Apparently the molecule of castor oil is almost identical to a prostaglandin, which is a cell signaler/hormone in the body. This is why it does such incredible work.
That's really interesting! And makes more sense now. Thanks x
that's interesting as I have too much prostaglandin...? 🤷♀️
Thanks! Great info!
@@nichellehowellprostaglandins refer to a group of hormone-like, biologically active endogenous chemicals that do various things inside the body by binding to different receptors. For example, bimaprost in Latisse reduces eye pressure, increases eyelash length, and darkens skin (maybe permanently). Castor oil doesn't darken skin, latisse doesn't induce labor or bowel movement. Prostaglandins are unique.
Use it nightly on face, neck, chest and belly button. Helps all skin issues and helps sleep too. Has improved my skin beyond what retin A can do.
That's awesome! I'm so happy to hear how it helps others! x
Do you leave it on? I wash my face with castor oil, wiping it off with a hot rag. Maybe I need to leave some on. 🤷♀️
@@MelissaJean79 I leave it on. Apply about 2 hours before bed. I also sleep with eye mask. Benefit so great I can’t worry about pillow case or sheets or pajamas getting a few stains.
How long did it take to work?
Just curious, why the belly button?
Castor oil has taken care of my raw lips and chapped nose from respiratory illness in just 2 days. I lost 30 pounds a year ago and started using equal parts castor oil and rose hip oil with drops of frankincense for my face neck and chest. My skin looks younger than a decade ago. It helped shrink and smooth out my skin.
Oh wow that's amazing Deana! Thanks so much for sharing! x
Ive' never heard of frankincense and rose hips.. Must try this
That's amazing! Thanks for sharing. How long did it take to see results on your face?
@@maranathaacts1327 it kind of snuck up on me. Pictures at Thanksgiving showed the weight loss. Spring Break pictures I saw how much my skin had improved. I also did lymphatic massage
Only two weeks!! It really shocked me!@@maranathaacts1327
Thank you for the video. Sorry so many people have rude comments . Silly people should value honest non sponsored sharing of information.
Thank you for being so kind!!! x
I had a crusty mole. On my back. Got it checked by a dermatologist to be sure it’s not cancer. I put castor oil on it evening and morning and it has shrunk right down. Not gone, but much improved. I put it on my lids, lashes and brows at night and they are much improved. They look fresh and younger and my chronic dry eye is much improved so I only need drops a few times a day instead of ten times a day. Since I already had it on my fingers, I would rub it on my cuticles and nails automatically. Now I have long nails with no breakage for the first time since menopause. Good stuff. Thinking I now have to try it on my stomach for sleep.
That's fantastic! I'm always delighted to hear how it works for other people! Thank you for sharing x
African American woman, 36, oily acne prone skin….i also have extremely dry sensitive eye and eye area. Castor oil has been the single best thing for my entire face…it’s done more for my dark marks than retinol (i actually think retinol and castor are a perfect pair) i apply all over my body for various reasons…but it’s done more for my face in months than products I’ve used for years. So many moisturizers and serums and creams are collecting dust (eyelash and eye cream included) bc i use this twice a day in winter and once a day in warmer months. If you have no negative reaction (clogged pores) i highly recommend adding to ur routine!
Michelle, that's amazing! Thank you so much for sharing. I know what you mean about other creams collecting dust. In the evening, I'll look at some of my other night creams but then I'll choose the castor oil lol!! xx
Derm on UA-cam says castor will not clog pores and you can apply liberally
Im so grateful for castor oil! When i was younger I used to get plantar warts on my feet that would grow deep into my foot and by applying castor oil on them they just disappeared, painlessly. I used to have a doctor either burn or freeze the warta off before and it was so painful and would cause scarring. Castor oil seems to prevent scarring as it does its work which is another miracle it performs.
WOW that's amazing, Sarah! I can only imagine how much of a relief that must have been for you! It truly is a miracle worker! x
Hi there! Can I get your exact process? I have a family member with this problem.
@@tlc2741 all I did was soak a small piece of cotton ball with castor oil and then put it on the wart, cover with a bandaid and I left it on as long as possible. Then I'd change it every other day or when the bandaid fell off. The wart disappeared within a couple weeks from what I remember. It was a quick and painless process. Hope it helps!!
Hi Sarah, I had them all over the bottom of my feet as a young teen and my dad would scrape them until they would bleed and then put acid and bandages on before bed. In the morning I would wash my feet off and wait until that night to repeat the process. It was terrible! So thankful for my dad who faced this awful job every night🙏❤️I still have one wart that never completely went away so I’m going to try the castor oil. Praying it finally rids me of this last one. Thank you!
@@starryluma1806sorry to hear you had to go through that pain. Sounds terrible! I really think the castor oil will get rid of the warta because that's one of the things it's known to do well and worked for me for more than one plantar wart on the bottom of my feet.
Rub it into your eyelashes and eye brows. It works wonders for thinning hair!
