Uses
In soap, Castor oil adds an amazing rich, bubbly lather in low percentages (5–20%). In lip products like glosses or lipsticks, it adds a bit of a glossy sheen. In cleansers it helps amp up the cleansing power and pull gunk out of your pores. Applied neat (or close to it), it helps boost hair growth over time. In the Oil Cleansing Method it is the primary cleansing oil—it’s so potent that using more than 20% can be very drying!
