A. Scharfenberger Said: A little goes a long way! ( Sep. 8th 2010 )
I have had acne since childhood and have tried almost every product under the sun to get rid of it. My sensitive skin transitioned to combination and was constantly red from all the products so finally I had had enough. This oil is amazing! A few drops covers my entire face as a moisturizer in the morning or can be blended with a moisturizer for a boost. It is lightweight and doesn't feel oily on. I have left all my old harsh products behind and am using all natural now. I wish I would have done this years ago!
Winnie Said: An incredible oil!!! ( Jul. 19th 2010 )
I have always had very dry arms and legs. Even though the rest of my body was extremely oily. Even though I covered my legs and arms in moisturizer, they still were very dry, with thick, cracked skin. When I was in high school I remember being so embarrassed when a boy who held my hand commented about how rough it was. I found out about jojoba oil when I was researching conditioning for my dry, curly hair. After I put the oil in hair I rubbed the excess into my hands. Even after showering the next morning, my hands felt incredible!!! So that night I used a small amount on my arms and legs. It feels like a miracle oil for me. And then I learned that it is biologically similar to human sebum. I wonder if all my body's sebum pores are concentrated on my torso and face and lacking in my extremities. This oil has made my arms and legs feel like they have never felt my whole life. Will never be without jojoba oil again!!!!!
K. Jackson Said: My new favorite beauty item ( Jul. 12th 2010 )
I picked up the 100% pure version at Trader Joes. It's been only a week since I started using jojoba and I am in love. I originally picked it up because I get whiteheads on my nose and was told that jojoba helps. So far I've noticed an improvement in the short time, my skin is so soft and clean looking. I'm using it as a makeup remover also.
I also have seborrhea on the back of my scalp so I thought why not try rubbing jojoba on that as well. In just the week since I've started, a massive difference. I've had this condition since I was a little kid, I've tried a lot of different treatments, this by far has given the best results. I haven't really used it on my hair. My hair is already really healthy, so the one time I rubbed the oil in my hair I didn't notice a difference.
Since it's summer now, I have started using this on my feet. In a weeks time, my heels are baby soft.
I've been so happy with the jojoba oil I'm now recommending it to friends and family.

I really like this oil. It's not as greasy as I thought it would be. It sinks into my skin after a few minutes and I don't have to worry about it ruining my clothes. I usually apply this on my skin at night. I only use this on my body not on my face and I've had no body breakouts. I've only been using this product for about a month. I gave it 4/5 stars because so far I don't feel like it's this big miracle product. I'm happy with the product and would repurchase but I wouldn't die they stopped making it.
Julie A. Palmer Said: Organic or 100% pure. There is a big difference but not less effective. ( May. 7th 2010 )
Well I have two of the same branded jojoba oil.
One is organic and the other is 100% pure. They are slightly different.
The organic has a funny odor. It kind of smells like used cooking grease. A little unsettling but the smell is not strong and I use it only on my body and hair at night (then take a shower in the morning).
I use the 100% pure oil on my face to moisturize. There is no smell at all.
The oil in general is great. It doesn't have a greasy feel on my skin.
When I use it on my face right after I wash it, I put two drops all over my face. It feels soft and clean. I have acne prone skin and this oil doesn't make me break out. That is a big factor for me because throughout the day my face gets really greasy and gross and then I start to break out. The oil feels light on my face and makes my skin soft and healthy. Sometimes I accidentally put too much on and my face and becomes definitely shiny so I just take a blotting sheet and take off the extra shine but no harm done.
When I use the organic oil on my skin and hair, After I take a shower and my hair dries, it is soft and manageable. I really like it a lot. There is a difference in using it. When I do not use it and go about my daily routine, my hair feel drier.
I have been using this for about a month and I like it a lot.
I would probably go with the 100% oil because it is odorless.
