Did you know? Jojoba oil is derived from the seeds of the Simmondsia chinensis bush. Jojoba plants are dioecious, meaning male and female flowers bloom separately. They rely on wind for cross-pollination, as they do not attract bees or other pollinators. Additionally, male and female flowers often mature at different times, reducing the chance of self-pollination and promoting genetic diversity.
Jojoba bushes thrive in arid desert environments, and their seeds contain up to 60% oil. This oil is highly valued in cosmetic, skincare, and hair care products for its distinctive properties.
Suggested Storage: Stored at a temperature <30º in closed containers and protected from direct sunlight.
