If You’re Not Using Castor Oil, You’re Missing Out: 7 Things You Need to Know (Page 2 ) | June 20, 2025

4.Treat Acne Castor oil’s ricinoleic acid may help prevent and heal acne. A simple mask involves mixing 2 drops of castor oil with 2 drops of almond oil and 1 drop of camphor oil. Apply this mixture to your face before bed and rinse it off in the morning.

5.Enhance Hair Shine and Growth Many believe castor oil can promote faster and healthier hair growth. Dr. Axe suggests making a hair mask with 1 tablespoon of castor oil, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and the juice of 1/2 lemon. Massage the mixture into your hair, leave it on for 30 minutes, then wash and style as usual.

6.Treat Fungal Infections Due to its antimicrobial properties, castor oil may help with fungal infections. To treat conditions like jock itch, ringworm, or athlete’s foot, Mercola recommends warming the oil and applying it to the affected area before bed. Continue application nightly until the infection is resolved.

7.Reduce Joint Pain Castor oil has anti-inflammatory properties that may help alleviate joint pain. Dr. Axe suggests rubbing castor oil directly onto painful joints and applying a hot pack afterwards. For best results, repeat this process twice a week.

Castor oil offers numerous medicinal benefits, but it’s important to remember that some people may be allergic to it. Always test it on a small area of skin before extensive use. Who knew one simple vegetable oil could be so versatile and effective?
