HYDROLYSED JOJOBA ESTERS

Hydrolyzed jojoba esters are obtained from jojoba oil, which is extracted from the seeds of the jojoba plant (Simmondsia chinensis). It is an excellent moisturizer and provides moisture for at least 24 hours in combination with glycerin. (1) (2)

Due to its chemical similarity to human sebum, it supports the natural balance of the skin, forms a non-greasy film for moisture retention, and regulates sebum production without clogging the pores. (3)
