Benefits

Cold Pressed Castor Oil for Hair Growth

Cold-pressed Castor Oil deeply nourishes the scalp and conditions hair from root to tip. Rich in ricinoleic acid, it helps support the look of healthy, well-conditioned hair while soothing a dry scalp and reducing the appearance of flakes. Regular application helps leave hair looking thicker, fuller, and shinier, and reduces breakage, supporting long, strong, and lustrous-looking hair.

Castor Oil for Skin Hydration

Rich in essential fatty acids, Castor Oil provides deep, lasting moisture to dry or flaky skin. Its emollient properties help lock in hydration and support the skin's natural moisture barrier. Applying a small amount daily helps leave skin feeling soft, supple and looking radiant, making Cold Pressed Castor Oil an effective natural skin moisturiser.

Castor Oil for Lashes and Brows

Cold-pressed Castor Oil conditions lashes and brows with nourishing vitamins and omega-9 fatty acids. Coating each strand, it helps lashes and brows look fuller, darker and healthier over time. Applying a thin layer nightly conditions and softens, helping to enhance the appearance of volume, a gentle, natural alternative to conditioning them with chemical serums.

Castor Oil for Face and Wrinkles

With its antioxidant content, Castor Oil helps skin look smoother and more supple. It penetrates deeply to soften and hydrate, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines. Cold-pressed Castor Oil also helps improve the look of blemishes and uneven skin tone, leaving the face looking rejuvenated, glowing and refreshed with consistent, gentle use.

Castor Oil for Belly Button Therapy

Applying Cold Pressed Castor Oil to the navel, known in Ayurveda as Nabhi or navel oiling, is a traditional self-care ritual practised for centuries. Massaging a few drops into and around the belly button nourishes the skin, helps relieve dryness, and forms part of a calming, grounding wellness routine. A simple, time-honoured ritual to bookend your day with a moment of stillness.

Castor Oil for Nails and Cuticles

Cold-pressed Castor Oil helps strengthen the look of brittle nails and softens dry cuticles with its rich blend of natural fatty acids. Massaging a few drops daily improves the appearance of nail flexibility, helps guard against breakage, and gives a healthy-looking shine, helping to keep nails and cuticles looking conditioned, tidy and well cared for.

Castor Oil for Constipation Relief

Castor Oil holds an ancient and honoured place in Ayurvedic tradition, where it has long been valued as part of practices supporting digestive balance and internal wellbeing. Prized for its purity, cold-pressed Castor Oil reflects this heritage of natural, holistic care. As traditional internal-wellness practices aren't suitable for everyone, we recommend speaking with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner or healthcare professional before use.

Castor Oil for Scalp and Dandruff

Cold pressed Castor Oil helps soothe a dry, irritated scalp and restore its moisture balance. Its conditioning properties help reduce the appearance of flakes and calm the feeling of itchiness, while nourishing the hair at the roots. Regular scalp massages help improve the look and feel of the scalp, leaving it feeling clean, refreshed and deeply conditioned.

If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or unwell

FAQ

What is cold pressed castor oil, and is it better than regular castor oil?

Cold pressed castor oil is extracted from the seed with no heat or chemicals, so it keeps more of its ricinoleic acid and fatty acids. Ours is cold pressed and hexane free, a pure oil for your hair, skin, lashes and brows.

Is castor oil good for hair growth?

Castor oil is a brilliant conditioning oil for your hair. Rich in ricinoleic acid, it nourishes the scalp and helps hair look thicker, fuller and shinier while reducing breakage. It conditions and improves the look of your hair rather than forcing new growth, so use it once or twice a week and stay consistent.

How long does castor oil take to work on hair and lashes?

Most people see a difference in six to eight weeks of regular use. It works gradually, so use it a few times a week on hair, or nightly on lashes and brows, and stay consistent.

Can I use castor oil on my face?

Yes. Castor oil deeply moisturises dry, tight skin and helps it look smoother and more supple. Patch test first, then use a drop or two, as a little goes a long way.

How do you use castor oil on eyelashes and eyebrows?

Sweep a thin layer over lashes and brows with a clean mascara wand before bed and leave overnight. Used nightly, it conditions each hair so lashes and brows look fuller and healthier. Keep it out of your eyes.

Is castor oil good for dry skin?

Yes. Castor oil is a rich natural moisturiser, packed with fatty acids that lock in moisture and leave dry skin, rough patches and cuticles softer. Apply to clean, damp skin.

Does castor oil help with dandruff and a dry, itchy scalp?

Yes. Castor oil soothes a dry, flaky, itchy scalp, softens flakes and moisturises your scalp and roots. Massage in, leave 30 minutes or overnight, then shampoo out.

Is castor oil safe to drink for constipation?

Only food grade, edible castor oil, and only under professional guidance. It's a stimulant laxative, isn't suitable for everyone and should be avoided in pregnancy. Speak to your doctor first.
