Behold the Benefits of Castor!!
Many of you might remember your grandparents having castor oil on hand for everything from soothing bug bites to helping with constipation. Don’t worry – this isn’t that kind of blog post! Instead, we’re going to share some amazing benefits of castor oil in skincare – which is why we use it in almost all our soaps!
First, let’s answer the question: what is castor oil? Castor oil comes from the castor plant. The seeds are cold pressed to extract the natural oil, and then heated. Castor oil is a source of Omega 9 and most of it is made up of ricinoleic fatty acid, which is really good news for your skin!
Because of this fatty acid, castor oil is naturally an anti-inflammatory. Suffer from redness or swelling? The castor oil in our soaps can help reduce swelling, specifically related to pimples or eye bags.
Castor oil is also a triglyceride that has antibacterial properties. These properties help keep skin from becoming clogged, which can help to prevent blackheads or acne.
Got pain? Castor oil is naturally good for pain relieving and can help soothe sore muscles. It also has been shown to relieve joint pain.
Each of us is exposed to free radicals every day, for a variety of reasons. Free radicals are one of the driving forces behind premature signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles. The castor oil in our soaps is filled with antioxidants, whose job it is to fight these free radicals, leaving your skin looking more youthful and radiant.
Castor oil is also antifungal and antimicrobial, making it very good for a variety of skin conditions. Customers with eczema and psoriasis have noticed great results! It’s all about the fatty acids, which our skin loves!
Struggling with dry skin? Castor oil is a natural humectant. This means that it draws moisture from the air naturally and prevents water loss from your skin. This helps to relieve dryness and leaves skin feeling soft and moisturized.
In handcrafted soap, castor oil is a wonderful way to increase lather, with fluffy bubbles. You will love the bath or shower experience, and your skin will love the long-lasting benefits.
Natural, safe, effective skincare – the way God intended. That’s Yahwehs Naturals!
