Overview of Organic Castor Oil
Our organic castor oil is as simple and honest as it gets – cold-pressed, unrefined, and free from hexane or additives. Just one pure ingredient, carefully made in small batches.
It’s the kind of everyday staple you’ll find people using for hair, scalp, brows, lashes, dry skin, or even as a trusty base for DIY blends.
And because we’re a small family business, every bottle is filled with the same care we’d put into something for our own home.
Castor Oil Benefits
- Deep Hydration & Repair: Our castor oil sinks in deeply, giving thirsty skin the moisture and care it needs. Think soft, calm, and nourished – just like something you’d want in your own family’s cabinet.
- Hair & Lash Growth Support: Packed with nutrients, it helps encourage stronger, fuller strands—whether it’s the hair on your head or the lashes and brows that frame your face. We’ve seen it work wonders for everyday routines in our own home.
- Soothing & Clarifying: With natural anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial qualities, it gently supports clearer, calmer-looking skin. A little daily care goes a long way.
- Multi-Purpose Beauty Oil: From lips and cuticles to makeup removal, this oil works overtime so you don’t need a shelf full of products. That’s why we keep it stocked in our own family bathroom—it does it all.

How to Use Castor Oil
Because it’s rich and concentrated, a little goes a long way. These are the same simple ways we show friends and family how to use it at home:
Hair & Scalp Care
Warm a small amount between your palms and massage into your scalp to boost circulation. Smooth it down through your strands to help with dryness and split ends. Leave on for 30–60 minutes – or overnight if you want a deep treatment – then wash out with shampoo. Once or twice a week is plenty. This is the same ritual we use ourselves on Sunday evenings.
Brows & Lashes
Dip a clean spoolie or swab in the oil, wipe off the extra, and lightly brush across brows or along the lash line. Use before bed for best results, and gently blot away any excess with a tissue. A tiny touch each night makes a big difference over time – we’ve seen it firsthand.
Skin Moisturizing
On slightly damp skin, press in 2–3 drops directly or mix with your favorite cream. It softens dry spots, helps with rough patches, and leaves skin feeling calm and cared for. Also great for cuticles, elbows, and knees. This is one of our go-to family remedies for dry winter hands.
FAQs About Organic Castor Oil
What is organic castor oil and how is it made?
It’s made from Ricinus communis seeds, grown without pesticides. We cold-press and carefully filter it in small batches – no heat, no solvents, no shortcuts. Just the same way we’d want it if we were making it only for our own family.
What does “hexane free castor oil” mean?
It means the oil is pressed mechanically, not extracted with chemicals. What you get is a cleaner, more natural product – something we’re proud to bottle and use at home ourselves.
How does cold-pressed castor oil differ from refined or expeller-pressed?
Cold-pressed keeps more nutrients, a rich texture, and that natural pale-gold color. Refined oils go through heavy processing, losing some of what makes castor oil special. Expeller-pressed uses heat, which can strip nutrients too. We stick with cold-pressed for a reason – because it’s what we’d give to our own family.
Is this 100% pure castor oil?
Yes. One ingredient, nothing else – no fillers, no fragrances, no dyes. Just like we promise in every bottle.
Can I use organic castor oil on hair, brows, and lashes?
Absolutely, many folks do. Just start with a patch test and avoid direct eye contact. It’s been part of our own daily routine for years.
Can I use castor oil on my face or body?
Yes, but start small since it’s a thicker oil. Some people mix it with a lighter carrier oil to balance it out. That’s how we often use it in our family for everyday moisturizing.
Can I ingest castor oil?
Nope—ours is cosmetic grade only. Always talk with a healthcare professional before considering internal use. We make this oil for external care only.
What’s the difference between Jamaican black castor oil and regular organic castor oil?
Jamaican black is made by roasting the seeds first, giving it a darker color and smokier scent. Cold-pressed organic castor oil isn’t roasted, so it’s lighter in color and smell. Both have their place—this one is the version we’ve chosen for our family business because of its gentle, versatile nature.
How do I store castor oil so it stays fresh?
Keep the lid tight and store in a cool, dark spot. Use within 6–12 months of opening. It’s the same way we store our own bottles at home.
Is castor oil a good carrier oil for DIY blends?
Yes – it’s a favorite for makers thanks to its thickness. Just remember safe dilution and patch testing. Many small makers we work with use it as a base for their own handmade blends.
Do you offer wholesale or bulk sizes?
Yes, we do. We work with salons, studios, and other small businesses. Reach out and we’ll be glad to help—because supporting other small businesses is part of our mission.
Is castor oil suitable for everyone?
Skin and hair vary from person to person. Always patch test first, avoid eye contact, and check with a professional if you’ve got any specific concerns. It’s advice we follow ourselves, and what we’d recommend to any family member too.
Does OrganicCastor sell larger sizes of organic castor oil?
Yes, you can purchase them through this listing or from our specific bulk organic castor oil listing.

