Findings
Jojoba oil contains wax esters (about 98% of the oil) plus vitamins and sterols that show antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties in research. The review found evidence supporting its use for acne and psoriasis, though most studies reviewed were lab-based or traditional use rather than human clinical trials.
