Acne.org : Organic Jojoba Oil

My skin was feeling tight an hour after moisturizing alone with the regimen. This stuff seems to keep my skin from feeling tight and reduces the flaking when applied.

I use jojoba for all kinds of things. I add some to Dan's moisturizer (or even put it on straight) when my face is particularly dry. You just have to be careful not to use to much, or you will be shiny. I use it as a makeup remover. I use it to moisturize my lips and hands. I use it as a massage oil. I add it to warm water and lemon juice and soak my hands in it as part of a manicure. My by gripe: The top leaks. The bottle is always covered in oil. (I hate to think what would happen if I packed this in a suitcase.) There is something gross (probably bacteria) growing in the hinge part of the cap where I can't get it clean. There is also stuff floating in the oil, which I'm guessing is also bacteria. Gross! The next bottle I buy will be decanted into a bottle that seals properly.

I haven't used this for quite a week yet, but I really like it so far. I've been having problems with my skin being really dry (for no reason at all, I never used to have dry skin) and none of the moisturizers I used helped. Cetaphil had the best results, which made my face very oily/shiny, but lasted longer than the others despite still having flakiness by the end of the day. So I bought the jojoba oil to give it a shot. It helped out a lot with the flakiness. Rarely does my skin have flaky spots at the end of the day. I've also been using it on my lips and I really like it. I've never used chapstick before because it always felt weird and never actually helped (but we always got the cheap brands). But this really does feel nice on my lips and seems to be helping with the dryness of them. I have gotten a few pimples lately since using the jojoba oil. I still broke out some times before I started using this, so this may just be my time to have a break out. I'll try using Dan's moisturizer again, with this added and see if it still helps out with flakiness and oiliness/shininess. If I continue breaking out, I'll likely stop using it and just have to deal with flaky skin.

I would recommend it for men for a preshave lotion. The bottle will last you for months and if you are having issues with flaking it may help when used with your moisturizer.

Great stuff if you are on the BP regime. A little goes A LONG WAY for sure. You only need a drop or two mixed in with your moisturizer for your whole face! I think this bottle will last me 10 yrs, :) I dont notice a bad smell to it at all and I think they must have improved the bottle as mine does not leak at all.

I'm writing this review based on the healing properties of jojoba oil on my neck eczema. I developed a small patch of eczema on my neck 5 years ago when I was 20. Cortisone creams and the Elidel cream (both prescribed to me by various dermatologists) helped control it, but they are not meant to be used on a long term basis. So I sought alternative creams that could help. I've tried almost everything on the market - L'Occitane shea butter, The Body Shop Vitamin E cream, Clinique, Hope's Eczema Relief Cream, Sebamed, Jurlique Calendula Cream, Avene Cold Cream ... imagine all the money that I've wasted over a patch of unsightly eczema! But then, I bought jojoba oil from this website with the intention of applying it to my face as a moisturiser. I extended its application to my neck, and at last, I have found a product that doesn't contain steroids but which controls my eczema! I can't say this will help all eczema sufferers, but it's worth giving it a try!

I use it every night on my face and occasionally on my lips. It definitely makes your lips smoother and softer, but I haven't actually noticed THAT much of a difference on my face. However, I have only been using it for about 2 weeks. I think it is definitely worth the extra money. No flakiness, and it makes your skin softer.

Sadly, this product doesn't work for everyone. I was thrilled at the idea of using a natural plant-based oil as a multi-purpose product. I started using a couple drops in the beginning and mixing it with my Regimen moisturizer. When my skin got worse, I gradually started using more until my skin was completely riddled with red bumps, milia and a horrible itchy rash on my neck. I didn't want to waste the bottle, so I decided I could use it as a hand/cuticle treatment. Well, the first morning after using it, I woke up with hard, scaley skin all over my hands. So then I thought maybe I could use it as an undereye moisturizer, because I've heard jojoba is a "miracle anti-aging treatment". After using it for 2 months, I have lines under my eyes that have never been there before. I must be one of the unlucky few who are extremely allergic to Jojoba. My skin has also cleared a little after discontinuing the Regimen moisturizer, which I noticed also has Jojoba in it. It's worth a try, though!

I don't use this on my face, but I love it for my shoulders and upper arms, which can get very dry. It is the perfect balance of light feel and deep hydration, and there is no smell to bug my sensitive nose all day! I got badly sunburned recently and it worked much better on that than any of the aloe lotions/gels I'd been using.

Unbelievable moisture, i am on Accutane and it is the only thing that has saved me and I also see an improvement in the red marks, they are slowly fading!!!! Highly recomend!!!
