 quality multi-purpose product
By Catherine
This review is from: Heritage Products Castor Oil
When I first purchased this product I bought it in an 8oz. size and it lasted about 3-4 months with me using it for many purposes, so I decided to step up to the 32oz because of the value and utility I get from this product. As a way to keep in moisture right out of the shower (I added essential oils to make it smell good, although without a scent it doesn't smell bad, but I get noodle from it. lol) it makes my skin even softer and that softness lasts a really long time. I mix it with some coconut oil that I have and apply it to my legs after shaving, and this soothes them and makes them shiny. I also use it in my hair to seal in moisture/ bring in moisture, and it makes it soft and I feel like it has also made my hair thicker as well (I'm black and have natural hair, 4a-4b). I also apply it to my eyelashes and I think they have benefited (longer, more volume), I apply it to my eyebrows also to make them lay the way I want them to! I really enjoy this product.
overall great!

I have been using this product for over 2 months now and so far the results are great!
Skin- by washing your face and then putting a warm rag/cloth on your face for a few minutes and then gently rubbing a LITTLE bit of this Castor Oil all over your face.. it will definitely help to clear up acne. It is not a miracle worker, but if you give it time and don't use too much it will improve the look of your skin (hopefully) it did for me. I am on BC so my face is always breaking out because of the hormones, but I noticed with this it calmed it down and gave my skin a nice glow. BEWARE: since Castor oil promotes hair growth give your skin a break so you don't grow a beard or just use some hair removing stuff.(apparently it wasn't clear this was an exaggeration and you will not literally grow a beard)
I also rub Castor oil on the bottom of my feet before going to bed. I have never used anything that made my feet this soft! It's amazing.
Hair- I heat a small amount of this up and then rub it through my hair trying to get to the roots and then put a shower cap on and let it sit for about 15 minutes before I take a shower and shampoo and condition like normal. It has made my hair extremely soft and shiny! I have not noticed much thickness in my hair because I have not been consistent and using it, but we shall see.
It has been great for eyebrows! I put a little on at night and sometimes during the day if I am not going anywhere. I have noticed it has helped to regrow some hair where it has been a little thin from over plucking/threading.
Overall great product! It has many uses the key is consistency and a little of it goes a LONG way!

I tore my rotator cuff years ago, and the surgeon looked at the MRI and ordered three separate surgeries. I wanted a second opinion. I went to a sports medicine massage therapist, and she offered an alternative: Massage to put the muscles and ligaments in the right place, then a Castor Oil regimen to get the inflammation out of the shoulder so the body could heal it. I started with 10 degrees of motion, and finished two months later with 100% range of motion thanks to the Castor Oil twice a week and some simple 'dangle and swing' the arm exercises.
Since then, I've used it to get rid of bruises, sore muscles, stop my eyes from burning, heal almost any kind of skin problems, and after so many successes, I became an evangelist for Castor Oil. ONe of my friends came back to life from fighting intestinal lesions that he can now ignore thanks to abdominal hot packs with Castor Oil. I'm improving how much hair grows on top of my head using a 50-50 mix of Castor Oil and Witch-hazel (to thin it out a bit so it spreads easier), and it works. I play guitar, partly due to the supple hands provided by Castor Oil treatments wherein I put my hands in rubber gloves with Castor Oil, and then use heating pads, and my hands feel like those of a 20-year old, tho I'm nearly 60. It also reduces the three fingers I have with trigger finger.
I know that many people cook with castor Oil,. but I have not tried it, but I plan to. I'm confident that CO can help with things like eshophigal eruptions, heartburn, and on and on and on...
The name 'Palma de Christi' is probably a good one for this oil. Many attribute some of Jesus' healing miracles directly to castor oil, which was known well before Christ.
My new favorite multipurpose friend

I am obsessed with castor oil now. This oil has so many uses it's unbelievable. But this is my biggest testimony to it's amazingness.
I am on a medication that can cause scalp acne for some.. lucky me, I got it. The bumps were at worst, 2" in diameter, very swollen and so painful they hurt when I would walk! My hair was thinning and I was starting to have bad anxiety every time I had to wash and brush my hair. I tried using T-Gel every few days, it just made my hair so dry and was starting to cause dandruff from the scabs, while it was treating the current bumps, it was not preventing new ones. Then I tried buying expensive shampoo, still no help. So, after researching castor oil and it's medicinal properties, I decided to try it on my scalp.
TRULY a GOD SEND!
I worked my way through my hair, parting it, then dabbed/brushed the castor oil on my scalp with a 2" bristle paint brush. I applied it liberally, and once I was done - combed it gently through my hair. I pinned it up and put a plastic shower cap on. I left it in for a few hours, then showered. I had to wash my hair 3 times to get the oil out, and I put conditioner in very lightly at the ends.
A week later.. SCALP ACNE COMPLETELY CLEARED UP !!!!! and after 2 treatments (once a week) my HAIR ISN'T THINNING ANYMORE!!! I've even noticed my hair seems to be growing in places I never noticed were sparse! I've been doing it once a week for about a month now, and it is officially part of my beauty regimen for the rest of my life!
2nd - less of a book - testimony:
I had a scrape biopsy done on a mole. After the initial would closed, I started rubbing castor oil on it at night - it healed way fast.
3rd testimony:
I bought an empty mascara tube with wand. Put the castor oil in, and at night I brush it on my lashes. My lashes are growing - very slowly, but I do see a difference - and mascara glides on much easier with less clumping (no I did not change brands of mascara).
4th testimony:
Traditional use, and why it's in the laxative isle. My friend's son was dealing with horrid constipation. After taking this, a few hours later and an entire role of toilet paper, he was back to his normal maniacal 8yr old self.
I know there are many other uses for this magical stuff, but I haven't tried them yet.. but oh.. I will!!!
Helps with hair loss
By Nicoleta
This review is from: Heritage Products Castor Oil
I am writing this review hoping that it will also help someone out there. So, I was experiencing really bad hair loss. I had blood work done, they checked my thyroid, everything came out perfect. I had a serious haircut, I tried some very expensive treatments and shampoos, nothing worked. Decided to do some research on my own, came across castor oil. Researched the best products based on reviews. Decided to purchase this one. It works. This is what I do, night time only (I bought some plastic shower caps first): I combine organic honey, castor oil, pure cold pressed olive oil and 1 egg yolk, stir everything well using a wooden spoon until it becomes somewhat of a paste then apply it first on my scalp, massaging well. I use the whole thing covering all my hair until it looks, well, pretty nasty. I then put the shower cap on, wrap a towel around my head and go to sleep. Wake up, shampoo my hair twice then use a deep conditioner. I did this two-three times a week. Two weeks later, the amount of hair lost is about three quarters less. My hair looks much healthier. I am pretty sure that, soon, I will experience some new hair growth too. Please do not ask about quantities for the mask, try it once and adjust the quantities as you see fit, it all depends of the length of your hair. That's about it. Wishing you all well.
