Jojoba Oil 1 gallon

This popular hair-care oil is free of dye emollients scents additives and chemicals of any kind. It is also used in combination with other oils for skin care. A liquid wax rather than an oil jojoba mimics sebum and penetrates skin very rapidly. It is therefore not good for massage but excellent for nourishing skin. It is healing for inflamed skin psoriasis eczema or any sort of dermatitis. It can help control acne and oily skin or scalp since excess sebum actually dissolves in jojoba. Jojoba is anti-oxidant and may help extend the life of other oils. Used also for hair care. Good for all skin types but can sometimes clog pores. The myristic acid it contains is anti-inflammatory so this could be a good base oil for treating rheumatism and arthritis. Use a 10% dilution or full strength.
