Jojoba Oil
(Natural Golden) is a cold pressed ester from the seeds of the desert
shrub Simmondsia Chinensis. It is often found growing wild in the
southwestern United States and arid areas throughout the world. The
resultant "oil" is a beautiful natural golden color with slight, nutty
odor. Jojoba Oil is actually not an oil, but an array of wax esters.
Jojoba oil has very good effects on the skin, acting as a moisturizer
and emollient agent to improve skin elasticity and suppleness. Jojoba
contains natural tocopherols to minimize oxidation and hence rancidity
caused by lipid peroxidation. May be used in cosmetics, toiletries,
soaps, OTC pharmaceuticals, sun care and nutraceuticals.
