The Healing Power Of Castor Oil

You may have heard about castor oil in passing — maybe for hair growth or bloating — but many women don’t realize just how powerful this ancient remedy really is. For centuries, it’s been used by healers, midwives, medicine women, and wellness practitioners for its deep, restorative properties.

It’s still a must-have in our Prettier & Healthier coaching we recommend this sacred oil to our clients for natural healing, hormonal balance, and deep self-care rituals

So why is castor oil so powerful?

Castor oil is rich in ricinoleic acid, a rare fatty acid known for its anti-inflammatory, detoxifying, and deeply penetrating properties. Unlike most oils, castor oil doesn’t just sit on the surface, it has the ability to penetrate the skin deeply and begin its magic.

• Breast Health: Castor oil is incredible for your breasts. It helps detox lymphatic buildup and supports healthy breast tissue. Just massage it in gently — especially around your cycle — and let it work its magic.

• Womb Health & Hormonal Balance: When applied over your womb, castor oil supports circulation, eases cramps, and helps bring balance to your hormones. It’s a sacred part of womb wellness rituals for a reason.

• Lymphatic Drainage: The lymphatic system doesn’t move on its own — it needs flow. Castor oil helps get things moving, reducing puffiness, congestion, and stagnation, especially when paired with a warm pack.

• Liver Health: Your liver is your body’s detox powerhouse. Applying castor oil over your liver can help relieve inflammation and support gentle detox. It’s one of the most underrated wellness practices, but so powerful

• Glowing Skin: Castor oil is deeply hydrating and anti-inflammatory. You can use it on dry patches, fine lines, or even as a nighttime oil for a radiant, dewy glow.

• Hair Growth (Lashes + Brows Too!): Massage it into your scalp, brows, or lashes to help stimulate growth and strengthen the hair follicle. Consistency is key — and the results speak for themselves

How to Use Castor Oil to Elevate Your Health & Beauty

Make it sacred, not just a step. Apply castor oil with intention — whether it’s massaging your womb before bed, applying it to your breasts during your cycle, or soaking in its glow on your face at night. For deeper detox, pair your oil with a castor oil pack (linked) and relax for 30–45 minutes. You can also use a few drops on your lashes, brows, or scalp for a nourishing growth treatment.
