Castor oil, also known scientifically as Ricinus Communis, is the oil extracted from the seeds of the caster bean. Castor oil has been used for 1000’s of years and dates back to ancient Egypt, where it was first used for medicinal and beauty treatments. Domesticated in Eastern Africa and introduced to China from India an estimated 1,500 years ago, the castor bean is one of the oldest cultivated crops on the planet. Castor oil gained notoriety early because of Cleopatra – Queen of the Nile, who used it as a beauty aid.

The main fatty acid is called ricinoleic acid, a natural #humectant which retains moisture in the #skin by preventing water loss from the outer layer of the #skin. #ricinoleic acid also has anti-inflammatory and pain-reducing properties.