Definitely need that right now! Thanks!
I have been using it daily all over. My dry skin is gone and I feel like it helped the crepey skin over my knees. For my body I mix it 50/50 with black seed oil (amazing in its own way). On my face, straight up castor oil. I use it in my hair and it worked on a toenail that had a touch of fungus.
Prophet Muhammad PBUH said 'Black seed is a cure for all diseases, except death'
Thanks for sharing! I had never heard of black seed oil until I read my comments, but I shall have to look into it! x
@@shab152sk Cool!
Your accent is lovely! I could listen to you speak all day!🥰
You're very sweet. Thank you!
If you did an audiobook, I’d buy it just to hear you talk
Suzy, put your castor oil in a glass jar, you can stick the jar in a black sock or wrap with dark paper to protect it from the light, you really want to get it out of the plastic right away. Keep on experimenting, if you think it, try it. Great stuff castor oil.
Thanks for the tip! I will definitely do that...I'll also continue to experiment! :)
@@SuzyTurnerYou have to wonder how long it sat in a warehouse, possibly in warmer weather, in a plastic bottle? Since castor oil is a carrier oil too I would be scared to use it from a plastic bottle. You would essentially be carrying plastics in thru your skin. Again…scary. Castor oil is an amazing thing. That’s great that it got rid of your sunspot!
I have been going for monthly facial peels for melasma for almost a year now and, other than feeling pampered, there has been absolutely zero changes in the discolouration! I know all the benefits of castor oil since a Naturopathic Doctor told me to do castor oil liver packs (for heavy menstrual cycles and detoxification) about it years ago but I was just never consistent enough. Well, after hearing your testimony, I will definitely be more consistent in using it daily especially now that it’s winter here in Canada and the dry weather wreaks havoc on my skin. Thank you for sharing, I always love it when “regular folks” share what worked for them especially because they have nothing to gain nor are they selling anything.
I'm sorry your monthly peels haven't made any difference to your skin but at least, as you said, you got some serious pampering! I really hope the castor oil helps you though. I must say I envy you living in Canada! My husband and I have visited a couple of times and absolutely love it there...it's such a beautiful country. We even thought about moving there at one point! x
Waist ! You Can detox your liver by applying castor oil packs AT night ?
That's what I've heard. I drink detox tea daily (brewed along with a ginger tea, and I add honey), so I don't think I need it to detox my liver. But, the packs can also get your liver to function more on the healthy biological clock and I need it for that.
When you use it to help the biological clock of the liver, then that promotes the natural detox, healing, etc., processes which happen when we sleep. The purification of the liver is tied to the cycle of the kidneys, so that's part of it, too. It helps you to sleep more efficiently and healthily.
I haven't ordered my supplies yet, but, I'm going to use tshirt fabric cloths, plus clear flexible silicone placemats, plus wide medical tape. Some people are using saran wrap wrapped around the midsection to hold the castor oil pack in place, but since castor oil is so very powerful, I caution against using the toxic saran wrap, as the toxins will be absorbed by the castor oil and transferred to the body.
I am only mentioning the info about the supplies, because it's a good idea to do it the right way, and it doesn't make sense to detox the liver with toxic saran wrap.
If you do not have well water, you can try a shower water filter for the chemicals. When we moved out of the city, my skin became excellent. If I visit a city (with tap water), my skin gets dry within a few showers.
Are you being consistent now? Hi from Edmonton : )
That’s truly incredible! Thanks for sharing, can’t wait to try it.
You are so welcome, Ashley! x
Thank you so much for sharing ❤️
I've just gotten a bottle and can't wait to try it !
You're very welcome! I hope it helps you too x
Thank you for sharing this - and I loved the way you shared it, just giving your experience. Very interesting - especially from a certain age on....
Alexandra, thank you so much for your kind words! It means a lot! x
There was a comment on your background for this video but I have the opposite opinion. I rather like it. It is normal and relatable. Thank you for this helpful info.
That's so nice of you to say! Thank you! x
This is so helpful, thank you! And I love your accent.
Yay! Thank you! You're so sweet! x
Thank you for this post! I have this problem on my skin too
You're so welcome! I hope castor oil helps! x
Loved this information. Thank you for sharing your experience. Btw, I thought the background was fine.
Oh thank you so much! x
Thanks for sharing, I'll definitely try that!
My pleasure, Sara! I hope it helps you too! x
Thank you for sharing your experience. Good to know the benefits of Castor Oil.
You're welcome! x
To the point. Thank you for the advice have to try it.
You're very welcome! And thank you! x
Wow, thank you very much, will definitely have to do this! If I can get rid of my sun spots without the painful and expensive dermatologist visits (which you also have to wait for and spent your time on), I'm all over it!
You're very welcome! I hope it works for you x
Oh my goodness, I'm definitely trying this!
I hope it helps you like it helped me! x
Thank you and con gratulation for your healthy skin ❤
You're very welcome! And thank YOU for saying such kind words ❤️
Thank you very much from France .I will try for sure !
