This combination of oils has helped my oily/dry sensitive acne prone skin by keeping it moisturized yet has kept it looking oil-free.

Below are some great clippings I've found on Jojoba when researching about these oils:

It is suspected that jojoba oil "tricks" the skin into stopping the production of sebum through somehow mimicking sebum. This also means that jojoba oil will assist in breaking down sebum in plugged-up pores. Sebum and jojoba oil will mix readily without sealing off the skin pores.
Dermatologists have also reported jojoba oil's non-irritating use for acne. Other materials such as mineral oil can cause anaerobic microbial growth and inflammation redness and swelling in and around pores. Jojoba oil will not cause blackheads that contribute to acne.
As a result jojoba oil and sebum will form a non-greasy, non-tacky layer with exceptional trans-epidermal water control. How great, jojoba oil will therefore assist in fighting wrinkles as well as dry, or oily skin.
Professor Zille of Port Elizabeth University carried out further studies on the anti-bacterial effects of jojoba oil and the results were presented at a Coshem Congress held at Mintek. Tests at Michigan University showed that five of the most common skin bacteria plus certain skin fungi couldn't survive in jojoba oil.
Studies on jojoba oil at the University of Michigan supports the conclusion that 5 of the most common bacteria, including staphylococcus aureus and pseudomonas aeruginosus as well as the fungus candida albicans were not capable of growing in jojoba oil.
The medicinal working of jojoba oil was studied at the Pharmaceutical Department at the University of Port Elizabeth and found that jojoba oil destroys the bacteria staphylococcus and pseudomonas within 1 hour and 15 minutes. Studies on jojoba oil at the Ben Gurion University in Israel have shown that jojoba oil relieves the symptoms of psoriases.

It also can be used as makeup remover, hair conditioner, and a body moisturizer!

Vitamin E oil makes my skin look so healthy that it glows.

Tea tree oil is great for acne and amazingly heals skin. Use this sparingly because it is strong! It has a weird minty smell and leaves a cooling effect to the skin. For all the benefits I get from using this, I don't mind the smell too much.

  • Very informative...I would like a complete step by step on how you use these products! When? And how often? And you mix all 3 oils together? At what ratio? Thanks so much...God bless and keep up the good work...

  • @2DELICIOUS4me

    Thank you! I use the mixing bottles with the dropper top for the Jojoba & Vitamin E oil to prevent spills. I have an additional bottle to mix the Jojoba 3/5 and Vitamin E 2/5 ratio. The tea tree oil is very concentrated, so I can't use a dropper because one drop is almost too much for me. What I do is I take the top off and place my palm over the top of the opening and turn it upside down really quickly then place it right side up and close the bottle. That gives me just enough.

  • @2DELICIOUS4me

    With the tea tree oil on my palm (about 1/2 a drop), I add 1-2 drop(s) of the mixed oil. I also created a misting spray. It is purified water (4/5) mixed with Thayers Alcohol-Free Rose Petal Witch Hazel Toner (1/5). I spray this on my face and the oils rub in so much better. For day time I sometimes mix the oils with my moisturizer. At night I use only the oils. Everyone has different skin types so being able to customize the ratios according to what works for me is amazing! =]
