Jojoba and Argan Oil: A Liquid Oasis for Your Skin

From the deserts of Arizona and Mexico emerges a golden elixir of nature’s bounty. Jojoba oil, extracted from the seeds of the Simmondsia chinensis shrub, has been revered for centuries for its diverse applications. Information online shows:

 “Native Americans used jojoba oil topically for wound healing, to treat stomach aches and pains, and to treat burns, sores, and wounds. They also believed it had “mystical” properties that could cure skin disorders and help heal scratches, cuts, and bruises.”  

“Jojoba seeds were also ground to make hot beverages, and in emergency situations or during hunts and raids, the Jojoba nut was eaten for survival. Pregnant women believed that consuming the seeds would ease childbirth.”

“In 1943, natural resources of the U.S., including jojoba oil, were used during World War II as additives to motor oil, transmission oil, and differential gear oil. Machine guns were also lubricated and maintained with jojoba oil.”

The Jojoba Journey Begins

Research published on the National Center for Biotechnology Information website says…

It seems like jojoba oil can do almost anything! With its impressive array of benefits, jojoba oil is a must-have in any skincare routine. Let’s see how Potency No. 710 products like Gold Serum, Modern Mist, Higher Good Moisturizer, and Higher Good Natural Fragrance Roll-On embrace jojoba oil and can help you experience the transformative power of this desert-born elixir. You may even discover your skin’s new best friend. Jojoba oil is versatile and highly revered, which is why it’s incorporated into several of the Potency No. 710 products.

When it comes to your skin, jojoba oil is a true hero, offering a treasure trove of benefits that go far beyond simple moisturization. Let’s explore how this incredible oil helps one of the most commonly neglected organs of the body: our skin.

Benefits of Jojoba Oil in Skin Care Products

A Mimic of Nature

Unlike most oils, jojoba oil isn’t actually an oil but a liquid wax with a remarkable similarity to human sebum, the natural oil our skin produces. This biomimetic quality allows jojoba oil to seamlessly integrate with our skin, penetrating deeply into the skin without clogging pores. This makes it suitable for all skin types, even oily and acne-prone ones.

Hydration Hero

Dry, flaky skin? Jojoba oil to the rescue. Its humectant properties draw moisture from the air and trap it within your skin, leaving it plump, supple, and radiant. As an added bonus, jojoba oil absorbs quickly into the skin and doesn’t leave a greasy residue behind.

Acne Ally

Jojoba oil is a prime example of how contrary to popular belief, oils can be your acne-fighting friend. Its anti-inflammatory properties help reduce redness and irritation, while its antimicrobial action combats acne-causing bacteria. Jojoba oil helps regulate sebum production, prevent pores from clogging, and keeps breakouts at bay.

Eczema and Psoriasis Soother

For those suffering from the discomfort of eczema or psoriasis, jojoba oil can be a gentle warrior. Its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties help calm irritation, reduce redness and itching, and promote skin healing. The lack of harsh chemicals makes it a safe and effective option for even the most sensitive skin.

Wrinkle Warrior

Time may leave its mark, but jojoba oil can help soften the blow. Rich in antioxidants like vitamin E, it fights free radicals that damage skin cells and often result in wrinkles. Additionally, jojoba oil promotes collagen production, which helps to keep your complexion firm and youthful.

Sunburn Savior

Sunburns are no match for jojoba oil’s restorative powers. Its anti-inflammatory properties soothe the sting, while its moisturizing abilities promote healing and prevent peeling. Plus, the antioxidants help repair sun-damaged skin cells.

Beyond the Face

Jojoba oil’s benefits extend beyond your face. It can be used as a nourishing lip balm, a strengthening cuticle treatment, and even a natural makeup remover. For dry hands and cracked heels, jojoba oil works wonders, leaving your skin soft and smooth.

Argan Oil

Argan oil is a luxurious plant oil from the kernels of the argan tree, native to Morocco and southwestern Algeria. It’s considered “liquid gold” for its precious properties and boasts a range of benefits and uses. Argan oil packs a powerful punch when it comes to skin benefits, and that’s why you’ll find it in Potency No.710 products like Gold Serum and Higher Good Moisturizer. Here’s a rundown of some of the top skin perks of argan oil.

Hydrating: Dry, flaky skin? Argan oil is your new BFF. Rich in fatty acids and vitamin E, it deeply moisturizes, leaving your skin feeling soft, smooth, and supple.
