Jojoba: the wax that our skin loves

One of Circular Bodies’ favorite ingredients is jojoba oil. This light wax that helps replenish our skin is a hero ingredient in our Matcha Serum. We source our Jojoba locally and work with an organic grower to make sure our jojoba is sustainably and ethically sourced. But with so many oils out there, why did we choose jojoba?.

Jojoba is a shrub or small tree with multiple stems that grows in dry, arid places. Jojoba seeds grow on a single bush and are ready to be harvested when the hulls easily fall off.

BENEFITS

Centuries ago, the Native American extracted a luminous golden liquid from jojoba seeds to heal, soothe and restore their skin. This ancient super-ingredient is still used today in our products because it produces high protection for our skin. That is because jojoba is almost identical to the oil that our skin produces. In other words, jojoba oil makes your skin highly receptive to vital nutrients and antioxidants from omegas, vitamins A, D and E, that restore its natural balance. It is also able to nourish and regenerate skin cells.

LOCAL AND UNREFINED, MEET OUR JOJOBA OIL

Let’s travel to a warm, desertic place in the United States: Arizona. We source our jojoba oil locally, from a family farm in Southwest Arizona’s Sonoran Desert. Kirk and his father have cultivated and produced cold pressed jojoba oil since 1980. Why did we choose Kirk’s farm? His jojoba oil is cold pressed and unrefined. That means that no heat is added for its extraction, which allows it to obtain the highest nutrient content. Additionally, the jojoba oil goes directly from Kirk’s farm to our products, a real “farm to skin” approach!
