A Staple Product: Castor Oil

So, as an early Christmas present my sister bought me some castor oil! As I mentioned in a previous post, I have many plans for my castor oil. Listed below I have detailed how I have used it so far.

For my skin:
1. I mixed the castor oil with my Curel lotion to give me more moisture to my skin. It worked really well for my horribly dry eczema skin.
2. I use the castor oil as an oil rinse. I mixed it in a 50:50 ratio of EVOO and castor oil.
3. I also use a small drop of the castor oil as a moisturizer for my face.

For my hair:
1. I use the castor oil as a moisturizer for my hair.
2. I have plans to use the 50:50 mixture as an oil rinse.

There are many benefits to castor oil as previously mentioned but, I am finding other great uses for it also!

Wish List: Castor Oil

I have been wanting to implement more oils into my hair regimen and my skin regimen. Currently, my main oil is EVOO0--which is great. However, another great oil that has many benefits is Castor oil.

I used my sister's 50:50 mixture of Castor Oil and EVOO on my hair for my oil rinse and my hair loved it. For this reason, I want to use this particular oil for my oil rinses. Also, I want to use this oil for an oil cleansing for my face.




Here are some of the benefits of Castor Oil:
1. Castor Oil keeps the skin looking unlined and youthful because it penetrates more deeply.
2. Castor Oil thickens eyelashes and eyebrows. Therefore, it should thicken hair once applied.
3. Castor oil keeps hair looking soft and shiny

There are numerous benefits to Castor Oil but, I just named a few interesting ones. It is for these reasons that I need a VAST amount of castor oil in my possession. Most castor oil packages sold in the stores are very small. I am on the hunt for a large amount.
