The perfect remedy for your hair, skin and health. Our grandmothers used castor oil as a medicine for many ailments. Not without reason – this universal home remedy is still present in the composition of many medicines, cosmetics, fabrics, soaps and massage oils.
Castor oil is pressed from the seeds of the castor plant, which is naturally found in India and Africa. It is known all over the world for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. It is one of those natural substances that are universally applicable in the treatment of many diseases, but it is also perfect for body care:
- It will be a great remedy for all skin problems: acne, sunburn, stretch marks, dry skin, warts, boils, fungal infections and chronic itching. Dip a cotton ball in castor oil, apply directly to the problem area, leave on for an hour and then rinse thoroughly. Repeat in the morning and evening for the best effect.
- Use it as a protection and serum for mimic wrinkles. Applied to the skin, it penetrates deep into its surface, while stimulating the production of elastin and collagen. Thanks to this, it softens, moisturizes, smoothes and rejuvenates the skin. With regular use, it will even remove the lines that appear around the eyes. Lubricate the skin with oil every day, before going to bed.
- Method for acne – the ricinoleic acid contained in it fights bacteria that cause acne lesions, penetrating through the individual layers of the skin. Wash your face with warm water to open the pores, then massage the oil in circular motions, leave it overnight, and in the morning rinse it off with cold water.
- Stretch marks – used during and after pregnancy will remove troublesome stretch marks. It should be rubbed regularly into the skin on the abdomen and thighs.
- It will also moisturize your skin that is too dry. The fatty acids contained in castor oil help remove patches of dry skin and restore the proper level of hydration. You only need a small amount of oil: apply a few drops to your face every evening.
- Stimulates hair growth. It is recommended to apply it externally to the scalp to strengthen the hair, preferably with the addition of coconut or almond oil. It works this way because it stimulates blood circulation, and thus its supply to the hair follicles, accelerating their growth.
- It is also a method for beautiful eyebrows. Used daily, it will strengthen eyebrows and eyelashes and protect them from breaking and falling out. Rub castor oil daily before going to bed and you will notice the results quickly.
