Teak Naturals Cold Pressed Organic Jojoba Oil Natural Unrefined Pure Jojoba Oil Moisturizer for Skin Hair and Nails - 4 Ounces

This is the third or fourth time I have brought this product. I love jojoba oil and Teak Naturals is definitely one of the best I’ve found. If you are looking to replace your store bought lotions and creams with natural products that require little to no work, then you need jojoba in your life!Things to keep in mind:- Pay attention to the expiration date! I always use mine before I have to worry, but if you use yours slower you need to be aware of how long it will last.- When mixing it with other oils and such, make sure you are making smallish batches. Store bought lotions have preservatives in them to keep the ingredients fresh and bacteria free. Since it is those very additives that seem to do our skin wrong, it isn’t recommended to add them to homemade products unless you are selling them. Pay attention to the expiration date of this oil and any others you put in it, and use the most recent date to determine the shelf life of the mixture.- I make my concoctions in small glass jars with lids. Make absolutely sure that NO WATER comes into contact with the mixture! This is VERY important! When I first started using oil to wash my face, I would simply pour the oil from the jar into the palm of my hand. I never noticed or paid attention to how I was doing this (resting the jar on my palm to pour in order to have more control of the amount). But my hands were often wet from brushing my teeth, so the oil would enter my palm and then some would go back into the jar. Within a week I had some stuff floating in there. I assumed it was just dirt or whatever that had fallen in. Nope, by the end of that week it was obviously gross. Water = mold/bacteria, even in tiny amounts! Don’t get me wrong, bacteria and mold will absolutely grow eventually without water (that’s why I recommend paying attention to the expiration date), but without water exposure my mixtures have lasted for months as opposed to weeks. So, when pouring this product into your hand, leave the edge of the jar an inch or so from your skin. If you get too much just rub it on a body part that needs some hydration!- Oil is wonderful for your skin because it helps to hold the moisture in and keep it from evaporating. That being said, the best way to use these oils for hydration is to use while your skin is still a little damp. The oils themselves do not provide much moisture (which is a good thing or it wouldn’t last long), so to get the best results wet your skin before applying. I like to use Teak Natural’s Rose Water for this. Smells heavenly ❤️❤️Uses:- Face Wash: I use this on my agingish (I’m 36) skin. My pre-teen girls do this and their faces are free from the acne plaguing their friends. I have also turned my teenage nieces on to this technique and they are in love ❤️❤️- Make up remover: especially good for stubborn eye makeup and when used just before the above face washing technique.-Facial Moisturizor:- All over body hydration- You can also use jojoba oil to condition your hair!Jojoba oil is a carrier oil for Essential Oils as well. I do not chose to add essential oils to my everyday routine because I’ve found that the oils work best when used sparingly. Some people do use them everyday and claim good results. I will leave that one up to you though. However, if someone is encouraging you to use oils regularly (or at all really), or if you are just interested in using Essential Oils, please please PLEASE do some research first! Preferably research outside of an MLM company such as Youngliving or DoTerra. Both of these companies have recommended very potentially unsafe uses of oils. Maybe you’ll be fine, but maybe you won’t be, and if your luck is anything like mine you will want to avoid taking a gamble because you will be the one in a million to lose!For more information about using natural products on a budget from someone who uses them and is documenting the process with pictures, please email me: [email protected]. I will be happy to send you detailed information for using jojoba oil that I’ve mentioned here for no cost! In the next two weeks I will have my blog and Pinterest page going, but first I want to finish up my “experiments” so I will have something to show everyone 😊. I will update this review with that info when I have it, but until then send an email or find me on Facebook @ Terra Ternet. Have a great day!!

I honestly love this stuff. A little goes a long way, there's no strong scent and it's affordable. I originally bought it as a cleaner but effective replacement for makeup remover and now I find myself using it for moisturizing myself and my toddler. Highly impressed and highly recommend!

Not sure how i went so long without using jojoba oil in a pure natural form. I literally use this every day...for everything from hair to face to feet. Even my toddler's face. We're both allergic to everything outside lol. I mean, during allergy season, apart from sneezing, we get rashes. I get one particularly on my forehead. My dermatologist gave me steroids, antibiotics and some cream that just made it more irritated. My skin has always been "beautiful". That is the word people used most of my life, but in my late 30's this stupid thing started happening and it stood out from the rest of my face. It gets super itchy, dry and flaky. Makes me so self conscious, i feel for people that fight different skin conditions all their life!Well this does amazing things for me. The next morning, after one application, its about 50 percent better. By 3 days, it's gone and my skin looks great. No itching either, which is great. I put this on before my moisturizer, which is Clinique Moisture Surge, very light weight. The combo feels fantastic and not heavy. I put this on my 2.5 year old also for any scars or scaly skin. It's non greasy, and absolutely perfect as a facial moisturizer. My son has sensitive skin like his dad and this does not irritate him. Some people swear by Rosehip oil but that is actually irritating for me. This was perfect. And the amount that you get for the price??! Pair that with the quality, no harsh smell, great bottle/dropper. I will be buying this again soon. I don't think I've gone through anything this fast!

I bought this jojoba oil to use on my hair, but was almost immediately discouraged when my hair didn't like it at all. Though it's supposed to be scentless, this oil has an odd grassy or perhaps grainy smell. It's hard to describe but I told my husband it smelled like someone dumped their lawn clippings on my head lol. So I shelved it and bought argon oil instead which works perfectly in my hair.Just when I thought this bottle of jojoba would sit forgotten in my cupboard or end up thrown away, I added a few drops of it to my lotion on a whim. Wow, what a difference. I have sensitive skin and wash my hands alot so they are always dry and during the winter months they are known to crack and bleed. Lotion alone was never enough, and I've tried them all, but just adding a few drops of jojoba to the lotion has made my hands silky smooth and moisturized. I'm very happy with it and am glad I found a use for it after my hair care fail lol. I still smell it right after I put it on, but it goes away soon after and my lotion masks it a bit so it's not as strong. I'll gladly deal with it to give my hands relief.
