Mostly when it comes to health and beauty concerns we tend to choose the chemical-laden products or the various unnecessary treatments that don't exactly guarantee relief. But when you go natural, you know of the purity of the ingredients you use or consume and you get assurance of it benefitting you the way you expect it to, based on your unique health and beauty needs.
What is Organic Castor oil?
This oil is extracted from the seeds of the Ricinus communis (castor bean) plant. And this being organic oil means that it is free from any chemical solvent since it is cold pressed. This oil is valuable due to its high content of ricinoleic acid (RA). This is what makes the oil a natural polyol giving it a high shelf life compared to other oils. This oil is pale yellow in color and is found to have a light smell that may seem pungent to some people.
Uses of Castor Oil:
It is used for treating constipation.
It is good for treating acne and acne scars.
Because of its property to reduce inflammation, it can even be used to treat hemorrhoids.
It is known to boost hair growth. It conditions hair providing it smoothness and shine.
It can be used as a part of your skincare routine because it even functions as a good moisturizer.
Because of its above mentioned use it is even used in the making of soaps, lotions and makeup.
It has a thick consistency, so it is mostly used by blending with other oils like coconut oil, olive oil, almond oil and a few others.
It even promotes wound healing by the oil forming a protective layer to help tissue growth and keeping away the impurities from the environment.

Castor oil is an age old beauty treatment that has been largely replaced over time by fancier beauty products with more ingredients and a bigger price tag. Castor oil has natural antibacterial and antifungal properties and is high in Vitamin E, minerals, proteins, and Omega 6 and 9 beneficial fatty acids. Its unusually high ricinoleic acid ratio makes it beneficial to skin and hair. Castor oil can be very beneficial for hair growth if used correctly. Small amounts of plain oil can be used for an all-over treatment. Like many things in life, more is not always better, and only a few drops are needed per treatment. The additional oils are completely optional. I personally use this castor oil 1-2x per week. It can be used more often, though I did not see any increased results with using it daily.