You're very welcome! I hope it works for you. Oooh France? Such a beautiful country! x
I thought it was just my imagination, but I found that doing a castor oil pack near my womb helped me sleep more soundly too.😴Thank you for sharing your experience, simultaneously validating mine! Was actually loving the hair. 💖
It's kind of weird, isn't it? That something like a vegetable oil can help us sleep better! I'm glad you had the same experience because I did think it was odd! And thank you for being so kind about my hair!! x
Wow! Great information 👍 I will try this.
Thank you so much. I hope it works for you too! x
You should look into it. That stuff works on SOO much.❤
It's amazing! xx
One plastic surgeon on UA-cam said caster oil helps plump you're lips 💋 I started using it at night as a moisturizer.
Oooh I shall have to try that! Thanks Cheryl!
You mean YOUR lips.
@@vericacvetkovic9093sometimes it’s a YT correction error.
Hello from Florida - Heritage Store sells C. Oil in a hand held roll on bottle. Makes easier to apply over a small area- like those antiperspirant applicators. Thank you for posting your experience! ❤ 5:35
You're very welcome! And that sounds like such a good idea to have it in a roll on bottle! x
I have the same problem. Got this sun spot for years on my cheek! I will try this out. Thanks for making the video 😊🙏🏼
My pleasure! I hope it works for you too. I suggest rubbing it in morning and night. Mine scabbed over a little bit, and I would gently rub it to loosen the scab and after a couple of weeks, it was completely gone!
Yes Thank you for posting exactly what you did 🎉🎉
My pleasure, Jodi!@@jodi578
when you gave your testimony i remembered i had sun damage too. So I looked and yes it is gone! i also have a scar on my face from body surfing as a child and it is not as pronounced. I have some sun damage on my decolletage so Im going to treat it and see.
It's amazing, isn 't it?! I hope it helps the sun damage. I have so much sun damage...I need to slather some more oil on there too!
Thank you for sharing with us I recently started educating myself on castor oil it's a pretty amazing oil with so many health benefits.
You're very welcome! It is amazing, isn't it? I just love it! x
Great video. Have been thinking about buying castor oil for a while. I've just ordered it and will give you an update.
That's great! I hope it works for you! x
Thank you! I have been using this on my sunspots going on three weeks right now and also on my face and neck day and night❤
You are so welcome! How's it going? Are you noticing a difference? I hope it's helping you too! x
@@SuzyTurner I am absolutely loving it on my skin!!!! and yes, I am noticing some spots that are fading👏👏
That's absolutely brilliant!!! YAY!!@@WigsGlam
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS ❤
You are so welcome! x
Nice that it’s gone.. I’ve used for years with no changes in sunspots, but my lashes grew and skin is extremely hydrated.
When your friend told you to have it looked at, probably should have sent you to check it “just in case@ before wasting valuable time if it was skin cancer. Time is your enemy. I have had 3 skin cancers removed in the last few years and my dermatologist is really cranky if I do a “wait and see”. Twice the cancer appeared as just a patch of flaky skin.. no mole, no discoloration. The last one was on the tip of my nose. I had had a cold, so I assumed that it was just dry skin from blowing my nose so much. But after a few weeks, I had it looked at and biopsied. Squamous cell carcinoma. MOHS surgery, plastic surgery for this very deep cancer that looked like nothing. Before you ignore and self treat a discoloration or mole, have it checked by a specialist. My regular MD said some on my temple was nothing, but it too was squamous cell needing immediate surgery.
Long diatribe to say please don’t treat spots or anything casually unless you have them checked…especially if you have ever had a sunburn or exposure. Treating symptoms could waste valuable time.
Edit: if you still see anything, I would get it looked at-just an abundance of caution. Believe me, the scars and possible spread is not worth ignoring
Good point. I was going to make a similar comment. "Sun spots" are not painful or tender. They are just discoloured areas.
Great comment I was thinking the same thing as she was talking. It concerned me.
@@johannaholmgren8088 and neither is cancer! I had no pain and no alarming color.. just skin flakes. Skin cancer is sneaky and needs a dermatologist. It doesn’t always appear as a big blob or bleeding. Plus they can be painless.
@@Barb6106 I know. It often isn't painless. That doesn't mean it is never painless. I was a nurse with 40 years experience on surgical wards. Sunspots, however, ARE always painless. They are just large freckles, essentially. You can't really ignore anything that bleeds, appears unusual in some way (shape, color, etc) or is painful. It may have been nothing. That doesn't mean it is nothing, better to be sure. Get it checked.
@@johannaholmgren8088 that is EXACTLY what I said.
I will try this! My first spot showed up when I was 27, I'm now 47. Every time I look all I have seen for 20 years is that spot. Thank you for this suggestion.
I knew the feeling! I really hope this helps for you too! x
Thanks! I'm giving it a try.
You're welcome! I hope it helps you x
I have one in the exact same spot and have not been able to get rid of it. I will start tonight with castor oil. Thanks for sharing your experience!
My pleasure! I hope it helps you like it worked for me! x
It works on basal cell carcinoma, too.
did your dermatologist tell you that?
I had skin cancer on my face, and I was horrified with my dermatologist, because she was not helping. I will spare you the details, but please trust me on that.
So, I was on my own, and I had to do something. I didn't know about castor oil back then, but I did know I didn't have basal cell carcinoma. I had a less dangerous type, which shows up, goes away, comes back again and so forth, back and forth. Long story short, I decided to burn it away with bleach and qtips.
The results were far better than I imagined! One, hardly any pain at all, --I didn't even have to think about it. Two, it freaking worked!!! The cancer was all gone and has not come back, and it's been three years!!! Three, it was the epitome of cheap and easy. I didn't even used bandaids or products afterwards. Four, no scar!!! I wasn't expecting that, but am thrilled by it.
I def would have used castor oil instead, if I had known about it, because it has so many other benefits in general.
It's really good to know it works on basal cell carcinoma, too!!! I'm putting it on every skin thing that I don't like right now, and so far I've had really great results with a shallow wart right under my lashline, and also the red spots which appear because the capillaries burst. My red spots started fading after the very first application, and I'm hooked on castor oil now, lol!!!
I would like to think it helps but I can't really comment either way! Thanks for sharing x
Good to know as I have basal cell carcinoma…thank you for that information!
I had very light eyebrows and put the oil every night and now it’s fuller and darker but you must be consistent!
Also eyelashes same thing got thicker after 4 months but lengthening may take longer so I’m still at it! I apply both areas with cotton buds 2 separate ones before bed and before skin care routine so it doesn’t contaminate x I noticed it reduced my floaters as a side effect!
Wow that's awesome! Thanks for the tips! x
Not sure what I had intended to write but thank you for your video. I started using castor oil on a mole for the past three weeks and it has shrunk!
I think your comment got cur short!
I only buy it in glass, as you mentioned. I heard that it’s drawing power is so strong that it actually look leaches from the plastic.
I've heard something like that too! x
That’s awesome. I’ve been using it on my face for sun spots hoping to see them go
Fingers crossed it works for you too! x
I’ve just bought castor oil for a few things that have been bothering me. Can’t wait to see results. So far I personally love the thickness of the oil in this cold dry weather. FYI, I’m a Suzy too. 😊
Lovely to meet a fellow Suzy 😊. And I hope the castor oil works for you too. Since posting this video, I slather it on my face almost every night lol!! And I've had so many lovely comments suggesting other ways I can try too! Good luck x
Hello again! Update; I’ve only been using it for 5 days… slathering on my face and neck.. but it has drastically faded an ugly dark spot on my hand! I’m thrilled with that! Hooray! My hands feel wonderful from it. I’m in a harsh winter climate which is awful for the skin.
😊
That's fantastic! YAY! x@@sclose3418
That’s great I need to do this too❤️
Let me know how it goes, Annie!
On my thighs, I have flourishes of red spots from broken capillaries. I used castor oil on them yesterday and saw them fading with the first use!!! So I applied it 4x over the whole day, and they're almost gone now!!! I haven't used it yet today, but I know that I just need a few more uses and I'm done!!! I also have psoriasis and am using it for that. I have always had skin problems (pillar keritonitis, red "strawberry" spots on legs from shaving [supposedly], etc.), and it's really nice to know about such a simple and effective remedy!!
WOW that's fantastic! I've got lots of broken capillaries too and I never thought to try the castor oil. I'm definitely going to try that! Thanks so much for the tip!! x
@@SuzyTurner Of course!! You got the ball rolling, for me and a lot of other people, so thank you for that!!
You're so sweet! Thank you xx@@cozycoffee3831
Thank you Suzy ..I have many age spots Ive ordered some ❤
You are so welcome! I really hope it helps you too x
Just remember if you have an abnormal skin spot of any kind and it hurts, go get it checked by a doctor/dermatologist because that can be a warning sign of cancer.
John 3:16-18❤
Good advice! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing, I will try.i have serious freckles on my face for years 😊 ...
Greetings from Malaysia
You’re welcome 😊. I don't know if it will help freckles....although freckles are super cute!!
THANK YOU!
I hope it helps you too!
It takes away warts too. Put on wart, cover with tape. If it gets wet- redo. keep it dry of water. (the only moisture should be from the oil) It takes about a week.
WOW thanks for sharing Judi! That's amazing. I wish I'd have known that thirty years ago...I had a wart on my finger that was there for so long until my boyfriend at the time (now my husband of 25 years lol) told me an old wives tale to rub the wart with a piece of meat (yes, really!) and bury it in the ground (!). I did it for a laugh and lo and behold, the wart soon disappeared!! I've never quite gotten over that 😱🫣😆x
Suzy Turner - I have sunspots all over me and had 13 months of Retina-A and two expensive laser treatments with NO effect. Oh god, I hope you are telling the truth. I will increase my frequency. Thanks.
I hope it helps you, Alyssa, although since sharing this video, I have been told that it wasn't an actual sunspot but something called seborrheic keratosis which I have googled and it did look a lot like that. But try it...it might work for you! x
Thanks for sharing your experience Suzy. A few months ago when I came across the Queen of the thrones castor oil pack videos on UA-cam, I went ahead and purchased the pack and the organic castor oil, mainly because I was hoping it to help with my insomnia, hormonal problems and a 2 year burnout. While using the pack every night, I was sleeping a little bit better for the first 3 weeks and then the insomnia kicked in again and over the next 3 weeks wearing the pack I couldn’t sleep at all until it was time to throw away the old pack. Also the sunspots on my abdomen area that were in contact with the castor oil pack every day for 12-14 hours a day didn’t fade away nor disappeared. Now I am using the castor oil only for my morning oil pulling routine. Oh well, I guess everybody is different and luckily the oil isn’t too expensive to experiment with.
I’m new with this too and I have read tho that hexaine free, glass bottle, and cold pressed produces the best results. Maybe try it w all that one more time as you may be more resistant to anything but that combo. 🤷🏼♀️
Also I know many people utilize bandaids of various sizes and it’s easier over the belly button that way too. -Fresh every time.
I'm sorry you haven't had much of a result with the castor oil, Tania.
Are you a similar age to me? I'm 48 and going through peri-menopause so I can totally understand about the hormonal problems and insomnia! It's just awful :(. I'm a strong believer in the power of meditation for healing and sleeping, etc. Is that something you've tried? I really hope you find what works for you soon xx
That’s the brand I use now - Queen of Thrones! I’ve used it for helping my eyelashes and eyebrows grow thicker and it really works great as well as in my belly button but now I’m going to try it on a dark spot. I have instead of getting the usual laser treatments. Thanks for the video!
That bandaid over the bellybutton tip is GOLD! ⭐️🙌🏻💜
Thank You for sharing!
My pleasure! x
If it was raised on the skin at all it was a keratosis. A sunspot in the skin is hyperpigmentation and i dont know how well it would work for that but still worth getting and trying. Has many other benefits.
Yes it was raised on the skin, Tina! And yes it's always worth trying x
Great news thank you for sharing
You're welcome! x
Its great on wrinkles and scars too!
I'm trying it out on the wrinkles lol, but I haven't tried it on scars yet! Thanks for the tip!
Thank you!!!! 💚
You're welcome! x
❤amazing stuff love it thank you..eye lash growth big time
It really is! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing 🙏❤
My pleasure! I just hope it helps other people too x
Suzy, I just found your video by chance, and I love your content! I will definitely try the castor oil for my sun spots - I’ve been rather wary of it until now because it causes hair growth, and I feared it could turn my face into Chewbacca. Well, you have tried and you’re still very beautiful, so it gives me some courage. I will subscribe and be looking forward to seeing more of your videos. ❤️
You are so very sweet! Thank you so much! You did make me laugh at your Chewbacca comment LOL! Having dark hair myself, I never even thought about that on my face and I haven't noticed any facial hair so you should be good to go!!! xx
diamondsgal76---- People get the wrong idea when they hear castor oil helps hair growth. You do not need to worry about that. It does help with head hair which is what it is famous for. I have used castor oil for years and it is a staple for me. I work with animals and get scratched, bit, etc. I use castor oil to help heal. I haven't used any OTC items for years as this has been my go to. Give it a try. Even cooking burns, put it on right away, do not wrap. So far it has been great for that also. Just so much to use it for. Have fun learning.
@@user-pp4wb6ub2o Thank you so much for the info, I went ahead and bought a good quality one. I’ve only heard good things about it, but I am a bit worried it might stimulate the hairs on my chin and upper lip. Fingers crossed it won’t🤞🏻
@@diamondsgal76 I have been using on face for years and speaking for myself, I have not had a problem with that, every one is different. I like to read the reviews of others to see what they think and as of yet, of the reviews I have read I have not read anyone saying they had that kind of problem. On the scalp? Yes! And that can be a good thing. If it does happen discontinue use in that area. If your not used to it you also may want to take a patch test for each new area you intend to use it. I say each area as different skin areas are just that, different. Good luck on your journey, I don't think you will be disappointed, so many uses for it :)
@@diamondsgal76
I'm also wondering if it will make the chin and upper lip hair grow more😊
I love a really honest review. So happy to see you smiling with your success.
That's very kind of you to say! Thank you so much! x
It works to help regrow thinning eyebrows and eyelashes too.
Yes, I keep hearing that. I'm trying it out! x
Thank you, I have a huge dark sun spot that I always have to cover with makeup, I hope it works for me. Apparently, it works for hair growth too.
Yes I've heard that too! I hope it helps your sun spot! x
Did it work for you?
