CASTOR OIL

Fortifying, revitalizing and growth booster

Castor oil is one of the essential oils in cosmetics as its virtues and benefits are numerous!

An exceptional fortifying and growth booster oil

Castor oil is a powerful ally for hair care. Thanks to its richness in ricinoleic acid, it has significant fortifying properties! Thus, it strengthens hair while promoting its growth. Its restorative action also helps fight breakage and split ends. Used regularly as an oil bath or scalp massage, it is a real hair growth booster treatment.

Men will also appreciate its benefits for beard care. Nourishing and strengthening, it softens and tames hair for a well-groomed beard. Especially since, with regular application, castor oil will help promote the growth of existing hair.

Known to protect and revitalize

Castor oil has a differentiating characteristic compared to other vegetable oils: its texture, thick and viscous, with a high density. This particularity gives it its protective power, valid for both hair, eyelashes but also for the skin. A protection that, for example, dry, damaged and brittle hair really needs!

Eyelashes and nails are not left out with this fortifying oil, in fact, eyelashes and nails are made, just like hair, of keratin. Thus, castor oil, just like on hair, acts as a fortifier while promoting the growth of existing eyelashes and nails. Perfect for a flawless look and manicure! 

A must-have for the skin too

Beyond its benefits for hair, castor oil is also an excellent skin care product. Thanks to its moisturizing and regenerating properties, it nourishes and protects the skin against dryness and external aggressions, leaving it soft. It is particularly appreciated by dry skin, which it nourishes, softens, and protects thanks to its rich fatty acid content. Due to its texture and properties, it is ideal for application in the evening before bed on the driest areas such as heels, elbows, or hands.

The botanical minute

Castor oil is obtained from the common castor oil plant (Ricinus communis), a plant that grows primarily in India and tropical Africa. This shrub, which can reach up to 12 meters in height, is distinguished by its large, deep green palmate leaves and its yellow-green and red flowers. Its fruits are covered in spiny capsules and contain seeds. These seeds are used to obtain the oil. With rapid growth of up to 1.8 meters per year, this plant is a true gift from nature with multiple benefits.
