INGREDIENT NAME: JOJOBA OIL
INCI Name: Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil
Origin
Jojoba oil is derived from the seeds of the Simmondsia chinensis plant, a shrub native to the arid regions of North America. Technically a liquid wax, its composition closely resembles human sebum, making it ideal for balancing and protecting the skin.
Main properties
1) Hydrating and balancing
Thanks to its similarity to sebum, jojoba oil helps regulate oil production, providing suitable hydration for all skin types—including oily skin.
2) Protective and softening
It forms a protective barrier on the skin’s surface, helping to prevent moisture loss while keeping the skin soft and supple.
3) Repairing and soothing
Its anti-inflammatory properties help calm irritation and repair damaged skin.