I think her issue was a wart type growth. It became sore before disappearing. Mine is pigmentation, bleaching, or laser would lighten it, I may pursue that.

Love castor oil its like magic 💫
It really is, Sandy! x
I was actually thinking you hair looks really cool 😎
You're so sweet! Thank you! x
Trying it tonight!
I hope it helps, Jodie! x
Fantastic video thank you🙌🏻 So my amazing experience with Castor Oil actually happened by accident🤷🏼♀️ after I started using it for sparse eyebrows/eyelashes I noticed my PeriMenopausal dry eye has practically cleared up🥳🤷🏼♀️ Also its made a huge difference to an Astigmatism causing floaters being greatly reduced too🤷🏼♀️🥳🙌🏻 Oh and my eyebrows/eyelashes are darker and thicker too🥳🥳 I’ve also heard it can help with Cataracts, however, I cannot attest to his! Amazed of the benefits is an understatement tbh🤷🏼♀️🙌🏻🥳
Thank you so much, Nicola! I have an astigmatism too...I must try it for my eyes! x
@@SuzyTurner I actually thought I was imagining it tbh🤷🏼♀️🤣 but no it’s definitely helped mine so I’m hoping it helps yours too🤞🏻💞
Thanks Nicola! @@nicolabray2732 🤗
Believe it does help with cataracts. Fellow patient at an eye clinic started using it after been told the cost of an op for cataracts. Apparently, within 3 weeks cataracts had gone.
@@kathydean6491I would think that for it to help cataracts, you would have to put it in your eye, and I definitely wouldn't do that.
Makes your eyelashes and eyebrows longer and thicker too.
I think it's just an amazing all-round natural product, isn't it?!
Sure is Suzy. ❤
I’m new to castor oil too. I love it as a lip balm.
It's so good for that too! I've been using it as a lip balm for a little while as well x
Its great for aches and pains also!!! Rub some on my knees, and lower back, and achy hands and hips, works wonders!!! I also oil.pull with, just don't swallow it!!! Also great for hair growth!!!
Great tip! I've never tried oil pulling but I'm intrigued!
Just CO for the oil pulling or something with it? Do you think it’s better than other things for oil pulling?
@eyeshalfwayopeneyeshalfway2603 yesss!!! I use only co or coconut oil for oil pulling!!!
If it’s organic food grade oil you can swallow it. It is widely known for cleansing properties, if you have constipation that’s what you swallow - a teaspoon of this oil, mix it with some yogurt and in a few hours you’ll be sitting on the “throne”.
It only takes a minute or 2 to oil pull with castor oil. Faster than coconut oil, and works pretty good too
That looks like a small cherry angioma.... the flat brownish discolored spots (not raised) are sunspots.
I did wonder what it was called. Thank you for the insight! x
Cherry angiomas are red, as the name implies, due to small blood vessels. The brown, dry, raised spots are more likely to be seborrheic keratoses. I've had both myself.
Thank you for clarifying! x@@mrychards6682
I have quite a few of the brown, raised spots that look like candle wax drips, they are seborrheic keratoses. They can be itchy, a bit flaky, crusty and are unsightly. If Castor oil worked on the sun spot you had, I wonder if it would also work to remove the keratoses.
I live in a tropical area, where skin fungus is a problem due to humidity. The skin fungus causes light or dark pigmentation marks on the skin due to moisture allowing skin fungus to grow. The fungus itself is invisible, you just see the effect - discolouration of the skin. The medical treatment here is Canesten cream - same cream used for thrush. And it does eliminate the marks (3x a day for 4 days or so). I have found that putting Canesten on cuts or mosquito bites straight away stops the fungus and prevents the white dots forming on the skin that are caused by fungus entering via mosquito bites. I've also used Canesten for dark marks by the mouth and under the eyes, with success. I'm now trying castor oil, mixed with hand cream and adding a few drops of cinnamon oil (caution: cinnamon oil can burn, don't use on face and never use neat, it's way too strong) and the light and dark blotches on my arms are much improved (melanin and lack of melanin). I was looking for an alternative to Canesten as it's rather expensive, a tiny tube, and it's 'strong medicine'. Interested to know if anyone else has found the same thing. I started using cinnamon oil because I noticed that when making cinnamon flavoured kombucha, it totally cleared the kombucha 'mother' to become white, whereas normally, the mother is blotched with brown patches, that are apparently, fungus or yeast.
You can simple soak your feet in warm water mixed with some apple cider vinegar for your fungus. No need of anything else soak it once or twice thats it.
I don't know if my info helps, but hopefully it helps a little.
