Product Description
Castor oil is a thick, odorless oil obtained from the seeds of the Ricinus communis plant. Its use dates back to Ancient Egypt, where it was initially used as lamp fuel and later for medicinal and beauty purposes. It is believed that Cleopatra used castor oil to enhance the brightness of the whites of her eyes. Today, the majority of the world’s castor oil is produced in India and is widely used in modern skincare and haircare formulations.
Pure castor oil is now available to you with Gland quality and assurance, responsibly sourced from India. It can be applied directly to the skin or incorporated into your hair and skincare routines.
Castor oil helps increase blood circulation to the scalp, which may promote healthier hair and support new hair growth. Scientific studies suggest that applying castor oil as little as once a month may increase hair growth up to five times the normal rate. It can also help moisturize a dry, irritated scalp. Thanks to its antibacterial and antifungal properties, castor oil may help reduce dandruff. As it may stimulate hair growth in other areas of the body such as eyebrows and eyelashes, it should be used carefully in these regions.
