How to Use:

• Skin:
  
• Castor Oil is a thick oil, so we suggest to mix a few drops with another carrier oil such as our De La Cruz Avocado Oil before putting on your face.
• For the body, whip a few drops with our De La Cruz Shea Butter if you need to give an extra moisture blast to dry skin.
• Apply the treatment on your skin and leave it on for a few minutes or overnight, depending on your moisture needs.
• Use a clean wet cloth to remove the oil.
• Hair & Scalp:
• Apply a few drops of the oil on your scalp, roots and your ends. We suggest to apply on damp hair rather than dry or wet hair for better absorption.
  
• If you have some time and want to enjoy maximum benefits of the oil, leave your treatment on for several hours or even overnight. You can wrap your hair in a towel if you don't want the oil to get sticky on your pillow or clothes. It will also help to better lock in moisture.
• Removing the Castor oil can be difficult as it is a thick oil. Pro-Tip: in the shower, massage your scalp with conditioner to help remove the oil and then shampoo as usual.
• Dry lips:
• A simple step for your chapped lips: rub a small amount of Castor oil on your lips and let it soak in for a few seconds before applying your favorite lip balm.
• Preferably taken on an empty stomach. May be taken with juice to improve the taste.
