You have convinced me on the castor oil! I am 40 and I can see my scalp on the crown of my head, I am going to try to fix this. I had a cyst under my scalp 6 months ago, I went to the dr and we were going to schedule a procedure to remove it. That night I rubbed some castor oil on it, I woke up and the cyst had drained overnight from ONE castor oil application. I’ve really been enjoying your channel 🙏🏻
I was loosing hair like you describe- I stopped hair dye and that helped. Then I started castor oil scalp massage the night before washing my hair. Once a week hair washing was also part of the whole process. The little baby hairs increased significantly. Now I keep caster oil on my bathroom countertop with a pretty plate underneath cause it’s an oil and I’m human. Love it- totally recommend it - organic, hexane free and in a brown glass bottle 🥰🐛🦋🙏🏼
@@zanbuddyay thank you for your comment! I don’t color my hair, haven’t in 5+ years, but I could take way better care of my scalp. I feel motivated to actually do this. I keep thinking how I’m going to do head massages, and I just don’t, and I’m a massage therapist 😂 I love the respect you’re giving to the castor oil, setting it up all pretty. I’m sure that good energy infuses into it!
Wow that's really incredible news about the scalp cyst. I have heard similar things about using Castor oil on cysts in breasts. If you are going to do Castor oil on your scalp for hair loss try adding some rosemary oil in.
I am 73 and my tip for your face is to add castor oil to your usual night cream. I started about a year ago and the wrinkles are honestly disappearing. I leave it on all night.
I started doing that about a month ago and can already see the difference! My eyelashes and eyebrows are growing like crazy and undereye circles are much lighter. 72 years old here!
I am sixty and I have been using castor oil in my eyebrows and skin for years. It has truly helped me avoid creepy skin in my arms and legs. And my brows are full ❤. Thanks for sharing beautiful lady
My dear girls, remember to apply anything you use on your face to the back of your hand. Mama and Granny gave me this tip many many years ago, and no one believes when I say I'm almost 60. Take care of neck and hands as you do to your face!!! 😉
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND mixing the Castor oil half and half with either sweet almond oil (natural source of retinoic acid), jojoba, or grapeseed (if you struggle with itchy, dry, or easily irritated skin).
Same thing happened for me. I have really bushy eyebrows; having live through the 90s, it's a miracle. But there were spars holes, which castor oil has filled in. Grateful.
I love this stuff! Ive only been using Castor oil for a few weeks, already i can see a difference in my skin! Im 59 and my skin is smoothing out.. including lip lines!!! Im a total convert! ❤❤
From the first second, I saw you weren't wearing any eyebrows and yet you had hair!!! I whooped so loud I scared my dog (he was sleeping)! (I'll make it up to him with an extra long walk 😊) You must have heard me in Cal all the way from here in Belgium!!! 😂 I'm so so so happy for you! As far as facial hair growth, I (post-menopausal) have not seen any increase in the peach fuzz. I do have to shave my chin and part of my jawline daily, my upper lip every 2-3 days, but that was the case before I started on castor oil. I don't know if my eyebrows are thicker because I have Einstein-thick ones anyway. 😉 For me, the benefits of castor oil are amazing, the only downside is that extra stickiness when I use it head to toe, because boy is it thick! I often get some on my cotton bedsheets, I pre-treat the oily spots with dishwashing liquid before I launder and it takes them out, even in cold water. 👍
Storing a part of the oil for easy access: you can use a clean dry glass jar with a lid with a wide opening, then you can have that in the bathroom and either pick it up with your clean fingers or using a spatula or tiny spoon to get it out for your care routine. I would not leave a metal spoon IN the jar, maybe untreated wood would be fine. Oil has the property to dissolve chemicals. That is why it should never be stored in plastic bottles. When this small quantity it is used up quickly it will not deteriorate even with the light and the warmer environment. And using the clean fingers is O.K. The main bottle is kept in the fridge and when you get oil of of it you are mindful of hygiene because a bit of that oil can go into your eyes. (which can be good, there are even eye drops that contain 5 % of so of castor oil. It "greases" the eyes and