Benefits of castor oil for face

When talking about skin and ways to care for it, castor oil is effective in adding the magic of beauty to your skin, and here are some benefits: ^[1]

• It helps to heal the inflamed skin as a result of sunburn , acne, or dryness faster, so all that is needed for this is to dip a cotton ball in castor oil and place it on the affected area for an hour, and then rinse it with water.
• It fights the signs of aging for the skin, because it enters the depths of the skin layers and stimulates the production of collagen, thus it helps moisturize the skin and increase its smoothness, thus delaying the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face and around the eyes as well.

Reduces the appearance of acne; Those who suffer from acne stay away from applying any oil to the skin, but this belief is wrong if it relates to castor oil. Because it is rich in Ricinoleic Acid, which fights the bacteria that cause acne.

• Moisturizes the skin, increases its smoothness and treats it from dryness.
• Helps hide skin blemishes and scars when used regularly and continuously; This is because it is rich in fatty acids that penetrate the skin layers and reach the scars, stimulating the emergence of a new layer of skin in that area.
• Prevents the appearance of white lines or stretch marks caused by stretching of the skin, especially during pregnancy; Because, as we said, it is rich in fatty acids, so when used in the last two months of pregnancy, it will help prevent white lines.
• It helps purify the skin from dark spots, as it is recommended by dermatologists because it unifies the color of the skin, and gets rid of any unwanted dark spots.
