3. Clean face
Castor oil contains antimicrobial properties which may help prevent acne. It also is thick enough it won’t clog the pores and create blackheads. SC has several recipes for facial cleanser. For oily skin, you want to mix 1 part castor oil with 3 parts of safflower oil or primrose oil. For combination skin, mix 1 part castor oil with 4 parts Argan oil. For dry skin, mix 1 part castor oil with 10 parts Camellia oil.
4. Treat acne
This thick oil contains ricinoleic acid which can help keep acne from forming and help heal acne that is already in place. Good Health Academy makes a castor oil mask by mixing 2 drops of castor oil, 2 drops of almond oil and 1 drop of camphor oil. Apply this to your face at night before bed and sleep with it on. Clean it off in the morning before applying your makeup.
5. Add shine and growth to hair
Some believe that castor oil will cause the hair to grow faster and healthier. Dr. Axe recommends making a hair mask from 1 tablespoon castor oil, 1 tablespoon olive oil and juice from 1/2 lemon. Massage this through the hair to the tips and letting it sit for 30 minutes before washing and styling your hair.
