"I purchase this wonderful oil quite often because I am a hairstlyist and I use it everyday on my clients. I never liked to use alot of oil or oily products. This oil is different because it is the only moisturizing oil available. All other oils just lubricate. Jojoba oil moisturizes and lubricates.

I have used other brands but I like this one the best and highly recommend it to my clients. They purchase it because they like the look and feel of their hair when they leave the salon. I call it liquid gold!

The added benefit is that it is also excellent for the skin and scalp. I use it on my skin whenever I run out of lotion. It makes the skin feel soft and silky and keeps my skin moisturized all day long. It especially works well on the heels of my feet.

I believe this is a product that I will continue to purchase and use for as long as I have purchasing power!"

"I have been using this on my hair, body, and face. I can't speak more highly of it. By this time of year, my face is very dry even though I use creams. With creams and this oil, I have not seen any real flaking. I also use it on my hair to give it a nice shine and when I shampoo once to twice a week. I am feeling a big difference with the ends. They don't feel as rough and scratch. As for my body, my skin is very soft. I love how this oil just soaks in to my skin so quickly. It does not leave any residue. I say give it a try. It might surprise you."

Good for Dry Skin, September 14, 2009
By Bman from Irvine, CA

"I use this product right when I get out of the shower and then towel off any excess oil to leave a great soft feel to my skin. This is really a great product especially if you are sensitive to smell (there is none) or don't care for the chemicals found in lotion."

"i use this product to moisturize and deep condition my hair and occasionally to take off makeup. it's a great make up remover. i usually mix some of this jojoba oil in with my regular deep conditioner and then sit under a heating cap. I have 4a/4b hair and this helps keep it moisturized, soft and healthy. highly recommended!"

"I bought this to take off my eye makeup. WOW! I wipe my eyeliner off easily. Even better then my old chemical filled eyemakeup remover. So I read all the wonderful things Jojoba can do. I use it on my daughters dry curly hair and I use it as a moisterizer. Trust me you will find a way to use it! Plus I learned it has a very long shelf life."

"This is a really good skin conditioner. Really helps with sunburns too as I have been dumb lately and forgot to apply sunblock before going outdoors, lol. I combine it with aloe vera gel for that and wam, no peeling. Poor it in the tub to moisturize my whole body, mix it in a spray bottle of water to help my hair stay soft and use it the night I die my hair to give back that much needed moisture. The best part, in the tub it does not leave a greasy residue which could make you slip and fall."
