Pros:

Made my skin GLOW like a goddess!!!!!!! Works on acne, makes skin smooth and supple!

Cons:

NONE!

WOW. I have tried everything for my acne: Proactiv, AcneFree, dozens of topical creams/gels from the dermitologist, prescriptions... etc., and NOTHING worked as well as jojoba oil. I first used it on my body after the shower, and I noticed that any acne on my back or chest would dissappear after using it. I read all of the great reviews on here and decided to use it on my face. It does take a little bit to work on acne, though. It's a slow process, but definetley worth it. I'm clearing up. ALSO, I put it on my face before bed and wake up looking like a goddess with the face as smooth and beautiful as you can imagine... not bad for someone who had skin just the opposite before using this miracle oil. TRY IT TRY IT TRY IT!!!!!!! You have to!

Pros:

Super soft, healthy, glowy skin.
If I squeeze something I won't wake up looking sick like I have the plague. I'll have glowy skin and a little wound with minimal redness that looks like it's healing well.

Blackheads and areas with black heads are less 'raised.' Far fewer blackhead on my forehead.

I have dry peely skin, especially if I squeeze pimples/blackhead but not since I've used this.

A little goes a really long way

Results seen in just a couple of hour

Cons:

I still have the same amount of blackheads on my chin and in the creases of my nose. They may even be a little 'blacker' but it could just be that there is no flaky white dead skin hanging around to conceal this.

Makes my hair a bit greasy cos my fringe gets goes all over my face.

Super amazing. No need for a moisturiser now. I don't know how I lived without it. Only use a little and apply downwards, gently with clean hands. Squeeze a pimple? After you wash the area and disinfectant jojoba it!

Clear skin for the first time in 7yrs
All I do is wash my face with a wash cloth (hot water when I shower, cold water any other time) one to two times per day and afterwards moisturize with a few drops of jojoba oil all over my face. I have had acne since I was 12 (I'm 19 now) and it had gotten a bit better with age but was showing no signs of being gone soon. I always said I would write a review if something finally worked for me this is that review! I can finally trust that my skin will be clear

Pros:

Exceptionally good moisturizer
Assists with Oil production
Removes acne!
Easy to use
Cheap

Cons:

None!

I've had moderate acne for about 10 years and have not had much (or any) success with any treatment i've ever used. About 5 months ago I started using the acne.org treatment and it was helping a little, but not that much(20% improvement). About 3 months ago I started adding about 6 drops of Jojoba oil to the treatment (BP) twice a day and it's worked amazingly ! It's completely removed any dryness and REPLACED my moisteriser completely (I never use moisteriser anymore, don't need it). It's also completely stopped the excessive oil production in my face. My Acne is probably 85% better, and i'm rather happy that after all these years it looks like a natural treatment is significantly responsible for the improvement. Try it, seriously. It might not do anything for you, but for me it was the last option before biting the bullet and going to Accutane. Now I won't need to touch Accutane!

Generally improved my skin
I have super dry (obviously) acne prone skin. A really fantastic combination, right? I also get to deal with moderate acne as well. I've always struggled with my skin and finding ways to improve my face without using tons of harsh chemicals and such. My skin has always also caused me troubles whenever applying foundation as we'll because basically no matter what I did my foundation would end up looking flakey and gross after a few hours. After buying jojoba oil from the vitamin shoppe I was a little nervous since almost everything makes me break out and nothing ever helps my skin. I believe it has helped my skin greatly. My skin texture is no longer super bumpy and gross and it looks so much smoother and almost glowing. It has also helped in tandem with a nightly honey mask to reduce redness and my scars don't look quite as noticeable. I use this to also remove my makeup at the end of the day. I'm a night-showerer so I use this to remove makeup, shower, leave on my face for at least 5 minutes, wash off, use honey, wash off after at least 10 minutes and reapply the jojoba oil before I go to bed. I don't use a whole lot- just about a nickel sized amount. I also usually let it set in for a few minutes at least before I kind of oil-blot my face and then go to bed and use it once again in the morning for my makeup. It may seem a little excessive but it has helped my skin so much. In combination with jojoba oil and layering on my foundation mixed with some moisturizer, I've found the secret to keeping my skin fairly flake free. I haven't broken out hardly at all since using this (although it's been only about 2-3ish weeks). I think this has transformed my skin. I realize this product is not for everyone but for those with dry, flakey, acne prone skin it might do the job. Hopefully my decent skin lasts because I now feel somewhat comfortable walking outside without applying makeup. My skin is so much softer and I don't feel greasy or dry or anything. I do recommend this product to anyone with similar issues.

Pros:

-Drastically helped with overly oily face
-Helps keep acne down
-Make skin smoother and not flake

Cons:

Bad reaction at first but in a week it passed.

This product is miraculous. I had SUPER oily skin and nothing worked to calm it down. This has helped me so much to balance oil production I cant believe it. At first I got a bad flareup which is usual, but in a week my skin looked amazing. Dont expect it to work instantly. Give it some time and you will see great results.

How long was the initial breakout and do you still use it?

Pros:

makes hair and skin smooth, soft, and well moisturized...naturally!

Cons:

can be hard to find

My skin has become so dry due to Spironolactone; this oil works great for me when mixed with my regular moisturizer. My skin just swallows it up. A few drops is all it takes - otherwise you will be too greasy. I also apply roughly 6 or 7 drops to my damp hair after washing, then style as usual...looks like I spend hundreds on my hair! Love this stuff!

Pros:

Relatively inexpensive
A little goes a long way. Have only used 2/3 of the bottle in about a year
Good quality!

Cons:

None. Container gets oily, but this really isn't a con. Heh. Dan must wish the bottle didn't last so long!

I love this! Never really thought about applying this to treat acne, but am thinking about it since reading other reviews. I have used it for other purposes though, almost daily. - moisurizing dry, itchy skin, shaving, and can be a lot of fun to use with a partner. Not really sure how much I paid at the time. Will definitely buy again before I run out!

unclogged my pores! and has healed my skin
I've recently started getting these really bad breakouts and a lot of bumps on my forehead, cheeks and chin area. I tried so many products including ones that were meant for acne which just made my skin irritated and breakouts worst. a friend told me that I should stop using products on my face all together and stick to a basic skin routine, and that helped so much. I stopped using moisturizers which I noticed were a huge cause for my breakouts. I steered clear of any oils even though I heard coconut oil was good. I only washed my face with purity cleanser & applied tea tree oil to acne prone areas. but my skin got super dry after I would wash it with just water, and I still had lots of clogged pores. after searching up stuff on the internet I heard jojoba oil was great for unclogging pores. I was sure that it would be something that wouldn't work for me and just cause more breakouts, but it didn't! my skin is completely smooth and areas where I used to have lots of clogged pores are completely cleared! I highly recommend using it as a cleanser for makeup too. I love it
