Every Goddess body is different. Castor Oil is powerful for a reason—so take it slow, listen closely, and let your body guide the rhythm.

It has many uses—from facial rituals to belly massage to traditional packs—and each one supports a different layer of self-care.

✦ Face, Neck & Chest: Roll onto clean, damp skin to hydrate and smooth the look of fine lines.
Use: Nightly

✦ Body: Massage into damp skin after a shower—especially over the belly, breasts, or any area craving softness and flow.
Use: Daily or as often as your body calls for it

✦ Lashes & Brows: Dab a little oil onto lashes or brows using a clean spoolie or fingertip. Castor Oil has long been used to condition and support the appearance of fuller lashes and brows.
Note: We recommend using pure Castor Oil (not essential oil blends) for this area.
Use: Nightly

✦ Belly Button: Massage in nightly to support digestion and the appearance of a flatter-looking belly.
Use: Nightly

✦ Castor Oil Pack Ritual: Pour Castor Oil onto your Organic Cotton Pack and place it over your liver (under the right rib), lower belly, or breasts. The pack holds warmth and helps the oil work with your body’s natural detox rhythm.
Use: Start with 20–30 minutes, 3–5x per week. Rest 1–2 days between uses and build up to 1 hour as desired.

Yes. Many women find it helps soothe cramps and tension during their cycle. But if you’re bleeding heavily or feeling sensitive, you may want to wait a few days before applying over the womb area.

Castor oil is non-comedogenic (it won’t clog pores). It’s thick, but deeply supportive for dry, sensitive, or barrier-compromised skin. Start slow, especially if you’re breakout-prone. Most Goddesses prefer to use Castor Oil as a nigh time routine.

✧ Try a patch test first. Use daily if your skin loves it.

No need to heat castor oil before applying—it absorbs beautifully on its own. The unique composition of the oil, especially its high ricinoleic acid content, allows it to penetrate deeply without extra warmth.

If you're using a Castor Oil Pack, your body heat alone is usually enough to support absorption. Some women like to add a gentle heat source—like a warm compress or heating pad—to deepen their ritual or encourage more flow, but it’s entirely optional.

✧ The practice works because of your consistency, not intensity.

Castor Oil is naturally stabilized with Vitamin E, which helps keep both the pure oil and our blends fresh—without the need for synthetic preservatives. To protect its integrity, we bottle it in amber glass. Store in a cool, dry place away from heat and sunlight, and always keep the cap tightly sealed.

We don’t recommend drinking Castor Oil.

While some historical texts and natural health books reference internal use, Holistic Goddess Castor Oil is intended for external use only—for skin, belly, and wellness rituals like Castor Oil Packs.

Always consult with a trusted health provider before considering internal use.

We advise against using castor oil—especially over the abdomen—during pregnancy, as it may stimulate uterine contractions. While some traditional practices have employed castor oil for labor induction, it's essential to consult with your healthcare provider before considering its use during pregnancy.​

For breastfeeding or postpartum care, castor oil may support scar massage and hormone-friendly rituals. However, always consult your provider before incorporating it into your routine.
