Castor oil, like coconut oil, is widely used, since it has antibacterial properties, that's why today I want to share a little information about this wonderful oil.

This essential oil comes from a plant called ricinus communis, which has a seed that is processed to make the oil, this plant was much used by the oldest civilizations, because they found in the oil medicinal properties, it should be noted that the Seed has a high percentage of toxicity, so it is advisable not to eat without being processed.

Now, it can be said that this oil has a variety of uses, since it is used as medicine and moisturizer, that is why in countries like Egypt it was so used.

Castor oil or also called castor oil has a host of uses such as:

• For the growth of the eyelashes.
• It is a good moisturizer for facial skin.
• It is used for the feet, since it is characterized by hydrating the parts that are dry.
• Because of its antibacterial properties, it is used in large quantities.
• On many occasions it has been used as a purgative but it is not very advisable, because in large quantities it can cause vomiting and diarrhea, likewise it is not recommended for people with intestinal problems, because it could cause unfavorable effects in the organism.

Over time civilization has given different uses to this oil, as this, not only has been used for the aforementioned, but also had different uses in industries as a motor lubricant for its properties, because this It is resistant to temperatures that common oils are not.
