Castor Carrier Oil
Since its use in ancient Egypt, Castor oil has been celebrated for its naturally rich and luscious properties for use on the body, skin, and hair. Extracted from the beans of the Castor oil plant, this versatile and viscous carrier oil is a treasure trove of essential fatty acids. Its primary constituent, ricinoleic acid, makes up approximately 75-90% of its composition and is mainly responsible for its relaxing effect on sore muscles.
Ayurvedic medicine, with its origins in India, makes wide use of Castor oil as a natural purgative, remedy for constipation, and skin issues. Small preliminary studies have shown promise for its ability to reduce inflammation and pain, improve liver function, reduce cholesterol levels, and modulate white blood cells in the immune system.
Simple ways to incorporate Edens Garden Castor carrier oil into your daily routine include using Castor oil as a natural moisturizer and treatment for improving the strength of hair and scalp. For an intensive hair treatment, apply Castor oil to your scalp and cover your hair overnight. This will help to protect sheets and clothing from staining. Another option is to dab a small amount of Castor oil on dry skin, age spots, and areas of skin discoloration.
Carrier oils are 4 oz and come with a pump.
