EWG HAZARD
Low
Learn about EWG Scores Understanding the EWG rating EWG Skin Deep® uses a 1–10 hazard scale based on known and suspected hazards associated with an ingredient. Lower scores indicate a lower hazard rating: 1–2 Low 3–6 Moderate 7–10 High The rating is a useful reference point, but it is not a complete safety assessment. It does not take into account factors such as concentration, exposure or individual sensitivity. Lupito considers EWG information alongside other relevant research and safety information when selection ingredients for our dog-care formulations.

Carrier Oil, Emollient, Skin Conditioner
WHAT IS IT?
Jojoba Oil is obtained from the seeds of the jojoba shrub. Despite its familiar name, it is technically a liquid plant wax composed primarily of naturally occurring wax esters.
ORIGIN
Plant-derived from the seeds of Simmondsia chinensis, a shrub native to the desert and semi-desert regions of North and Central America.
BENEFITS
Helps soften and condition dry skin; forms a light protective layer; supports moisture retention; improves the balm’s glide and spreadability; and leaves the skin feeling smooth rather than excessively oily.
DID YOU KNOW?
Jojoba Oil is not technically an oil—it is a liquid wax. Its unusual structure gives it excellent stability and allows it to spread smoothly and evenly across the skin.
USED IN
Nose Nurture Balm
