Jojoba Oil for Acne
Acne is the enemy of beautiful skin, and everyone has probably experienced it at least once
during adolescence . However, these days acne is no longer just a skin problem for adolescents .
In recent years, the number of women suffering from “adult acne” that develops in their 30s and 40s
has been increasing.
Jojoba oil
has been gaining attention as an effective treatment for modern women who suffer from acne .
What exactly is jojoba oil and
how does it help with acne?
In this article , we will introduce why jojoba oil is
effective against acne and 5 skin care tips.
Jojoba oil is the godsend for acne!
Here’s why and 5 effective skin care tips
Reason 1: What is jojoba oil?
A versatile beauty oil suitable for all skin types
Jojoba oil is a natural plant oil that is extracted from the seeds of the Simmondsia chinensis plant, which is mainly found in
California,
Arizona and
Mexico .
It is not a chemically produced oil, but
is naturally derived, so
it contains many beauty ingredients and is said to be safe
for people with sensitive skin .
The main components of jojoba oil are
wax esters and fatty acids such as palmitic
acid,
palmitoleic acid
, and oleic acid .
These ingredients are similar to those in human sebum,
making this a beauty oil that can be used safely by people with any skin type.
One effective way to deal with acne
is to remove excess sebum with oil.
Just as oil from foundation and other products is removed by the oil in cleansing oil
, oil from human skin is also removed by oil.
Jojoba oil is effective for removing excess sebum from acne because it
contains many beauty ingredients and can be used
on sensitive, inflamed skin .
<Beauty ingredients of jojoba oil>
Vitamin A
(prevents dryness)
○ Vitamin D
(promotes sebum regeneration)
Vitamin E
(promotes blood flow)
Jojoba oil is
an oil that is similar to the skin’s components, and is not only a stress-free oil
for inflamed, sensitive,
acne-prone skin , but also a wonderful all-purpose beauty oil that contains beauty ingredients.
Reason 2: Excellent moisturizing power prevents acne-prone skin
Dryness is
one of the major causes of acne that modern women suffer from .
When the skin becomes dry,
it naturally
produces excess sebum to prevent it from becoming dry.
This excess
sebum secretion
can cause acne when it accumulates and clogs pores.
To prevent acne,
you need to first moisturize your dry skin.
Jojoba oil
contains a unique compound called wax esters,
which have high moisturizing properties and help prevent dry skin.
Jojoba oil is effective against modern acne because it not only removes sebum but
also moisturizes the skin
, suppressing excess sebum production .
<Moisturizing effect of wax ester>
○ Moisturizing effect protects rough skin
○ Barrier function against external stimuli
Prevents loss of fluids in the body
The high moisturizing effect of wax esters, the main component of jojoba oil,
can prevent dryness from both the inside and outside, protecting the skin from the dryness
that causes acne that modern women suffer from .
Reason 3: The antioxidant effect of Vitamin E
makes this acne-fighting oil safe to use
Jojoba oil is
a powerful antioxidant
Vitamin E
·mineral
It has a high content of vitamin C,
which means it is less likely to spoil.
Oxidized oil is like rusty oil and
is not good for eating or applying to the skin.
In that respect, jojoba oil has a high antioxidant effect,
and not only does it not oxidize, but it also keeps
the beauty ingredients in the oil active, so it is an oil that can be used safely even after a long time.
<The wonderful antioxidant effects of jojoba oil>
○ Improves wrinkles and sagging skin
○ Improvement of pigmentation caused by acne
○ Improves spots and dullness
○ Promotes the growth of skin cells
Jojoba oil, which has strong antioxidant properties, can be used
not only to combat modern acne, but also as an
anti-aging skin care item.
Reason 4:
Jojoba oil’s antibacterial properties
fight acne bacteria
Jojoba oil contains a substance called
triclosan
, which is said to have a strong antibacterial effect.
Therefore,
it has the following beneficial effects on acne-prone skin:
○ Repels acne bacteria
○ Prevents odor caused by oxidation of sebum due to excessive sebum secretion
Not only does it protect the skin from acne-causing bacteria, but in Europe and the United States it is also used as a deodorant
because it kills the bacteria that cause body odor .
Reason 5:
