Castor oil (Ricinus communis) is a strong cleansing oil that’s especially effective in targeted skincare, hair care, and scalp care applications. It is known for preserving moisture while its fatty acids leave the skin feeling nourished. It’s not surprising that this oil has found recent popularity in oil cleansing methods for skincare.
