Great for Hair
I am guilty for having being quite cruel to my once healthy, thick and long manageable hair. Permanent straightening, then curling, then colouring, then blow drying and of course hair iron.None of these anymore.FOR SCALP & HAIR – Anyways, I recently started researching for recipe’s for homemade hair masks to heal, lengthen and strengthen my hair. Majority of the recipe’s had Castor oil in it and also as a kid my mother would apply castor oil to my eyebrows, to help thicken them. That got me to think and also to invest in this product along with NOW Sweet Almond oil. Just 2 weeks of using this product I felt my hair strands more thicker and noticeably less brittle. I apply a mixture of (NOW castor oil, NOW Almond Oil and Parachute Coconut Oil) twice a week and keep it overnight. I make the homemade mask with (Avocado, Eggs, Banana, Raw honey, NOW castor oil, NOW Almond Oil and Olive oil) every weekend and leave it on for 2 hours and shampoo and condition normal with COLD preferably or luke warm water. Hot water will cook the egg in your hair and I’d much prefer having scrambled eggs in my tummy than on my hair…lol! After every wash I re-apply (a drop of each-Castor, almond, coconut) just to my roots and ends when my hair is very wet, they work great as a leave-in conditioner and my hair doesn’t feel greasy after they air dry. Instead they are nice bouncy and shinyIts been a month since I have started the above routine and I am so glad to have found these 2 products that I am hooked for good. I prefer to mix castor oil with Almond because its consistency is quite thick and Almond helps to smooth the application as well as moisturize, whereas castor gets the circulation going.DURING AND AFTER SHAVE – I also add the NOW sweet Almond Oil to my shaving cream or gel to smoothen the shaving process on my legs etc. Apply it after shave as well to avoid dry, itchy skin.EYEBROWS – I have recently tried using mixture of (castor oil and almond oil) on my eyebrows and eyelashes (be careful – avoid your tear ducts area and don’t let it go into your eyes). Don’t know whether its working on my eyelashes or not cos I am not keeping tabs but definitely noticed new hair growth on my eye brows. I do this before I go to bed. In the morning I take Almond oil on a round cotton ball and swipe over my eye-lids (just like when you attempt to remove eye-makeup) Just to give it a thorough swipe cos of the thickness castor oil contains and then wash your face normally. I suffer from mild to average acne and I feared of breakouts but to my surprise this routine after I washed it off gave a lovely glow around my eyes and forehead. Maybe I’ll try just almond oil on face next time when I make my face pack.I am very happy with NOW products, received them in timely manner, in good condition and above all they are so ridiculously CHEAP. I have vowed NOT to buy expensive shampoos or conditioners or soap cos my hair, my scalp and skin are already getting all the nourishment it requires from the above routine’s so why spend any more.PLEASE NOTE – Whenever trying anything new preferably do a small test to see if it suits you. Cos what works for one person may not work for everybody.

A Must-Have Multi-Purpose Skin Care Essential!
I recently started using 100% Pure Castor Oil, and it has quickly become a staple in my skincare routine. This versatile oil is truly a gem for anyone looking to enhance their skin care regimen with a natural and effective product.The purity of this castor oil is immediately noticeable. It’s thick and rich, yet it absorbs well into the skin without leaving a greasy residue. I’ve found it incredibly effective as a skin softener. Just a few drops applied to dry areas—like elbows, knees, and cuticles—provide intense moisture and nourishment. My skin feels noticeably softer and smoother after each use.

Perfect oil
I use this hexane free castor oil for my hair, face, body, and after waxing my legs or armpits. It’s a thick oil and a little goes a long way. Mixing it in your hands with shea butter is the best combo for soft skin that you’ll ever use. When I put it in my hair I use less than a dime sized amount for fly away control and it works amazing. You just have to be careful to not use too much or it’ll look oily in your hair. I like to use this on my skin at night so it has the time to soak in. It does oil stain clothes if you use too much so be careful. It also is not scent free like some say, it does have an earthy smell to it. You get used to it but there is definitely a smell that I don’t particularly love. If I use this in the day before I go out I’ll just spray perfume or essential oil on to mask the earth tone of this oil.Overall I love this, my skin loves it and this product is a great quality product for the price. Love it!-wife of matt
