Desert Essence 100% Pure Jojoba Oil - Moisturizes Skin & Nourishes Hair, 4 fl oz

If your a man with thick coarse facial hair, razor burn/ingrown neck hair issues, and have to shave every day because of your job than you NEED to try this oil. I have been searching for something to stop ingrown hairs on my neck for years now and I finally found jojoba oil. This stuff is like magic! My method for shaving is now as follows, everyone is different but I would try this if you've had issues as long as I did.First off get a small shower mirror and shave in the shower. Also get a DE safety razor with Feather blades and A good shaving lather and badger brush. Recommend Pacific Shaving companies all natural shaving cream.Step 1. At the end of your HOT shower run hot water on your face for a good minute while using a toothbrush to brush the hairs in the opposite direction of growth.Step 2. Apply a nice amount of this magical JoJoba oil.Step 3. Lather up your shaving cream over the oil on your face with the brush until it is nice and thick.Step 4. Shave over every area of your face in short very gentle strokes almost applying no pressure at all. Only pass over each area once to get the cream off.Step 5. Repeat step 2-4 if you have to. Do not repeat step 2-4 more than once! No need to pass over your face more than twice with the blade. This will reduce the chance of getting ingrown hairs and razor burn.Step 6. Rinse off your face COMPLETELY with cool water.Step 7. Last but not least. Pat your face dry and apply another layer of the magical JoJoba oil. It will keep your face moisturized and clean for the whole day.Tips:Only shave over your razor burn/ingrown hair prone areas once which should be easy considering how close the jojoba will get your shave on its first pass.DO NOT CLEANSE YOUR FACE WITH FACE WASH BEFORE or AFTER SHAVING. This will keep the natural oils on your face and the magical jojoba. If you have acne and need to use face wash than use those products at night or the opposite time of day that you shave. I recommend trying to ditch the face wash for a week or 2 first and see how it goes.Do not touch your face during the day and wash your hands frequently to keep them clean, just in case you do accidentally touch your face. Also make sure you wash or use hand sanitizer after you blow your nose! The bacteria in your mouth and nose will cause problems on your face.Use only products with natural ingredients on your face.Shave in the direction of hair growth and never against the grain.I know this was long and thorough but I swear I have finally found the solution to ingrown hairs and razor burn with this Jojoba Oil!

I've struggled with acne since around 7th-8th grade. My acne isn't that bad... I'd say it's mild to medium acne. I'm Chinese and have combination skin - oily in t-zone and just normal in the cheeks. I do tend to get dry around my nose and the corners of my mouth after I wash my face though! This oil has been a miracle worker - it moisturized my face without leaving a greasy residue... trust me when I saw it's absorbed fast! For my whole face I usually need around maybe a dime sized amount? Sometimes more if I want extra moisture. It kinda smells like sesame oil, not as strong though and it goes away around 5-10 minutes after you rub it in. I don't notice a scent except when I first put it on and if it irks you that much you can just add a couple drops of lavender or whatever essential oil you like.This has not only moisturized my skin but has improved the quality of it as well! My skin feels softer and is more radiant. I also stopped picking at my pimples, so that also reduced the pimples on my skin. I still break out sometimes.. and even then it's only one or two, not like 3-4 in the same area like it'd be before! Jojoba oil will prep your face as well... I put my mineral powder foundation and blush on right after this, great! It's been about a month and a half and I've only used like 1/10th of the bottle--it'll last you a LONG time! It's really worth the buy! I put on my acne moisturizer first, then rub on the jojoba oil gently! Some people just use jojoba oil but I need something underneath, just my routine! (Also, give it some time.. I saw results within a week, but some say sooner and some say later, be patient! If you keep on switching around between products it'll make your skin crazy and more prone to breakouts. I cannot stress this enough: stop picking your pimples!! It stretches the pores and makes it scar way easier.)All in all, it's a great buy and you won't regret it -- give it a try!
