A recent study has identified Jojoba Desert's JD Jojoba Oil (INCI: Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil) as a sustainable alternative to mineral oil in cosmetic formulations.
The study demonstrated that JD Jojoba Oil matches mineral oil's efficacy in enhancing skin hydration and reducing Trans Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) in both short and long-term, per the company.

JD Jojoba Oil is naturally derived, eco-friendly and aligns with the demand for natural ingredients. It is also ideal for acne-prone skin and possesses anti-inflammatory properties, per the company.
The ingredient offers skin nutrients such as wax esters and Tocopherols, providing nourishment for the skin. It also acts as a skin barrier enhancer, shielding the skin from external elements and promoting overall skin health, per the company.
Anna Aharoni, Ph.D., R&D manager at Jojoba Desert, commented: "Incorporating JD Jojoba Oil into cosmetic formulations contributes to a more natural, ethical approach and ensures healthier, more radiant skin."
