Moisturizing and Soothing

When combined, they can help to hydrate dry skin, scalp, and hair.

The product contains no fillers, preservatives, additives, or artificial colors. It is also not tested on animals. NOW® Solutions products are analytically tested to ensure the highest quality.

Another study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology showed that jojoba oil can help reduce skin inflammation.

Usage and Precautions

To soften the product, scoop out and rub vigorously between clean hands until the desired consistency is achieved. As a daily moisturizer, it can be applied to the skin as needed.

The product is naturally hard and color/texture may vary depending on temperature. At high temperatures, the product will melt and become solid again when cooled. This is natural and can affect the appearance but does not affect the quality of the product. If it is hard, it can be softened by placing it in a bowl of warm water for 30 minutes or by heating it in the microwave for a few seconds. If there is a separation of liquid and solid substance, melt and then cool to restore normal consistency.

Warning when microwaving: The jar's lid has a foil seal. Do not place the jar directly in the microwave. Before heating, scoop out the desired amount and place it in a microwave-safe container. Allow to cool before applying.

Please note that this product is not intended for internal use.