especially if you have too little fluid that is a good thing). But of course if the oil gets into your eyes (even small quantities, it should not contain bacteria). That said: Castor oil is not prone to getting rancid and it is not a good environment for microbes either, if you observe common sense hygiene. It does not have to be sterile, the washed fingers will be fine. I stored castor oil in a small bottle of dark glass. In the past I did not know it was used for healing and for skincare. BUT a high end shop for leather couches and the like gave me the tip to use castor oil for high quality leather (also for leather acessories). Now of course only smooth leather surfaces, nothing like suede etc. But for your belt or a sofa, or a bag, and the like it is great. It can be applied using clean hands. I noticed then that it was good for the skin of my hands, but did not figure out that I could use it on a regular base for the dry skin of my hands (especially when doing household chores with water). Now this bottle got "lost" during a move and I found it in the garage this spring. The oil must have been at least 10 years old, probably older (the leather couch that we had back in the day got the oil treatment once per year only, so it lasted for longer). But I had put the rest of the oil in a small and dark glass bottle and since the diameter was small the oil did not have a lot of contact surface with air (the air inside the bottle, there was of course a lid). It was stored in a cool and rather dark place = garage. As we do not have that leather couch anymore, and I wanted to use it up - I used it for my feet and my hands, and occasionally the legs and arms - and it was fine. Looked and smelled like new oil. And had the same effect as the new oil.
Castor oil has an organic smell to me. A little like a nutty, organic scent. You can always mix it with a scented lotion or face cream if the scent bothers you. Been using it for about 6 months!
Make sure you use 100% cotton socks. Your pillowcase should be silk or cotton. Otherwise, especially in the US, it will transfer the toxins that is used in our textiles.
Call me crazy, but I have personally always liked the look of peach fuzz and have always found smile lines (crows feet) to be nice. The only thing I can't get on board with is the frown lines...because they make us look negative even if we are not! And thank you, I will check out that micro needle product. That's worth a try!
My frown area has improved since I had started doing Aysel's frown massage (I don't use castor oil, though, as I don't want any more hair growing between my eyebrows...). I use a mixture of rosehip oil and Aloe gel. I use a little bit of castor oil around my eyes and it is really good for this delicate area.
I have castor oil on now, I massaged into feet , face, knees, elbows, belly, yesterday and I have in my hair will wash off later after I swim ❤great stuff
It's too oily for my face, so I can only use it once in a while. But it's great for the feet. I put it on and wear socks when I want my heels soft. No need to use pumice stone. It really softens and hydrates and makes the bottom of the feet pink.
Congratulations on the eyebrow Diana, looks amazing! I’m currently using Caster Oil on you recommendation and excited to see if my eyebrow gap will grow back although my issue is a little scar but you never know, right? Thanks for all the positivity you bring. I’m a true crime junkie which is very dark as you can imaging and you are a much needed little light in my life. 😊
You are too funny! But I do completely vibe with your excitement about growing back your eyebrows! My eyebrows are painfully thin, I am going to have to try this!
I really want to use castor oil on my #11’s and my neck…I did a number on my brows in the 90’s early 00’s and they’ve come back but I could always use more-glad that I’m not the only one dermaplaning!
Great update ! I have been using castor oil since February, but most consistently for the last 4 months. I use it on my eyebrows, eyelids, neck, abdomen, hands and arms. I started for liver health and to help with growing my eyebrows back. I discovered by using it on my eyelids at night it helps with my dry eyes during the day. My eyebrows are also returning as the tails were almost gone too. My eyelashes are longer, but not noticeably thicker yet. I am 66 for reference. I have noticed extra hair growth on my chin and mustache area where I normally have an issue, but so what. I view this as a minor issue, at least this hair is gray now instead of brown. It is amazing stuff, I will be continuing to use it nightly.
This is exciting! I over-plucked my eyebrows back in the '70s. I've been using retinal and my brows are responding a bit. So now I will now also use caster oil. Thanks
Me too! Watched you and started using Castor oil ! people comment on my eyebrows, if you didn’t know as we age they can get sparse and so light they almost disappear! Not anymore skin feels soft and glows! Thank you!
I love the tip about decanting a little and refrigerating the rest - my fridge has almond, rosehip, jojoba and grapeseed oils, rosewater, about 30 bottles of essential oils and witchhazel so I really should have thought of that!! 😂🤣
I use my DIY castor oil cleansing blend to remove my eye makeup, and occasionally to clean my while face,and occasionally remember to apply the straight oil to my brows and lashes. Your brows look great, Diana! I'll had to be more diligent with that. I have used my own oil blends for years to moisturize and treat issues. I recently tried mixing castor oil in with my tried and true face oils after watching some rave reviews on TH-cam. It was Lovely for the first 1-2 days, then my extremely dry sensitive skin started to feel overstimulated and more sensitive, and my dermatitis started to flare. I think it's just a bit too strong for whole face daily use for me.
I'm so glad to see you stopped shaving off your beautiful eyebrow! They arch perfectly and your higher arched eyebrow looks so glamorous! Btw, I ❤ da kitteh
I just turned 46 and I'm going to join you on the Castor Oil train! My skin has changed so much in just the last year. I'm always been more Combo but it's feeling dry and I really need something moisturizing for night time.
You are amazing, so natural, and such a sense oh humour. Your videos are best fun for my morning. Big hug from Australia. / Castor oil is good also to mix with coconut oil . It did not help me yet with nails, but fingers crossed. And wrinkles... hmm, there is no help, 40s are gone long ago.
I love these updates! I missed your first video on castor oil but have been using it on my scalp for a few years - and it's an ingredient in my shampoo bar. Never thought to use it on my skin tho - thought it would be too thick/rich - so am pleased to see these recommendations for lines, skin tags, heels etc. I started using a delicious-smelling skin cream (Antipodes Lime Caviar) and it literally disappeared my fine lines overnight from first use - but as much as I love it, it does cost a bit more than castor oil! Will be slathering the latter much more frequently, and liberally, from now on. Thank you for sharing! :)
Thank you. I thoroughly agree with your enthusiasm, and important info about hexane free. I can't believe I found closest to a miracle oil ( doesn't fix EVERYTHING), in castor oil, and relatively affordable. ( mine is in plastic though, and transferred). Also the slugging with vaseline can be unexpectedly worthwhile. I am now 56. I have a medium to finer skin type. I have some precancerous marks on face and some major ones on hands that have cleared away! I don't have before and afters, but I REALLY recommend it. Assuming you don't mind a heavy goo-ey nature, which I have gotten used to. My skin started falling apart during menopause around 51 and too much sun. That said, I bought it for my two Sisters. One is 62, olive complexion, liking it. Will buy more. One 59, a more sensitive skin (not super sensitive), and she said her skin did not react well. I have yet to find the details on this. I have light coloured for body, rub over breasts, and belly and all bits at sometime every few days. It seems to be a heal all. Dark oil for face, apparently stronger content...I LOVE the sesame oil smell. I even used to use sesame oil on my face, can work too.

Congratulations on your lovely eyebrows! I have been using castor oil on my face and neck for about as long as you.I have had rosacea since I was pre-menopausal. The rosacea is really improved - it has not gone - but it is the best my face has been for years. I have not tried the black castor oil but will do that next.
To me, Castor oil smells very very lightly like peanut butter.... I've been using it for about 5 months and I have noticed my eyebrows growing in nicely. Also, microneedling works for that too! BUT I haven't seen any change in my skin and fine lines.😢 In fact, I have been doing retinol and argireline on fine lines too, and I've seen no difference. My skin texture has improved a lot though.
It’s funny, cuz cigarettes butts smell very slightly like peanut butter to me! So we’re all kinda identifying the same thing, with slightly different nuances!
I LOVE that NYX brow product... it's a true ash brown! Which is great, because SO many other products seem too warm or red on me. Castor oil is just too thick and viscous for me. TFS!
I add it to my serums day and night. Then I put more after my tallow balm. Under eyes, eyebrows, forehead, lips. After my shower, I mix it with my lotion or tallow body balm. (I haven’t seen extra hair growth on my face. But I shave it every few weeks.)
I’m not so sure about the dark glass bottle…..you can surely transfer to one if desired….this may be myth or propagated hype. I believe it is imported in plastic. It is insanely expensive in the glass, hence the propagated hype….
I find it soooo thick and sticky that I can’t imagine using it on large areas like arms. I do use it on a keratosis on my back and it shrinks it. It has been good for my brows, lashes and crows feet and my cuticles and nails.
I have what i call a "goat" hair that grows out of the side of my neck !!! (A good friend of mine snatched it off in the restroom at dinner the other night!). I am going to try the castor oil and i am amazed at the brow growth as i just watched one of your makeup tutorials just recently.
Ooh. I'm going to put castor oil on my feet. I don't go for pedicures because I feel bad making anyone other than me work on them. Maybe after castor oil I'll feel differently
WOW, thank you for your quick response, I will try it from today onwards, will let you know the results, also will try it on my eyebrows too, thank you, have a good day 😁
Great video! I want to use caster oil more at night but I typically tape my face at night. The caster oil won’t allow the tape to stick. Any suggestions? I thought about maybe alternating between the two.
Hi Diana, this is what I found om Google: It is actually not recommended to store Castor Oil in the refrigerator. Excessive heat and moisture can degrade castor oil, so it is recommended to store this in a cool, dry place. A pantry or room shelf is ideal storage, where the temperature is around 55-75 degrees Fahrenheit. Please give me an answer is this wright or wrong. Thanks!
I put it on my lashes every evening, my lashes definitely grew longer, you have to be consistent, it works for sure or vaseline will work too for lashes.
@@dibbleboo I think every night before bed? Just the straight oil, nothing else mixed in it and a bandaid I think? About a month I think she said, sorry Mom's gone now or I'd ask her. But that sounds about right. We theorized that it 'smothered' it some way.
Having to shave your face is not great, is It? I don't want my peach fuzz to grow any more than it already does. I might try it on my upper arms and heels though.
I have a question about your hair grow out. I’m growing out my hair, too, but I have curly hair. Do you keep cutting the bottom to get the layers out? Or did you not start with many layers? I started with a lot of layers and am having trouble growing them out.
Yeah I have to keep cutting off the back until it's nearly one length, then I can grow that out, but it does become a bell shape. So I have to be careful to thin out the bottom so the bell doesn't get too crazy. I'm not very good at it so I usually end up just cutting it short again. 😆
@@unblahyourself , I had to go back to get a haircut to have the back layered because the back of my head was jutting out too much. It seems like I need some layers. It’s really hard to grow out short hair!
😂😅😊 I'm laughing at your surprise at having new eyebrows!! They look really healthy and probably way better than the ones you'd been putting on...I laugh too when I see women with either 'caterpillar' or 'tadpole' eyebrows that look like something out of a Christmas Cracker 😂
So castor oil and micro needling. (Are there any longterm studies what happens to your skin when you do the micro needling for decades ?) I mean I am sure that castor oil is safe, it has been used in the past.
I think I said that it can make your facial hair grow but it didn't do that to me. It only made my eyebrow grow back and it didn't make my peach fuzz get any worse.
I'm no expert but I'd say that hormonal acne is more influenced by what is going on inside you (hormones, sleep, diet) than what you put on it... within reason, of course. I started getting hormonal acne with peri-menopause and found Evening Primrose Oil plus a couple of other skin/hair/nail supplements helped - without changing anything in my skin care regime. I put a lot more moisture on my face now without any breakouts, as losing oestrogen in peri/menopause does cause us to lose hydration everywhere. I drink coconut water for hydration rather than just water - high in electrolytes and potassium.
