Organic Jojoba Oil Profile
Botanical Name- Simmondsia chinensis
Origin- Israel
Extraction- Cold pressed/Unrefined
Shelf life- 2 years recommended
Kosher Certified- No
Notes- Jojoba oil may become cloudy and solidify as the temperature drops. This is a normal process that occurs from the hardening of the fats and waxes, and it will become stable at or around room temperature. Because Jojoba is not an oil but rather a wax, its shelf life and stability is considerably higher then most oils and rancidity is very rarely a concern. Deep gold in color and with a mild odor. For cosmetic use only.
