not for me
First time day using this it was great. Over the next 2 days I had little white pimples. And two huge red inflamed things. Not happy, guess I'll keep trying. Hopefully this acne stage goes away soon.

Pros:

Easy to apply
Feels natural and nice

Cons:

Made me break out all over my face!

I tried this oil for about a week but I had to stop since it caused me a masive break out. Now I use the rest of the oil as a moisturizer for my legs after shaving and that works very well. But it worsened my acne in my face, unfortunately. Can no recommend for acne care.

Not for me
For the first couple of weeks I thought this was a miracle but then I had the worst breakout of my life and am still struggling with my skin four months later. Apparently I had a reaction with an 'essential ingredient'.

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!

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:

soothes flakey skin.

Cons:

no changes for me

I'm not sure about jojoba oil. i dont feel like it did anything for my skin. no changes. i'm still breaking out and i can't tell if jojoba is contributing to it, but i just know it isn't making much of a difference. I have oily skin, cystic acne concentrated on cheeks, forehead, and especially bad around jawline. i think an internal cure works best for me.

Pros:

None - maybe moisturizing, but not worth the side effects...

Cons:

Broke me out horribly - slowly, but surely more and more

Okay, so I was enticed by all the reviews and research I did on this stuff to somehow miraculously hydrate as well as combat blemishes. Woeeee...I gave it a good try - about a month and a half. Long enough, right to see if this stuff works? I was purging horribly w/plugs that never seemed to stop and developed some extra stuff, too, like continual whiteheads and other full-blown pimps - everywhere. Yuck. I finally couldn't take it anymore when I realized it just wasn't working, and now I'm going back to what worked for me a year ago to achieve perfect skin: -Thoroughly Clean Face Wash w/Extra-Gentle BufPuf -Baking Soda Paste w/h2o (in shower 2-3xwk, as needed) -Proactiv Toner, Lotion Hope this helps some of you to decide whether to try it or not - try new things slowly, do a test patch first!

Pros:

natural, not too expensive

Cons:

may break you out

the regimen made my skin extremely dry and flakey, so i did as recommended and started using jojoba oil every day. i feel like it did not help the dryness but it caused 3-4 whiteheads every day. never happened to me like this before. i stopped using it and reduced the amount of BP instead and right now i'm pretty much clear. maybe i just used too much of it but i decieded to stay away from it for now.

Pros:

none

Cons:

greasy, oily, caused major breakout

I used it with Dans moisterizer and put 5-6 drops mixed in because I had always had the problem with flaky skin.I was on Dans regime for 3 yrs with great success and no major breakouts just the flaky skin. Saw that he recd this to solve the flakes so I tried this and immediately broke out-large cyst that I had to go to the derm and get a cortizone shot to get rid of it. It also caused my face to be greasy for the weeks or so I was using it. Tossed it out! Beware if you have oily to combo skin-it can cause you to break out! I will never use any oil on my face of any kind.
