Rockstar Beauty Tip #5 - Jojoba

A friend turned me on to this stuff, it's pretty amazing, AND amazingly affordable.  Jojoba oil is apparently a natural oil that your skin and hair can absorb quickly and lock moisure in.  I don't know about you, but it is frustrating to slather on layers of lotion only to find your skin to be dry again a few hours later.  Especially in the winter...UGH!  My skin gets VERY dry when the air turns cold...so dry it becomes itchy and miserable!  I have never found a cure, until this year...

JOJOBA!

I keep it in the shower and before I get out I rub a small amount onto my legs, back, arms and stomach.  It seems really greasy at first, but my skin absorbs it quickly and by the time I dry off, I can't even tell I put it on.  It completely stopped the itching...give it a try!  Also great for your hair if you put a few drops into your conditioner!

Other uses...I have heard it is great in the treatment of wrinkles and ACNE.  Wow!  Mother Nature ROCKS!  Give it a shot ladies, what have you got to lose?

I don't remember what I paid for my little bottle, but I'm sure it wasn't much...maybe $8 or so.  Take a look for it in your natural food markets.
