Concern level
High concern
A wax ester-rich plant oil expressed from jojoba seeds. It functions primarily as an emollient and skin-conditioning ingredient, helping reduce transepidermal water loss and improve softness without a heavy, greasy feel. Because its composition is closer to human sebum than most vegetable oils, it is widely used in facial oils, cleansers, balms, and hair care.