Sandra –
Really nice oil, no additives and smells natural. It helps with my dry patches and also keeps my nails strong. I just don’t like how small the dropper is. Solid 4 stars though.
Aiden J –
Super moisturizing on dry skin, especially elbows and knees. It does feel heavy at first but sinks in overnight and leaves everything soft. I even used it on cracked heels and it worked. Best oil I’ve tried.
Oliver T. –
Very high quality, organic, and cold-pressed. I did some research before buying and this is the real thing. I use it both on my scalp and skin. It’s heavy, yes, but when massaged in properly it improves circulation and softness. Would absolutely recommend.

Pure castor oil, nothing else. Love that it’s organic.

The oil is golden and has that natural earthy scent, which I love. I use it both for scalp massages and mixed with jojoba oil on my skin. It absorbs slowly but the results are worth it. A high-quality organic castor oil.

Bianca –
Used it for oil cleansing method, skin feels so smooth.

This castor oil is so rich and thick, you can tell it’s the real deal. I use it on my hairline every night and already notice little baby hairs coming in. The bottle feels high quality and you don’t need much, so it lasts. Definitely worth it.
Emily T. –
Put it on my eyelashes every night and I swear they grew.
Shaniqua –
This oil saved my edges! They were thinning and I was panicking, but after a few weeks of use they’re filling back in. It’s sticky and a little messy but that’s normal for castor oil. I’m honestly shocked it worked so fast.
Darren P. –
Good oil, very thick and feels pure. I mostly use it on my scalp and it helps with dryness. My only issue is the dropper is small, so it takes a while to get enough out. Otherwise excellent.
Leah –
I’m new to castor oil so I wasn’t sure what to expect. This one feels clean and organic, nothing weird added. It does make my skin softer, but the heaviness takes getting used to. I’d give it a strong 4 stars.

Finally found castor oil that doesn’t stink weird.

Trevor –
This is way better than the cheap stuff I bought at the pharmacy. It feels authentic, heavy but clean. My scalp doesn’t flake anymore and my hair looks shinier. I’ll definitely reorder.
Ivy W –
My brows have been fuller since I started with this. It’s thick so I only use a little with a mascara wand, and it spreads fine. The fact that it’s organic makes me trust it more. Great buy.
Connor S –
Didn’t expect much but wow, it made my beard softer and way less patchy. The smell is natural, like earthy beans, not gross or perfumey. I’m actually excited to keep using this. Five stars for sure.
Mikhail –
Super moisturizing on elbows and feet.

I use it twice a week as a scalp treatment and it’s been a game-changer. My hair feels stronger and thicker at the roots. Washing it out takes effort, but that’s how you know it’s the real thing. Definitely five stars.

The oil works well on my scalp and also for cracked hands. It’s really thick, so I warm it up before using to make it easier. A bit messy, but very effective. Would buy again.

Kate L –
After a couple weeks, I can see small improvements in my brows. It’s not dramatic yet but I think it’s working. The texture is a bit too thick to use straight, though. Still worth it for the price.
Omar –
Very nice oil, the packaging was good and it didn’t leak. It’s super thick though, so I always mix it with another oil to spread it. Works great once you figure that out. Overall a solid product.
Noor A –
I was skeptical about castor oil for lashes but now I see a real difference. They look darker and stronger. Just one drop lasts forever so the bottle should last months. Excellent quality.

Too thick for me, prefer lighter oils.

Kay –

Nora –
The oil is definitely pure and organic, you can tell by the smell and color. It does wonders for my dry hair, but it’s not the easiest to apply. I have to dilute it with coconut oil. That’s my only complaint.
Mo –
Works nice
Mike –
Works okay but messy to apply. Or I might be clumsy lol
Anna –
idk it works
Kevin D. –
Came in a glass bottle, feels premium. Using it on beard and works.
Sandra –
Good oil but wish the dropper was bigger.
Courtney –
Def recommend if ur looking for lash growth.
Lexi –
Solid quality castor oil, no doubt. It’s heavy and sticky, so you have to learn the right amount or else it feels greasy. Once I figured that out, it works great. Four stars just for the texture.
Marcos –
Helped my lashes but made my eyes itchy at first.
