Jojoba oil, refined 500 ml

Jojoba oil is a liquid wax that has good conditioning properties. The oil has a thick consistency, but with an extremely high penetration and absorption capacity, it provides a protective layer without leaving a greasy sheen on the skin and hair. It nourishes, moisturises and penetrates deeply into the pores, perfectly caring for the skin of the face, neck and décolleté. This unique oil, similar in properties to spermaceti, has no equal in chemical composition in the plant world. Synonyms: Jojobaöl, Jojoba Oil, Beurre de jojoba, Production method: cold press Physical and chemical parameters Appearance from pale yellow to bright yellow, viscous liquid Iodine number 83 Saponification number 93 Cosmetic action: The properties of jojoba oil are due to its amino acids - protein, which resembles collagen - a wax-like substance. Approximately 25% of sebum is made up of waxy esters, similar in composition to jojoba oil. Thanks to this, it is quickly absorbed, easily penetrating the skin barrier along with the biologically active ingredients dissolved in it. Mixing with sebum ingredients on the skin surface, jojoba oil forms a gas-permeable protective layer. It is characterised by a high vitamin E content, which determines its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, regenerating properties and its ability to be stored for a long time without rancidity. Forms a thin semi-permeable film upon application, which softens the skin and helps it retain moisture (reduces transepidermal water loss), forming an airtight barrier, while not blocking the normal functioning of the skin, without inhibiting the evaporation of gases and water vapour. Rejuvenates, regenerates, preserves the skin's natural moisture. It has anti-inflammatory and normalising properties, so it is useful for both dry and oily skin. Jojoba oil is also an excellent dissolving agent that effectively removes sticky layers from modern hair care products, leaving hair clean and soft. It achieves an unparalleled keratoplastic effect, which makes hair shiny and restores its natural colour and splendour. One of the main functions of the effect of lipids on the hair is moisturising, which improves the texture and manageability of the hair. The guarantee of manageable, soft and shiny hair is to keep it moisturised at all times. This is exactly what jojoba oil does: it conditions brittle and dull hair, improves its condition and protects it from unfavourable influences. Jojoba oil is popularly used in baby care cosmetics - it is quickly absorbed, does not clog delicate baby skin, perfectly protects and moisturises it. Jojoba oil is indispensable in the formulation of sunscreen and after-sun products, sunscreen creams and lotions, lip balms due to its high resistance to oxidation and temperature, ability to increase resistance to oxidation of other ingredients and ability to reduce the negative effects of free radicals on skin lipids.