I somehow developed a yeast (thrush) infection on the front of my neck, in the crease. I tried everything under the sun to get ride of it, but everything made it worse, especially tea tree oil and also bleach. I was willing to suffer the effects of the caustic treatments, as long as the yeast was killed. But, no, my skin suffered and the yeast persisted. Apparently yeast actually fights back (a dermatologist said that), and it will overproduce when attacked. So, you have to go slow and be sneaky. That said, the only, only, only thing I've had success with is by wiping it with ACV on a cotton ball once or twice a day. And at that, I've been doing this for a year, and I have zero symptoms, except that after wiping down with the cotton ball, the skin in the crease of my neck reddens, while the other skin is unaffected by the ACV. Which, to me, means that the affected skin is slightly compromised due to the yeast. So, I think the yeast is still there, but a small quantity of the super resilient ones. Anyway, I'm sharing this info because ACV is cheap and sold at the grocery store. I accidentally got rid of a skin tag on my neck by using it, so there's that, too. I started using castor oil on it yesterday, because it's anti-fungal like the tea tree oil, but castor oil is definitely not caustic like tea tree oil, so I hope the combo of castor oil and ACV does the trick to 100% rid my neck of the very stubborn yeast.
Other than that, I wanted to say that I had skin cancer on my face. I had it removed with surgery, but nearby to that spot, a new spot formed, and it was definitely skin cancer, because this particular type has the behavior of appearing, then disappearing, the appearing again, and so forth. That's what was happening, it had that telltale appearing and disappearing. So, back to the dermatologist and she said it was not cancer. I was truly devastated by her saying that, because the first thing I thought was that she was promoting/farming cancer in me, to increase profits for her clinic with surgery that would be needed when it got bigger. Later, I also realized that just to be safe, she could have frozen it off with a device in her office, or removed it with a punch biopsy in her office, and she did neither of these easy procedures.
But, I was on my own and I had to do something.
So, since I heard that some cancers are cause by fungi, and since I was already using salicylic acid to get rid of skin dots (anything I didn't like, I used salicylic acid to dissolve it away), I figured that instead of using acid on my cancer, I can use the opposite of acid, which is chemically "basic," the most common of which is bleach. And bleach kills fungi, so if my cancer was caused by fungi, then that would be addressed with the bleach.
So, I used qtips to burn away the cancer until it was gone. And wow, it barely stung at all, it was very mild. I super rinsed it all away, and then did nothing, no bandaids, no products. And, my cancer is completely gone, and it's been three years now!!! No scar either!!! It was a very, very good choice!!
So, anyway, I just wanted to say that bleach seems to be a good idea if used in a pinpoint area, as opposed to wiping it across broadly. If you wipe it across broadly, it will destroy your skin's natural, protective chemical barrier. Plus, you have to super rinse it all away, so that nothing lingers from the spot treatment, which can also harm the skins natural protective chemical barrier.
Castor oil is anti-fungal and super healthful, so I would definitely try that. I have light skin and I applied it on my stomach just lightly as a skin oil, to see if it would help a little like the castor oil packs applied to the stomach .... and it immediately turned my skin pinkish ----showing that it really does increase circulation and healing. I trust it to help a lot of things!!
That's really interesting...I've never used Canesten cream for anything but it's horrible when the only treatment is expensive, isn't it? I really hope the castor oil helps for you instead, as it is relatively inexpensive. Thanks so much for sharing x
Apple cider vinegar is another of my favourite things! x
WOW thanks so much for sharing. Can you tell me what ACV is?? x
I use black seed oil in the same way. It takes longer, but works much the same
I've not heard of that, thank you for sharing! x
I believe what you saying. My daughter has a bruise in the neck and I just put 2 or 3 times and we sow amazing cleansing in the area it's just gone, and if it wasn't me doing it I would not believe. Castor oil is a devine gift to the human being, God knows what he gave us. Plus I am using it for mouth wash and it's doing amazing to my teeth. It grows my hair a lot, my skin is not dry anymore, totally agree it's gooood😂🎉
How do you use it as a mouth wash and woukd it help with gums also?
That's amazing! I never thought to try it as a mouth wash but perhaps I will do now. Thanks for sharing! x
@@SuzyTurnerit’s called oil pulling (for dental health). I’ve heard you can do it with coconut oil or castor oil. Obviously, I think castor oil would be the better oil to use😊
How is castor oil helping your teeth? Thanks.
Mabe, you do a test on your chest. Before and after pictures. Thanks for the videos😊
You're welcome
Thanks.
You're welcome!
Got some sun spots on my nose. Will try it out. Thanks
Hope you like it, and that it helps! Although since posting this video, it's become clear the spot I had on my forehead wasn't actually a sunspot, but something called seborrheic keratosis. But it's an all round brilliant natural product for skin and hair xx
thanks so much
You're welcome! x
Ty
You're welcome! x
I had a "sunspot" or "liver spot" on the back of my hand and after a week it was almost gone.
That's brilliant! I love this castor oil...it's amazing stuff!
Had a wart on my neck 2 weeks later starting to crumble bit by bit completely gone no scar also round eyes at night and face helps for sinus congestion ❤
That's exactly how it worked for me...it crumbled bit by bit! Thanks for sharing x
Amazing
My thoughts exactly!
