Can someone post a link to the first thread where jojoba oil was mentioned? So curious.
Thanks

FranticFrummie has mentioned it on various threads over the years. It’s the subtle brainwashing Wink

It’s better than the LD attempted brainwashing threads. LOL

Does it give you a shiny complexion ? What else besides for facial moisturizer is this product good for?

Frantic Frummie, where can you buy it here in Israel?

I buy it by the liter down near Susya. Someone produces it locally, so every little shop carries it.

No. More soft. It also keeps my skin from producing excess oil from the sun, so my skin stays fresh and protected throughout the day

Hair. I don't condition anymore - just jojoba. It comes out very shiny.

Just received my bottle. It says to apply a few drops to a cotton ball. Can someone tell me approximately how many drops for my face?

First time using it and just put it on. Do I need to wait till it dries and then wash my face or do I just leave it to do its thing?

Anyone else find they are breaking out from the oil? I started a week ago and besides the first couple of glowy days, I’m finding my skin to be worse now.

Yes my skin is worse too. I am a couple of weeks after birth, so I wasn't sure if it was hormonal or from the oil. But I did stop using it for now till it clears up. Will hopefully try again in a few weeks.
Also, it did make my skin shine, as in it didn't really absorb fully. Sad

I was so excited too...

Are you rubbing it in or just applying it on your face? I put some on my fingertips and massage it in really well for about 30 seconds, and it gets absorbed. No shiny face. (If I would just leave it on without rubbing in it would be all shiny)

I started using a week ago twice a day and see a huge difference. I use just a few drops and rub it in fully.
I have easy skin so maybe that is working for me.
Thanks for recommending it.

I didn't realize it has to be rubbed in that long. Next time I try it I will do that.
Thanks

It's not for me either. Seems it's best for people with dry skin. Those who are prone to breakouts usually already have dewy skin and don't need this - plus it seems to sprout whatever is under the skin.
I used it once. If anyone in Brooklyn wants a new bottle, let me know!

Can this be used in place of eye cream as well?

By the way, can someone recommend a good product to smooth and soften soles of feet? (I already tried Kerasol.)

Amlactin foot cream. I buff my callouses first, then cream and socks before bed.

I bought it today. I live in Israel and bought it from the health food section of shufersol (some shufersol's do not have a health food section) for 51₪.

That's a great price. My local health food store had one for 140 shek.
I left it there. Will try to find a cheaper option.

Bought it in Superpharm for 52.
I think that's the normal price for 100 ml:

Anyone else allergic to it? I put in on my face and could not stop itching. Which is a pity because it felt nice!
