Botanical Name: Simmondsia chinensis
Extraction Method: Cold Pressed
Description: Jojoba Golden is a favorite carrier oil. In actuality, it is a liquid
wax. It closely resembles the sebum of the skin, and is rich in vitamin E. This promotes a glowing complexion. The golden
variety of Jojoba may alter color and odours in cosmetics. It is also important to note that Jojoba may go cloudy in cool
temperatures. It will return to its clear state with warming. Purchases of entire drums can also expect some clouding near
the end of the drum. This is natural as Phospholipids (natural components of most vegetable oils) hydrate and precipitate
out of suspension. The sediment is actually extremely high in beneficial vitamin E and will only create problems if the oil
is heated to extreme temperatures where they will darken and precipitate out of suspension. Any sediment can be decanted
out wherever practical.
Color: A Deep, Vibrant Orange
Aromatic Description: Jojoba Golden has a pleasant, soft odour.
Common Uses: Jojoba Golden can be added to other carrier oils in order to extend
shelf lives, and has become a common oil in the aromatherapy industries because of it's excellent skin care properties. The
golden variety of Jojoba is less desired in cosmetic manufacturing; nonetheless, in applications that aren't sensitive to
discoloration or odour, Golden Jojoba is still commonly used. Massage therapists may use small amounts in their carrier oil
blends, but as it will clog pores, its application is limited.
Consistency: Typical and Characteristic of Carrier Oils.
Absorption: Jojoba Golden creates a barrier but will leave a satiny finish
Shelf life: Jojoba Golden has an indefinite shelf life for all intents and
purposes. It may go cloudy in cool conditions but will return to its natural state once warmed.
Cautions: None Known. Product Category:
carrier oils, base oils, vegetable oils, wholesale, natural, bulk

I love that this oil is available certified organically grown, too. The colour is gorgeous, and I do not find that there is sediment. I decant it into glass as soon as I receive it to protect it from leachaete from the plastics.
