JOJOBA OIL
A wonderful addition to any blend. Jojoba oil is actually a liquid wax, and is rich in vitamin E.
Jojoba is the best carrier to use for a facial oil, and the best oil for use in perfumery. Similar
in composition to the skin's own oils, it is quickly absorbed. Jojoba is excellent for dry and mature skin,
inflamed conditions, and helps to control acne, oily skin and oily scalp. The oil is an antioxidant, and
has a long shelf life. Will go cloudy or even solidify in cold temperatures, but will return to its natural
state again at room temperature.

FRACTIONATED COCONUT OIL
This oil is obtained by extraction from the white flesh of the coconut. It makes the skin smooth and
satin-like. It is a wonderful emollient for the skin, and is also used as a hair pomade. Many hair
conditioners contain coconut oil because it is beneficial to dry hair. Fractionated coconut oil has a light
texture, is odourless, non-staining, easily absorbed and has a long shelf life.