I just want to say that initially when I tried it I was breaking out and getting Milea. Especially around my eyes. However, Some people have suggested to put a small amount in your hand and then rub it together until it gets a bit hot or warm and then place it on your face. I have been doing this for the past two weeks and I’ve had no break outs. I am still leery of the Eye area however. I just have the slightest amount of my fingers and I lightly tap the area. I also use this really great face wash that really cleans my face well before applying.
So upsetting having to hear about castor oil 24 seven just like the coconut oil craze. Deathly allergic to castor oil gives me a terrible red itchy rash. Boooo 😢
Ladies, PLEASE STOP shaving your face! Peach fuzz is lovely. Judiciously pluck dark strays if you’d like, but my gosh, stop the neuroses about peach fuzz.
I mostly do it because it's very distracting in my earring pictures but otherwise I don't really even think about it. Some people have a lot more than others. Mine's pretty tolerable.

Interesting...i have some skintags, will try
Castor oil has an organic smell to me. A little like a nutty, organic scent. You can always mix it with a scented lotion or face cream if the scent bothers you. Been using it for about 6 months!
Normal castor oil smells that way, the black Jamaican kind smells smoky. I believe because the beans are roasted.

I really want to use castor oil on my #11’s and my neck…I did a number on my brows in the 90’s early 00’s and they’ve come back but I could always use more-glad that I’m not the only one dermaplaning!
Great update ! I have been using castor oil since February, but most consistently for the last 4 months. I use it on my eyebrows, eyelids, neck, abdomen, hands and arms. I started for liver health and to help with growing my eyebrows back. I discovered by using it on my eyelids at night it helps with my dry eyes during the day. My eyebrows are also returning as the tails were almost gone too. My eyelashes are longer, but not noticeably thicker yet. I am 66 for reference. I have noticed extra hair growth on my chin and mustache area where I normally have an issue, but so what. I view this as a minor issue, at least this hair is gray now instead of brown. It is amazing stuff, I will be continuing to use it nightly.
The black castor oil, i believe the seeds are roasted which explains the smokey odor. I add lavender or other essential oil to make it smell nice 😊
This is exciting! I over-plucked my eyebrows back in the '70s. I've been using retinal and my brows are responding a bit. So now I will now also use caster oil. Thanks
I now have a complete eyebrow after 9 months of using castor oil!
I didn’t know you should refrigerate it- thanx for the tip!
I've never read or heard that it should refrigerated, and it doesn't say that on the bottle. Can someone explain why it should be kept cold?
Me too! Watched you and started using Castor oil ! people comment on my eyebrows, if you didn’t know as we age they can get sparse and so light they almost disappear! Not anymore skin feels soft and glows! Thank you!
I love the tip about decanting a little and refrigerating the rest - my fridge has almond, rosehip, jojoba and grapeseed oils, rosewater, about 30 bottles of essential oils and witchhazel so I really should have thought of that!! 😂🤣
I use my DIY castor oil cleansing blend to remove my eye makeup, and occasionally to clean my while face,and occasionally remember to apply the straight oil to my brows and lashes. Your brows look great, Diana! I'll had to be more diligent with that.
I have used my own oil blends for years to moisturize and treat issues. I recently tried mixing castor oil in with my tried and true face oils after watching some rave reviews on TH-cam. It was Lovely for the first 1-2 days, then my extremely dry sensitive skin started to feel overstimulated and more sensitive, and my dermatitis started to flare. I think it's just a bit too strong for whole face daily use for me.
I'm so glad to see you stopped shaving off your beautiful eyebrow! They arch perfectly and your higher arched eyebrow looks so glamorous! Btw, I ❤ da kitteh
I still shave off the very top of it but at least there's some hair underneath it now!
I just turned 46 and I'm going to join you on the Castor Oil train! My skin has changed so much in just the last year. I'm always been more Combo but it's feeling dry and I really need something moisturizing for night time.
It's perfect for a night time because it's much too heavy to wear during the day
@@unblahyourself Did you kind of ease yourself into using it every night? I'm a little worried about acne but the benefits seem worth a try at least!
You could definitely ease yourself into it by mixing it with a lighter oil, like coconut.
