Castor oil

AnswerCastor oil is high in ricinoleic acid. This acid is a very effective natural anti-bacterial and anti-fungal agent. Because of its low molecular mass, it has the characteristic that it penetrates the epidermis. In fact, it can also penetrate the stratum corneum, the outer layer of the skin, consisting of dead cells, which protects tissues from infections and dehydration. The main ingredient in Castor Oil (up to 95%), Ricinoleic Acid, has remarkable anti-inflammatory properties while at the same time exhibiting analgesic action.

Castor oil is particularly rich in Omega-9 fatty acids. These acids show remarkable anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties and for this reason, in recent years, Kastor oil has become particularly popular for the treatment of serious skin disorders such as e.g. is acne. At the same time, Castor oil is a first-class moisturizer, as it has the ability to “trap” the moisture of the skin – preventing dehydration and premature aging.

Due to its characteristics, Castor oil is an ideal oil for deep cleansing and skin care. It is particularly suitable for acne and eczema. Its action is particularly effective in deep cleansing of sebum, softening of hard babies and more generally in the treatment of spiders.

It also has great gloss, so it gives a rich shine and shine to the hair.
