Jojoba beads are biodegradable exfoliating particles made from hydrogenated jojoba oil (a wax ester derived from the jojoba plant). They are a natural, gentle alternative to plastic microbeads, commonly used in facial scrubs, body washes, and cleansers for physical exfoliation. These spherical beads dissolve over time and are eco-friendly, as they biodegrade in water.

Key Benefits

• Gentle Exfoliation: Removes dead skin cells, dirt, and impurities without scratching or irritating the skin.
• Non-Comedogenic: Helps unclog pores and reduce blackheads without blocking them.
• Moisturizing: Contains natural jojoba oil, which mimics skin’s sebum, providing hydration and softening effects.
• Eco-Friendly: Biodegradable and sustainable, unlike synthetic microbeads that harm marine life.
• Versatile: Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, and can be used on face and body.

How It Works

Jojoba beads work through physical exfoliation, where the beads roll over the skin’s surface during cleansing, sloughing off dead cells and debris. Their rounded shape minimizes abrasion, and they gradually break down into jojoba oil, which nourishes the skin. Particle sizes typically range from 200-800 microns for safe, effective exfoliation.
