Castor oil is made of the fruit of the castor tree. This is a shrub that grows miraculously quickly in a very short time.
This oil is used for a wide variety of things and not just in cosmetics. For a nourishing cream, the oil is less common (but don't worry unusual) and internal use is definitely not recommended. The oil mixes with alcohol, unique for a 'fat' vegetable oil.
Castor oil is mainly used in cosmetics for make-up. It is used in lipstick, lip gloss and mascara to give a nice shine. It is also used to make beautiful translucent and highly water-soluble soaps. Outside of cosmetics, it is used as a high-quality system and lubricating oil, but also as one of the best substances for maintaining leather.
De Hekserij does not sell products intended for use in foodstuffs or for other internal use. This product is NOT an exception, in fact: internal use of castor oil is not recommended, it can lead to violent vomiting and in a few cases even be fatal.
Castor oil is a vegetable oil. Castor oil does not require refining, it also has a good shelf life without processing and is suitable for the usual applications. Other names for castor oil include castor oil, oleum ricini, and castor oil.
Vegetable oil can (partly) become solid, especially in the cold season. This makes the oil appear cloudy, there are solid pieces in the form of lumps or long strings. It is often sufficient to allow the oil to come to room temperature, sometimes it is necessary to heat the oil in a bain marie for a while.
The INCI name is Ricinus Communis Seed Oil.
