Jojoba Showdown: Pure Oil vs Carrier – Surprising Hair Skin Use Cases! We’ve long been fans of the Nourishing Cold Pressed Jojoba Oil for its versatility, but when we stumbled upon its carrier oil variant, we were intrigued. Conventional wisdom suggests purity is key, but our tests revealed surprising benefits for both pure and carrier versions. On hair, pure jojoba mimics natural sebum, locking in moisture without greasiness, while its carrier cousin shines in essential oil blends, enhancing penetration. For skin, we found our pure version to be a potent occlusive moisturizer, sealing hydration into dry patches, whereas the carrier oil’s emollient properties smoothed rough textures effortlessly. Whether used alone or mixed, jojoba’s dual nature surprised us. Worth noting, both variants deliver on their promise of promoting lustrous locks, supple skin, and strong nails, proving jojoba’s true magic lies in its adaptability.
