Jojoba Esters are a complete range of oil-free wax esters that are derived from seeds of the jojoba plant. They are natural, green, and sustainable, made from jojoba oil and/or hydrogenated jojoba oil via interesterfication. They are available in a wide variety of forms with 5 different melting point ranges – a liquid, a creamy, soft or firm paste; or a hard wax. They are highly stable, having superior oxidative stability compared to triglycerides and other natural butters. They are ideal for use in a broad range of personal care applications, including products requiring “oil free” label claims.
They are multi-functional, delivering hydration and an elegant skin feel as well as improving the performance and functionality of cosmetic products. Unlike triglyceride oils, they provide non-greasy emolliency and are readily absorbed into the skin.
