Castor oil, made from the seeds of the Ricinus communis plant, has been used for many years because of its healing properties.

Castor oil contains ricinoleic acid, which is a type of fatty acid that helps to keep skin moisturized. This means it helps your skin keep moisture by stopping water from escaping through the outer layer of the skin.
