for a one ounce bottle, but it lasts a long time.

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.

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
