Functions
Emollient
Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Locks in moisture
Controls excess oil
Traditional Use
Jojoba oil has been used by indigenous Mexican and southwestern U.S. peoples for centuries for skin and hair conditioning. The oil closely mimics human sebum and became popular in modern skincare in the 1970s.
