Normally it's a bad idea to play tricks, they almost always backfire. However, when it comes to your skin, there's one effective trick that can keep your skin acne-free and soft the natural way. Jojoba oil is a natural oil extracted from the crushed seeds of a Southwestern desert tree. Jojoba oil is actually not even an oil, but a wax ester which is one of the reason it won't make oily skin even more oily. The way it 'tricks' your skin into fighting acne is it so closely resembles your skin's sebum, that your skin stops overproducing it, thinking it has enough already. Jojoba oil is also non-comedogenic so you can use it without fear of breakouts.

What else is jojoba oil good for?
Moisturizing your skin
- Jojoba oil can make your skin super-soft and smooth and reduce
flakiness or itching. It's a great way to treat the symptoms of eczema
or psoriasis.
Makeup remover - Jojoba oil can remove
even the thickest, toughest makeup. Waterproof mascara? No problem! Just
apply some jojoba oil to a cotton ball or damp washcloth and you'll be
makeup free in seconds. It also conditions your eyelashes and skin at
the same time!
Massage oil - This oil heats quickly in your palms and gives a soothing, moisturizing massage that will deeply condition the skin.
Lip Conditioner - Apply jojoba oil as a lip balm for soft, smooth lips.
