Castor oil delivers proven benefits for skin at every level. You'll often find it in organic moisturizers, where it excels as a deep hydrator, protecting and softening skin for mothers, children, and everyone in between. For tougher issues like eczema, burns, or herpes, it provides reliable relief. Stock it in your natural first-aid kit—insect bites don't stand a chance.
Its superior hydration also makes it an ideal under-eye concealer. Dab one drop beneath each eye and massage in gentle circles for a brightened look.
A time-tested remedy: Mix castor oil with baking soda, apply to unwanted moles, cover with a bandage, and repeat nightly. In just a few days, the mole typically falls off on its own.
Beauty experts have long recommended castor oil for longer, stronger eyelashes—and fuller eyebrows. Achieve that wide-eyed doe look by applying it nightly with a clean mascara wand or brush before bed.
Pro tip: It also boosts hair growth and helps repair damage.
Packed with vitamin E, castor oil tackles soft, brittle nails. Massage a few drops into your nails and cuticles each evening to fortify them and speed up growth.
