Cons:
Can make skin look greasy if applied during the day.
This causes me to get a few zits when I use it but I would rather have those than reptile skin.

Pros:
Fantastic moisturiser
A small amount goes a long way
Calms flaking and dryness
Cons:
Leaves your skin looking shiny
This stuff is fantastic. I started the regimen using loads of Benzoyl Peroxide because I thought my skin could handle it - when the flaking and dryness got unbearable I bought a bottle of Jojoba oil and it works miracles. I use it generously before I go to bed, because using too much in the morning makes your skin really shiny. Also I think it may be helping to fade my red marks, which may be due to its high levels of Vitamin E. However I can't be certain about that, because i've also started taking zinc supplements. All in all a great product, highly recommended!

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.

Pros:
I love this stuff! It doesn't block pores at all and is great for hydrating skin made dry by using benzoyl peroxide. I also think that it 'tricks' my skin into producing less of its own oil. So this means less spots.
Cons:
Because it's an oil, it isn't great to apply make-up over the top of it as it can make it slide off your face. I tend to find that if the oil is mixed with a moisturiser this helps make-up to stay put over the top of it.
It's a great product for moisturising and it can help with reducing the amount of oil your skin produces. It can also be used as a make-up remover. A fantastic, natural, all-round product.

Pros:
Smoothens and removes flakiness on your skin, shiny hair, removes dead skin cells, easy to apply, and glowing skin.
Cons:
If you put too much on your face, it will become so shiney and greasy. It is so expensive. One bottle cost me Php 999 thats more or less $20.00.
I recommend using this product to all people who has dry/oily skin but not with those have sensitive skin - varies on each individuals. I have a very oily skin and this product didn't break me out or made my skin more oily. It's just so expensive but worth it. Just give it a try even just for a week, if it would break you out then stop it and just you it on your hair or on your body.

Pros:
it has totally cleared up my pimples, and my blackheads are disappearing too! feels great on my skin, moisturises well without making it feel or look oily.
Cons:
none! best thing I have ever used on my face. Considering otherwise I'd spend more money on a pot of day and night cream at bodyshop, this is really worth it as it's an all-in-one completely natural product and one bottle will last for a long time.
I'm so happy I've discovered this. I have combination skin- oily forehead/nose and dry around my jaw area/cheeks, and also depends on time of month, but this seems to even it out. Pimples are gone and the fine lines on my forehead also look less noticeable because my face is better moisturised. Blackheads are going away too, and scabs from old pimples have healed amazingly fast.
I've got rid of all my other moisturisers and this is all I use on my face. I put on a few drops when my face is still moist from the shower or from washing it (I use a no-soap facewash gel, or just water). It feels oily (of course) when I put it on, but I don't dry or blot my face afterwards, just leave it to dry by itself and the oil is absorbed by my skin. It doesn't look oily at all afterwards, unless I go crazy with the amount I put on (I use slightly more at night). I think it actually gives me a healthy glow! It's really worth trying, I wouldn't be writing this review if I wasn't really impressed!!

Pros:
Best moisturizer in the world, improves red marks as well as acne.
Cons:
Can feel greasy...just don't apply too much! A little goes a long way.
The brand I am using is called "now" and I bought it at GNC. My facial skin has been extremely dry and sensitive since I've taken two courses of accutane (and still have acne...its hormonal) and using jojoba oil is the only moisturizer that has ever normalized it. The redness is gone after application and my red marks fade faster. I've noticed that I'm getting 50% less pimples this month (its girly time so I'm awaiting the massive breakout...but it isn't so bad) and I think the jojoba oil is helping prevent them. It definitely doesn't cause acne! I've already pushed this product on all my friends. It's great! Affordable too...you use so little that the bottle will last a year.

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'.
June 17, 2012
Pros:
Natural
Oil closest to human skin oil
soothing
moisturizing
Easy
Doesn't take much
I use jojoba oil after I exfoliate in the shower. I mix a tiny bit of it with two drops of lavender essential oil (medicinal grade) and gently massage it into my face. I do this less in the summer when my skin isn't as dry. I love this oil because it blends right into the skin and it doesn't take much. I honestly don't know how much it prevents acne, but it helps with the inflammation because it's gentle and natural. It took me a long time to learn that a much simpler skincare routine is the best way to go. I used to look for that 'magic' product that would clear me up... and I never found it... on any drugstore shelf. In fact jojoba oil is really the only thing I use that comes in a bottle. I've been dealing with hormonal acne from coming off birth control, and only using natural products has given my skin the nutrients it needs to heal. Jojoba is a great oil, especially when mixed with essential oils. Rose, lavender, bergamot, and geranium are great oils that blend well with this as a base. If you can't eat it, don't put it on your skin.
Pros:
VERY moisturizing.
