No longer using jojoba oil

Okay, I started using jojoba oil for about a few months now. I get painful pimples around my lobes and face lately. I think I'm reacting to the oil. Is there an oil anybody can recommend to use that's less likely to cause breakouts? Thanks :)

There are a couple of different oils that I've seen people use. For you I would recommend Emu Oil because you may be having an allergic reaction to the jojoba. A lot of blended oils have jojoba in them so be careful to look at the ingredients.

I've also heard vitamin E oil is good.

Hi,

I use unrefined organic Shea butter. I'm sensitive to a lot of things and this is the only one that I can use without getting sore lobes etc.
Nice and cheap but good for stretching :D you could also try Organic Coconut oil I've that is also very good too.
