Let’s talk about jojoba!
You’ve probably seen it before—jojoba oil or beauty products with jojoba oil. Or maybe it’s entirely new to you.
Either way, it’s time to dive deep into this amazing natural ingredient because it’s fantastic for shaving—and so much more.
What Exactly Is Jojoba?
Let’s start by explaining what jojoba actually is.
Jojoba is a shrub that grows in arid regions, such as Mexico and the southwestern United States, including Southern California and Arizona.
Pronounced ho-HO-ba, jojoba isn’t technically an oil but a wax-like substance.
This liquid wax, used in beauty products, is extracted from the seeds of the shrub.

The seeds fall naturally when they’re ripe and are then pressed to release the wax.
Native Americans discovered the benefits of jojoba hundreds of years ago.
They would heat the seeds until they softened, then crush them with a mortar and pestle to create a salve.
This salve was used to soften and protect animal hides, treat wounds, and even as a conditioner for skin and hair.
Pregnant women would also eat the seeds, believing they could ease childbirth!
Why Is It So Good?
Today, we’re rediscovering the powerful properties of jojoba oil, which is now widely used in many cosmetic products.
You’ll find it in everything from lip balms and moisturizers to shampoos—and even shaving products like shaving cream.

Of all natural products, jojoba is the closest match to the skin’s own sebum.
Sebum is your skin’s natural barrier, keeping it soft and supple. While too much sebum can lead to breakouts, using jojoba oil helps regulate natural sebum production.
Since jojoba isn’t technically an oil but a wax, it’s fantastic for maintaining healthy skin, hair, and overall care.
This unique, natural product is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and isn’t greasy.
Jojoba is perfect for shaving! It’s naturally rich in vitamins and minerals like Vitamin E, Vitamin B, zinc, and selenium.

This makes unwanted hairs and skin extra soft, allowing for effortless and smooth shaving while reducing the chances of flakiness and irritation.
Thanks to these vitamins and because jojoba is a natural antiseptic, any irritations like nicks and razor bumps heal quickly.
It works as an excellent skin repairer and cell regenerator!
What Else Can You Use Jojoba For?
Jojoba oil is an incredibly versatile product with numerous benefits. That’s why it’s used in so many beauty products—but you can also use it in its pure form for a variety of issues:
- Moisturizer for dry skin
- Lip balm for chapped lips
- Makeup remover
- Remedy for both dry and oily scalps
- To treat blemishes and clogged pores
- To reduce wrinkles and other signs of aging
- For stronger nails
- To soothe sunburned skin
- As a conditioner for hair
- To promote hair growth
- To prevent and reduce stretch marks

You’re fed up. Those annoying red bumps, ingrown hairs, and itching after shaving your bikini line, underarms, and legs. It leaves you feeling frustrated and anything but confident.
No woman should ever feel that way, and neither should you!
First, let me reassure you: there’s nothing wrong with your skin. Your skin is simply doing what it’s designed to do, reacting to the stress of shaving, which leads to unwanted side effects like itching and red bumps.
That’s not the result we women want, so we need to give our skin and nature a little extra help. And that’s exactly what YIONN products are designed to do!

I often used such things but with me it never helped while others were always satisfied with it and I had exactly the same with this product, but had ordered it anyway and it took a little longer with me but it definitely helped!

Get rid of your shaving irritation within 3 weeks: or your money back
That is my promise to you!

From registered nurse to hair removal expert:
I am Wendy, the founder of YIONN.
I know better than anyone what it is like to go through life with shaving discomfort.
After desperately trying every possible way and remedy for red razor bumps and ingrown hairs, I was fed up.
I decided to find a solution to my shaving irritations that worked and it did!
I developed Raka, a caring lotion based on rose water, camphor and willow bark, which, by applying thinly to the problem area, easily and quickly calms the skin after hair removal, prevents red bumps and allows the hairs to grow out – instead of in – again.
And with that, I could finally say goodbye to my insecurities and discomforts.
Hallelujah.
When it later turned out that Raka was not only for me, but also for many other women, I started making several other products around it that can make hair removal a pleasant experience again.
And because I’m so convinced it works and I don’t want to keep your money in the rare case you’re not satisfied with it I came up with the unique YIONN within 30 days money-back guarantee (a guarantee you never normally get on hygiene products).
