Jojoba Oil

Jojoba Oil is a natural triglyceride oil obtained from cold pressing the seeds of the Jojoba Plant (Simmondsia Chinensis). Jojoba Oil is actually a naturally occurring, liquefied form of vegetable wax. It is unique because its components have a striking similarity with that of sebum, an oily matter secreted by the oil glands present under the skin's surface. It is this oily substance that gives a soft and smooth texture to the human skin and hair.
