INCI Name

Refined. Used for skin care and as a home remedy. A stable oil which does not easily go rancid. Keeps for 3-4 years. 

Skin Care

This is a viscous oil with a high fat content, which is absorbed by the skin very slowly. Good for e.g. lip balms, cleansing and exfoliating products and massage oils. Castor oil is used in massage oil blends for whole body massage because the skin very slowly absorbs it. However, because it is short, sticky and resistant, you should use only a small percentage in your massage blends.

As it draws dirt to itself, making it excellent in any cleansing products.
Also makes lips, hair and skin shiny so add to lip balms, hair packs and face and body oils.

Home Remedy

Used mainly as a laxative in dosage of 15-20ml. We recommend chilling it in the fridge and mixing it with cold orange juice to make it more palatable.

Cooking

In China it is used for cooking and dressings.