@@unblahyourself great tip, thanks!
You are amazing, so natural, and such a sense oh humour. Your videos are best fun for my morning. Big hug from Australia. / Castor oil is good also to mix with coconut oil . It did not help me yet with nails, but fingers crossed. And wrinkles... hmm, there is no help, 40s are gone long ago.
😘
I love these updates! I missed your first video on castor oil but have been using it on my scalp for a few years - and it's an ingredient in my shampoo bar. Never thought to use it on my skin tho - thought it would be too thick/rich - so am pleased to see these recommendations for lines, skin tags, heels etc. I started using a delicious-smelling skin cream (Antipodes Lime Caviar) and it literally disappeared my fine lines overnight from first use - but as much as I love it, it does cost a bit more than castor oil! Will be slathering the latter much more frequently, and liberally, from now on. Thank you for sharing! :)
Oooh that lotion sounds delightful 😍
Thank you. I thoroughly agree with your enthusiasm, and important info about hexane free.
I can't believe I found closest to a miracle oil ( doesn't fix EVERYTHING), in castor oil, and relatively affordable. ( mine is in plastic though, and transferred).
Also the slugging with vaseline can be unexpectedly worthwhile.
I am now 56. I have a medium to finer skin type.
I have some precancerous marks on face and some major ones on hands that have cleared away!
I don't have before and afters, but I REALLY recommend it.
Assuming you don't mind a heavy goo-ey nature, which I have gotten used to.
My skin started falling apart during menopause around 51 and too much sun.
That said, I bought it for my two Sisters.
One is 62, olive complexion, liking it. Will buy more.
One 59, a more sensitive skin (not super sensitive), and she said her skin did not react well.
I have yet to find the details on this.
I have light coloured for body, rub over breasts, and belly and all bits at sometime every few days. It seems to be a heal all.
Dark oil for face, apparently stronger content...I LOVE the sesame oil smell. I even used to use sesame oil on my face, can work too.
That is a great idea pitting the Castor Oil in an empty ordinary bottle! Thx ❤
or in a clean glass jar with a lid with a wide opening, then you can have that in the bathroom and either pick it up with your clean fingers or using a spatula or tiny spoon to get it out for your care routine. When this small quantity it is used up quickly it will not deteriorate even with the light and the warmer environment.
The main bottle is kept in the fridge and when you get oil of of it you are mindful of hygiene (because a bit of that oil can go into your eyes. (which can be good, there are even eye drops that contain 5 % of so of castor oil. It "greases" the eyes and especially if you have too little fluid that is a good thing).
But of course if the oil gets into your eyes (even small quantities, it should not contain bacteria).
That said: I head castor oil in a small bottle of dark glass. In the past I did not know it was used for healing and for skincare. BUT I had gotten the tip of a high end shop for leather couches and the like to use castor oil for leather (also for leather acessories). Now of course only smooth leather surfaces, nothing like suede etc.
But for your belt and the like it is great. It can be applied using clean hands. I noticed then that it was good for my hands, but did not figure out that I could use it for dry skin (especially when doing household chores with water).
Now this bottle got "lost" during a move and I found it in the garage. The oil must have been at least 10 years old. But it was a dark bottle and since the diameter was small the oil did not have a lot of contact with air (the air inside the bottle). It was stored in a cool and rather dark place.
I used it for my feet and my hands, and occasionally the legs - and it was fine. Looked and smelled like new oil. And had the same effect as the new oil.
Congratulations on your lovely eyebrows! I have been using castor oil on my face and neck for about as long as you.I have had rosacea since I was pre-menopausal. The rosacea is really improved - it has not gone - but it is the best my face has been for years. I have not tried the black castor oil but will do that next.
Good to hear!
I would also be excited!
