If you haven’t jumped on the castor oil bandwagon yet, this is another sign that you should. I folded and was influenced to try this golden elixir, and I have experienced the amazing benefits of castor oil for myself. 

Castor Oil – The Golden Elixir

Castor oil has been used for centuries, but did I listen when I was told to use it by my mom and her friends years ago? No. I had to wait for Tiktok to tell me. As we get older we tend to use the words ‘I should have listened to my mom’ more and more. I now understand why this golden elixir is held in such high regard. If I listened, I may have had the beautiful skin that so many ladies around me have today.

I have been using this oil all over and I am super happy with the results. My face loves that it is incredibly soothing and smoothing. This winter has been brutal on my skin and castor oil has been a very welcome addition to my skin care routine. I have been using it on my body as well, and skin is healthier for it. No cream or body butter gives the hydration power that castor oil does. My skin is smooth and supple all day long.

The Benefits of Castor Oil

First and foremost, castor oil stands as a testament to nature’s healing prowess. Rich in ricinoleic acid, a rare compound renowned for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, castor oil serves as a potent remedy for a myriad of ailments. Applied topically, its therapeutic effects permeate through the body, offering relief from conditions such as arthritis, muscle pain, and inflammation. Moreover, its gentle yet effective nature makes it a preferred choice for soothing skin irritations, acne, and dryness, providing a holistic approach to skincare that nurtures the body.  

Beyond its healing touch, castor oil shines as a guardian of hair and scalp health. Its nourishing properties penetrate deep into the hair follicles, fortifying them from within and promoting robust growth. Regular application of castor oil not only stimulates hair growth but also prevents breakage and split ends. Moreover, its antimicrobial properties combat scalp infections and dandruff, encouraging an environment conducive to healthy hair growth. In a world laden with chemical-laden hair products, castor oil stands as a beacon of purity and efficacy, offering a natural solution to our hair care needs.  

In addition to its therapeutic virtues, castor oil boasts an impressive array of uses in the realm of beauty and skincare. Its emollient properties make it a cherished ingredient in cosmetics, moisturizers, and lip balms, bestowing upon us supple and radiant skin. Whether used as a makeup remover, a facial cleanser, or a nourishing body oil, castor oil transcends conventional beauty standards, unveiling the innate beauty that lies within each of us. Moreover, its ability to stimulate collagen and elastin production renders it a potent anti-aging ally, diminishing fine lines and wrinkles to reveal a youthful complexion. 

This natural oil has been all over social media of late and I was influenced to make the viral skin serum doing the rounds. I used SOil Organic Aromatherapy’s castor oil, jojoba oil and Frankincense. What a treat for the skin and senses.

I used 15ml castor oil, 15ml jojoba oil and 5 drops of Frankincense to create this wildly popular serum. Is it as great as all the Tiktok creators claim it to be? I think so. My skin is prone to congestion though and I found that these ratios are too heavy for everyday use. My face prefers more jojoba oil in the mix. The serum leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated. It works beautifully even when my skin is super sensitive and irritated. It has a wonderfully calming effect.  I can’t comment on the claims that Frankincense has anti-aging properties and that it promotes a more even toned complexion YET, as I’ve only been using it for about a month. My hands love castor oil and this mixture. Castor oil is fantastic, but as it’s thick and sticky, it’s not always convenient to use.  I like to apply the serum during the day, and castor oil just before bed. I wake up with soft, smooth hands. I’m hoping that this serum will help the fade the sun spots that have suddenly appeared on my hands.
