Raw Jojoba Butter

An excellent emollient and rich in essential fatty acids and vitamin E, Jojoba is known for being similar in composition to the skin’s sebum and is an excellent ingredient that helps balance oil production whilst also acting as a humectant, sealing in moisture by creating a protective film over skin and hair.

Jojoba Butters Benefits

1. It’s an excellent moisturiser

Jojoba butter works to attract water to your skin and keep the moisture locked in. It’s a humectant and this makes it a really powerful moisturiser.

2. It’s antibacterial

One reason why jojoba butter is great for acne and combatting breakouts is that it is rich with antimicrobial and antifungal properties.

3. It’s a powerful antioxidant

Antioxidants are needed in our skincare to mop up the free radicals that our skin is exposed to in daily life and which contribute to ageing and other skin conditions. Jojoba butter is naturally rich in Vitamin E which is an important skincare antioxidant.

4. It doesn’t clog your pores and in fact can help to unclog them

Jojoba butter is a non-comedogenic. This means it won’t clog your pores. Indeed, it’s kind of like the natural oil in your skin and so your skin can handle it in exactly the same way. Jojoba butter even goes a step further – it can actually unclog your pores. This is because it helps your skin to regulate its own oil production. As such, jojoba butter is remarkable for actually helping to unblock your pores naturally.

5. It’s safe for those with allergies

We’re yet to hear of someone having an allergic reaction to jojoba oil. It’s possible, but it’s rare! Compared to many other essential oils, jojoba butter is calming and soothing, and isn’t associated with irritation or allergies.

6. It’s excellent for skin healing

There’s evidence which shows that jojoba butter can help your skin to produce more collagen. Collagen is important for your skin’s health, with its healing properties and ability to weather the effects of ageing.

There is also specific evidence that jojoba butter can actually help to encourage wound healing. So whether it’s a scratch or a spot, jojoba butter can help.

7. It’s great for scarring

When it comes to skin healing, jojoba butter goes a step further. Jojoba butter is rich in Vitamin E and this is excellent at helping to treat scars and to gradually reduce their redness and appearance. If you’ve got recent acne scars, it can be very beneficial.

8. It’s soothing for dry skin

Those with dry skin, whether because of ageing or conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, need to choose their skincare wisely. Jojoba oil is excellent for dry skin, and is wonderfully soothing and calming.

9. It’s soothing for sunburn too

Those same soothing properties are also on hand in jojoba oil if you’ve overdone it in the sun. The Vitamin E in jojoba oil will get to work with antioxidants and aiding healing.

10. It may help alleviate the signs of ageing

We can presume, from the high Vitamin E concentration, and the hydrating and soothing properties, that jojoba oil is good for addressing the effects of ageing head on. Many people advocate that jojoba oil is great for reducing the appearance of those fine lines and wrinkles.
