Egyptian Jojoba Extra Virgin Oil will not clog pores and is not known to cause acne. Jojoba trees are indigenous to desert regions of south western United States. These small, drought loving bushes produce an oil filled fruit. The nut contains approximately 50% "oil", a flowing, liquid wax. The liquid wax is highly resistant to oxidation which makes it preferable for skin care use. Jojoba liquid wax is almost identical to human sebum, a substance which creates a protective layer on the skin. It contains significant amounts of tocopherols, vitamin E. Egyptian Jojoba Oil can be applied directly to the face without clogging pores. It can be combined with other premium Shea Terra skin care oils such as carrot seed, rose hips and pomegranate. Apply Egyptian Jojoba Oil to the ends of hair to prevent breakage and to the roots of hair to encourage hair growth. Shea Terra Egyptian Jojoba Oil is 100% pure and very rich. Some brands are known to dilute this more costly oil with less expensive oils like sunflower. This practice is also commonly used for argan oil. A noticeable difference can be detected in the Egyptian Jojoba. Our golden oil is completely unrefined lending a light, nutty aroma. After applying it, skin feels as soft as a brand new baby. Outside of the Nile Valley, Egypt is largely dry, barren sand in the middle of the Sahara Desert. Basking in the scorching sun, non-arable land makes up a great percentage of Egypt, one of the poorest countries in the world. Jojoba bushes are right at home in the unwelcoming biome. Jojoba production has brought a much needed source of income into extremely poor communities.
