What Is Jojoba Butter?
Jojoba Butter is created by hydrogenating jojoba oil, transforming the liquid wax into a solid, butter-like consistency. This process increases the ingredient's occlusive properties while maintaining its excellent skin compatibility.
The resulting butter provides rich, long-lasting moisture and creates a protective barrier on the skin. Its composition remains similar to natural skin sebum, ensuring excellent absorption without clogging pores.
