Pure Castor Oil

CAD $24.00

Pressed from the seeds of the castor bean plant (Ricinus communis), castor oil has been revered for centuries as one of nature’s most potent healing oils.

Thick, rich, and deeply emollient, it has long been used in both European and folk apothecary traditions to soften skin, condition hair, and ease dryness. Its slow-absorbing nature allows it to create a protective barrier, sealing in moisture while nourishing the tissues beneath.

Traditionally applied to brows and lashes for growth, massaged into the scalp for strong, healthy hair, or smoothed over dry skin, castor oil is also valued in herbal practice for its ability to draw out stagnation and support the body’s natural detoxification when used as a warm compress. In German and Pennsylvania Dutch folk healing, castor packs were often placed over the abdomen to soothe discomfort and encourage balance.

Pure, cold-pressed, and unrefined, this castor oil is a true apothecary staple. Heavy yet gentle, it carries a glossy sheen and an almost honey-like thickness, making it one of the most versatile oils for both beauty and wellness rituals.
