Jojoba

It improves elasticity and suppleness of the skin. It works as an anti-inflammatory, making it useful in the care of irritated and inflamed skin. Jojoba Seed Oil (1) is our best friend! A light silky and emollient liquid wax with similar chemical composition and characteristics to human sebum, it’s ideally compatible to our skin! It absorbs quickly and it’s excellent for sensitive and all types of skins. It reduces the appearance of fine lines and smooths dry and “crepe-y” skin due to its Gadoleic Acid (Eicosenoic Acid) and Erucic Acid. Its occlusive and antioxidant properties come from its Oleic and Palmitic Acids, acting against the harshness of environmental factors that may cause premature aging. Its Palmitoleic Acid has a toning and moisturizing effects. Its Stearic Acid softens and cleanses skin, which promotes healthy pores, and new cells to grow. Its Behenic Acid improves hydration, Vitamin E acts as a major antioxidant. Vitamin B Complex locks moisturization, and prevent further signs of aging, helping with hyperpigmentation since it regulates melanin production.
