Ukrainian beauty brand Triuga presents 100% natural jojoba oil. It is one of the most popular cosmetic oils due to its wide range of skin and hair benefits. The product is completely free of any additives.
Jojoba oil is cold-pressed from the seeds of Simmondsia chinensis, a shrub native to the Southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico. It is liquid at room temperature; unrefined jojoba oil has a golden colour and a slightly nutty odour, while refined oil is colourless and odourless.
Jojoba oil is valued due to its unique chemical composition. Although it is referred to as oil, it is in fact a liquid wax composed of wax esters (mono-esters of long-chain fatty acids and alcohols), whereas most vegetable oils are composed of triglyceride esters. Because of this, jojoba oil is extraordinary resistant to high temperatures and has a long shelf life.
Jojoba oil is primarily composed of liquid wax esters of gondoic (11-Eicosenoic) acid, eruric acid, and oleic acid, with smaller amounts of behenic, lignoceric, nervonic, palmitic, palmitoleic, and stearic acid wax esters. It also contains various amino acids and vitamin E (tocopherol). Due to its rich chemical composition, jojoba oil has a wide range of beauty benefits.
For instance, this oil has a moisturising, softening, regenerative, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect on the skin. It improves skin firmness and elasticity, prevents irritation and flaking, and helps to smooth out fine lines. Jojoba oil is suitable for all skin types, but it is especially beneficial for dry, problem, and mature skin.
When used as a body care product, jojoba oil helps to prevent stretch marks, reduce the appearance of cellulite, and stimulate the regeneration of sunburnt skin. As a hair care product, it helps to repair the structure of dyed or bleached hair, takes good care of dry and brittle hair, strengthens the hair from root to tip, reduces hair loss, and makes the hair softer and shinier.
Directions. The oil can be applied as is or mixed with other carrier oils. It can also be used to dilute essential oils or added to creams, lotions, shampoos, hair conditioners and other off-the-shelf cosmetic products. Apply to wet skin. Rub into hair roots and then spread from root to tip.
