Aura CaciaOrganic Skin Care Oil, Castor, 4 Fluid Ounce

After being dissatisfied with the results of dry cuticle oils, I wanted to try castor oil on my cuticles (eponychium, actually) and on the skin around my nails, which gets dry and flaky and looks bad. I chose Aura Cacia because it is cold-pressed, organic, I like the products that its parent company produces (Aura Cacia is owned by Frontier Co-Op), and the price is a lot better than castor oil that is marketed as a beauty product. This is a generous 4-ounce (half-cup) bottle. The bottle is flexible; you can squeeze it. The oil comes out a hole in the top that has a little flap over it to prevent the oil from pouring out in large quantity.Castor oil is heavy and goopy, similar in consistency to olive oil, so it's not practical to leave it on my fingers for long during the day. I prefer to use it at night, slathered over my nails and surrounding skin, inside cotton gloves intended for moisturizing or skin treatments. The oil has more opportunity to soak in that way, though a lot of it ends up in the gloves. I've been pleased with the results. The skin around my nails is softer and more uniform in texture and color. I plan to try the castor oil on my eyebrows also, to see if it will help my thinning brows, but I fear the goopiness of the oil will make a mess of my sleep mask.I also purchased Aura Cacia's Vegetable Glycerin to use in homemade serums. Those with soy allergy should be aware that this vegetable glycerin is sourced primarily from soy. I am impressed by the selection and prices for Aura Cacia's body care oils. The company produces a lot of oils for massage but also classics like jojoba oil, grapeseed oil, hemp seed oil, and sweet almond oil. Their face oils, such as argan or rose hip oil, are more expensive than those from The Ordinary, but they offer Tamanu Seed Oil, Baobab Seed Oil, and Macadamia Oil. They also offer a variety of essential oils and mists, but those are not my thing.

Takes my knee pain away.Great product

I usually like to get castor oil that's in a glass bottle, but despite this factor the product is amazing. So many uses and health benefits and has the effect of natural Botox. 10/10 recommend adding to skin care routine.

Liked this castor oil a lot, but I’d prefer if it was available in glass bottle. The size is perfect for traveling.

After becoming a regular at my brow lady and getting my brows laminated, she recommended I put castor oil on them to prolong the results. After researching a bit I cam across this product and as someone who has purchased from Aura Cacia before I knew the quality would be good. This product is reasonably priced and will last a very long time. My needs are only very small as I just use a drop or two per eyebrow. I have yet to use it for all the other amazing health and wellness things it is supposed to be good for but I plan on it!

It seems to be working on my skin. Next I will try my hair. For hair growth.

Second time purchasing! Great product! Very thick no smell and leaves my skin feeling super soft as I mix with frankinscence oil for a night moisturizer. Also used for my hair as I’ve dealt with a lot of hair loss due to stress. Seems to work. Great size bottle. Natural product!

It helps when removing big bandages without pain. First time to use caster oil, but it seems quite gooey, more like gel than oil. No unpleasant smell and it works for me.
