Jojoba Butter is obtained by specific cold pressing of select seed kernels of Simmondsia Chinesis (Jojoba). The resultant oil is then blended with hydrogenated vegetable oil to modify the rheology to create a “butter” which is soft and pliable and suitable for a variety of cosmetic applications.

Jojoba oil contains monosaturated long chain C20, C22 fatty acids with a relative high content of eicosenoic acid. In cosmetic preparations, the feel and behavior of Jojoba Butter is somewhat similar to that of shea butter (Butyrospermum parkii), but with increased oxidative stability. Jojoba Butter has a smooth and elegant feel on the skin, with a mild, natural color and odor reminiscent of the starting oil.

This butter exhibits excellent spreadability on the skin, making it ideal as a massage butter or carrier for treatment products. It adds moisturizing attributes to creams and lotions and bar soaps. May be used in cosmetics, toiletries, soaps, massage oils & balms, hair care and sun care preparations. SAP value: 90-105.