Ah, that's so great! Congrats! I've got more than enough eyebrow growth, but also wrinkles on the forehead. So maybe I'll try out this stuff, too. 🙂
To me, Castor oil smells very very lightly like peanut butter.... I've been using it for about 5 months and I have noticed my eyebrows growing in nicely. Also, microneedling works for that too! BUT I haven't seen any change in my skin and fine lines.😢 In fact, I have been doing retinol and argireline on fine lines too, and I've seen no difference. My skin texture has improved a lot though.
It’s funny, cuz cigarettes butts smell very slightly like peanut butter to me! So we’re all kinda identifying the same thing, with slightly different nuances!
I LOVE that NYX brow product... it's a true ash brown! Which is great, because SO many other products seem too warm or red on me. Castor oil is just too thick and viscous for me. TFS!
I add it to my serums day and night. Then I put more after my tallow balm. Under eyes, eyebrows, forehead, lips. After my shower, I mix it with my lotion or tallow body balm. (I haven’t seen extra hair growth on my face. But I shave it every few weeks.)
I’m not so sure about the dark glass bottle…..you can surely transfer to one if desired….this may be myth or propagated hype. I believe it is imported in plastic. It is insanely expensive in the glass, hence the propagated hype….
Helped my eyelashes as well
Why didn't you mentioned this before?. I've seen it elsewhere but was unsure about using it 🎉🎉. I'll give it a go.
Here's the first video on it: th-cam.com/video/bt9ee4vNal8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ruYS6sfDf69RE2-g
I love it!
I find it soooo thick and sticky that I can’t imagine using it on large areas like arms. I do use it on a keratosis on my back and it shrinks it. It has been good for my brows, lashes and crows feet and my cuticles and nails.
Oh it's amazing on arms. Give it a chance!
I have what i call a "goat" hair that grows out of the side of my neck !!! (A good friend of mine snatched it off in the restroom at dinner the other night!). I am going to try the castor oil and i am amazed at the brow growth as i just watched one of your makeup tutorials just recently.
I have two goat hairs! 🐐 😆
Ooh. I'm going to put castor oil on my feet. I don't go for pedicures because I feel bad making anyone other than me work on them. Maybe after castor oil I'll feel differently
Hi, your video is funny and informative, thank you, a question, would castor oil get rid of brown age spots? 🤔
@@carolraymond618 it does for a lot of people!
WOW, thank you for your quick response, I will try it from today onwards, will let you know the results, also will try it on my eyebrows too, thank you, have a good day 😁
Great video! I want to use caster oil more at night but I typically tape my face at night. The caster oil won’t allow the tape to stick. Any suggestions? I thought about maybe alternating between the two.
Yes I would alternate it
Thank you Diana, think I'm going to give castor oil a go. Thank you .😊💄😍 xxx
Hi Diana, this is what I found om Google: It is actually not recommended to store Castor Oil in the refrigerator. Excessive heat and moisture can degrade castor oil, so it is recommended to store this in a cool, dry place. A pantry or room shelf is ideal storage, where the temperature is around 55-75 degrees Fahrenheit. Please give me an answer is this wright or wrong. Thanks!
Interesting. I heard in several places to store in the fridge but I didn't do the science myself so who knows?
I store mine in the fridge, that’s what it said on the packaging 😊it seems to be ok.
I have used Black castor oil ….smells like fresh tobacco to me…
Any positive impact on your eyelashes? Thank you!
I put it on my lashes every evening, my lashes definitely grew longer, you have to be consistent, it works for sure or vaseline will work too for lashes.
Yes it helps with eyelashes. Please be careful using around the eyes. It doesnt take a lot
I have never had great eyelashes and I haven't really been checking for eyelash progress but now I'm going to keep an eye out, pun intended!
My brows grew in after a few weeks
My mom said it dissolved her skin tags.
Really? Thanks for sharing that. Do you know how often and how she did it? My husband keeps getting skin tags and he’s so self conscious about it 😔
Wow!
@@dibbleboo I think every night before bed? Just the straight oil, nothing else mixed in it and a bandaid I think? About a month I think she said, sorry Mom's gone now or I'd ask her. But that sounds about right. We theorized that it 'smothered' it some way.
