Specifications and Typical Properties of
Natural Jojoba Seed Powder
Natural jojoba seed powder is a 100% natural product derived from the seeds of the desert shrub Simmondsia Chinensis which is commonly known as jojoba. The jojoba plant is indigenous to the arid Sonoran region of Northwestern Mexico and the Southwestern United States.
Natural jojoba seed powder (also known as jojoba meal) is produced by mechanical cold pressing of the jojoba seed followed by milling and screening.
Natural jojoba seed powder is used in a number of cosmetic applications such as facial scrubs, body exfoliants, and foot scrubs. The jojoba fiber effectively and gently exfoliates while the natural residual jojoba oil in the fiber leaves the skin soft and feeling smooth.
