In an amber glass bottle rests a pale, honey-thick oil with a quiet, near-neutral scent — a gentle, natural foundation for self-care rituals, from aromatherapy blends to daily skin and hair nourishment. 🌿
Cold-pressed from Ricinus communis seeds and 100% pure, this castor base oil offers a slow, cushiony glide. It absorbs gradually, creating a soft, protective sheen that helps seal in moisture on dry areas. As a carrier, it supports essential oil blends beautifully; for massage, it brings a steady, comforting slip; for haircare, it’s often chosen as a pre-shampoo conditioning step or for smoothing the ends.
Sourced from India, where castor cultivation is longstanding, it carries a quiet lineage of use noted across many traditions, including references in Egyptian antiquity — shared here with respect and without promise. 🌾
Blend: For everyday use, mix castor with a lighter oil (e.g., 1 part castor to 1–2 parts jojoba or sweet almond). If using essential oils, keep to appropriate dilutions.
Skin: Warm a few drops between your palms and press onto slightly damp skin to lock in moisture.
Hair: Smooth a small amount through lengths or use as a short pre-wash scalp massage, then cleanse thoroughly.
Store cool and away from light; best used within 12 months of opening. A thoughtful gift for blend-lovers and anyone who appreciates simple, time-honoured care. ✨
