Native to Eastern Africa, India, and the southeastern Mediterranean Basin, Organic Castor Oil is obtained from beans of the Ricinus communis. This perennial flowering plant is now widespread throughout many tropical regions.

The castor plant iscultivated in an organic farming system, where no synthetic fertilisers or pesticides are present. Once harvested, the seeds are left to dry, allowing the hull to split open and release the seeds inside. The organic castor seed contains about 30%–50% oil (m/m).

Once the seeds have been removed and cleaned, they arecold-pressed.Without the addition of heat, the active ingredients are preserved. The crude oil is then filtered, ensuring the oil is of the highest quality and purity.

Craft 360 Organic Castor Oil is free from solvents like hexane.This carrier oil is lighter in colour and has a low acid and iodine content. These properties make organic castor oil suitable for use directly on the skin, and in cosmetic formulations.

Our Organic Castor Oil is a clear, viscous liquid with a pale yellow hue, with a mild distinctive odour. Miscible in alcohol and other plant oils, this carrier oil is insoluble in water.

• 100ml (Amber Glass Bottle - Including a Serum Pump)