I put it in my eyes at night. It has helped my dry eyes so much. Significantly reduced the floaters as well. Funny you mentioned getting a good night of sleep. When I put it in my eyes, I get a good night sleep.
Gosh I would never have thought to do that, Belinda! I suffer with dry eyes sometimes and my eyesight has worsened so much the past year or two. Maybe I should try it too? Thanks for the idea 😘
People say you can put in ON and around your eyes/eyelids and that will also get absorbed into the eyes for dryness as well as helping to induce sleep too.
Better to buy castor eye drops that are sterile if you use in eyes according to dr o watched yesterday
I heard if you put in your eyes it can be damaging to the retina
@belindaayewoh437 you use it as eye drops??? How many drops? How often? Thanks Belinda😀
I had experienced that same joy almost in the same spot on my forehead, though my spot was practically the same color as my skin. Even though it was harder for other to see, I knew it was there. I also had another smaller one in the 1 o'clock position spaced next to that other one, both similar and both moved in way/ time down and to the left of my forehead. I had been paying attention to the both for some years now. Never did they darken or grow, just moved more and more away from my hair line. The larger one was actually on my hair line when it all started some years ago. I found it very fascination how they moved
Caster oil made them both go away!
Methylene Blue made an old black head hole in the very center of my forehead go away! After months of taking just a drop a day in my morning water, I had seen that final puss/ oils get pushed out, the whole healed up and you can't see any evidence of original issue. (note that the Methylene blue didn't "seem" to affect the spots mentioned above.)
I love them both!!
That's amazing! So weird how they moved across your face...but I'm so happy that you had the same results as me! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment x
❤thank you
You're welcome!
It was more likely a wart which is fairly easy to get rid of. Unlikely to be a sunspot
I've had warts before so I don't think it was one of those, but yes it might not have been a sunspot. I just did a bit of googling and I think actually it might have been a 'seborrheic keratosis'. Thanks for taking the time to comment, Kimmy!
Warts are not that dark, though, plus it was in a spot in which warts are rare. Just saying.
Thank you I have a sun spot I will try
You're welcome! Fingers crossed it works for you too! x
I have been using castor oil on a huge scar on my stomach. It has shrunk it down considerably. They say to use heat to help the castor oil work better, but I haven't tried it yet. I have been using castor oil on my brown spots on my face and some have lightened and some no changes.
Thanks for sharing! It's amazing how it works for so many different things, isn't it? x
I would like to ask You what do you use on your skin for not having any naso labial or forehead wrinkles?
lol the wrinkles are coming! As for the products I use...I tend to use all kinds of creams, whatever I can get my hands on! Lately, I've actually been using castor oil all over my face in the evenings. Mornings, any kind of day cream but I rarely use any that are expensive. My favourites are from Olay but I can't always get them x
Thank you for sharing lovely. I started using castor oil on my eye area for dark circles and on my face. Hopefully it will help with my corner dark circles
My pleasure, Silvana! I hope it works for your dark circles. It really is a wonder oil! x
I don’t think it was a sun spot if it hurt. I’ve had many sun spots that I get lasered out and they are flat and like a large freckle. That being said, I’m using castor oil packs and castor oil from Queen of Thrones and will put some on face and any sun spots that pop up.
You're right, Cortney. It turned out to be something called seborrheic keratosis. I hope the castor oil works for you! x
Im using it as drops in my dogs eyes for cataracts. I wish I'd used it for mine instead of having surgery. Now left with serious dry eyes. Might try the caster oil goop into my eyes for that now.
I hadn't thought about using it in my dog's eyes...she's starting to get cataracts too! Must check that out!
I use castor oil in my eyes at night for dry eyes and floaters. Please make sure you use Cold pressed, organic, and hexane free castor.
As I said, stay away from doctors
Please be careful doing this in your eyes. If you use castor oil in the eyes it should be a pharmacy sterile grade.
Make sure it is sterile and made to use in the eye. You don’t want a nasty eye infection
It looks like your skin was darker in the phot with the spot. idk if you self tan, but tanner sticks to my brown spots and makes them much worse. Plus the sun makes them darker in summer. Your skin is paler now, so maybe it is still there, just not as visible. I still see the outline so... something to consider if you haven't already. I have been enjoying castor oil. The only improvement in my brown spots is they aren't as dry. Hope your spot stays away.
Thank you! Yes that photo was taken in the summer so I would have had a bit of a tan x
Organic and cold pressed in a glass brown bottle 😊
Yes! Next time I will buy one like that. I have since poured mine into a brown bottle 😊. Thanks for for tip! x
I put castor oil in my belly button at night and it helps with sleep and also morning BM's--great stuff
Great tip! I use it on my belly if I have digestive issues too! Thanks so much for sharing! x
For periods problems eat oranges and tangerine like all the time. Hope this helps. I’m just buy a bag of tangerine. Not big fan of oranges.
Thanks for the suggestions! x