My eyes are😅 the same colors as yours. I use virgin coconut oil. I'm 68
I do castor oil to remoisten/hydrate my lashes before bed
(you can retrain your eyebrows’ musculature with a NuFace device)
Oh interesting. I don't know what that device is but I'll go check it out!
How often should the castor be used on the face? Thank you for sharing your experience.
Everybody's got different skin but for me I could use it nearly every night and some people might use it once a week or never.
Having to shave your face is not great, is It? I don't want my peach fuzz to grow any more than it already does. I might try it on my upper arms and heels though.
I have a question about your hair grow out. I’m growing out my hair, too, but I have curly hair. Do you keep cutting the bottom to get the layers out? Or did you not start with many layers? I started with a lot of layers and am having trouble growing them out.
Yeah I have to keep cutting off the back until it's nearly one length, then I can grow that out, but it does become a bell shape. So I have to be careful to thin out the bottom so the bell doesn't get too crazy. I'm not very good at it so I usually end up just cutting it short again. 😆
@@unblahyourself , I had to go back to get a haircut to have the back layered because the back of my head was jutting out too much. It seems like I need some layers. It’s really hard to grow out short hair!
I use in the morning and work it in. (Silly esp text)
😂😅😊 I'm laughing at your surprise at having new eyebrows!! They look really healthy and probably way better than the ones you'd been putting on...I laugh too when I see women with either 'caterpillar' or 'tadpole' eyebrows that look like something out of a Christmas Cracker 😂
use organic coconut oil and mix with equal parts castor oil
So castor oil and micro needling. (Are there any longterm studies what happens to your skin when you do the micro needling for decades ?) I mean I am sure that castor oil is safe, it has been used in the past.
I'm sorry but I'm not aware of any studies!
Try a one to one jojoba castor oil blend. Add frankincense about 10 to 20 drops.
I haven't had any improvement with castor oil
Wow
Please do more clothing styling videos.
Sorry, i thought you said it made your facial hair grow and then later said it didn't?
I think I said that it can make your facial hair grow but it didn't do that to me. It only made my eyebrow grow back and it didn't make my peach fuzz get any worse.
@@unblahyourself Thanks for clarifying that.

Anyone try this who’s prone to hormonal acne? I’m afraid I’d breakout badly.
I'd be interested in hearing too!
I'm no expert but I'd say that hormonal acne is more influenced by what is going on inside you (hormones, sleep, diet) than what you put on it... within reason, of course. I started getting hormonal acne with peri-menopause and found Evening Primrose Oil plus a couple of other skin/hair/nail supplements helped - without changing anything in my skin care regime. I put a lot more moisture on my face now without any breakouts, as losing oestrogen in peri/menopause does cause us to lose hydration everywhere. I drink coconut water for hydration rather than just water - high in electrolytes and potassium.
♥️👏
I'm a real person with a real eyebrow 😆🤣
@@JoannD73 finally!
I want to try caster oil long term but every time I do I get huge deep milia 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Aw it's definitely not for everyone. I'm sorry it doesn't work for you!
Yeah, I hear that!!
I just want to say that initially when I tried it I was breaking out and getting Milea. Especially around my eyes. However, Some people have suggested to put a small amount in your hand and then rub it together until it gets a bit hot or warm and then place it on your face. I have been doing this for the past two weeks and I’ve had no break outs. I am still leery of the Eye area however. I just have the slightest amount of my fingers and I lightly tap the area. I also use this really great face wash that really cleans my face well before applying.
So upsetting having to hear about castor oil 24 seven just like the coconut oil craze. Deathly allergic to castor oil gives me a terrible red itchy rash. Boooo 😢
Your eyebrow follows the line of your eye.
Castor oil destroyed my skin. Not good for everyone.
Ladies, PLEASE STOP shaving your face! Peach fuzz is lovely. Judiciously pluck dark strays if you’d like, but my gosh, stop the neuroses about peach fuzz.
I mostly do it because it's very distracting in my earring pictures but otherwise I don't really even think about it. Some people have a lot more than others. Mine's pretty tolerable.
