Castor Oil Prevents Wrinkles
last updated on 9 November 2011
What it does: Calms down inflammation. Prevents wrinkles and softens skin.
How to do it: Apply pure castor oil on skin. Don’t overdo it, a very light application is enough.
Why it helps: Castor oil softens skin naturally by penetrating the skin’s surface layers. This is important because an oil won’t do much good if it just sits on top of the skin. Nurses often apply castor oil on patients after cosmetic surgery.

dear sam,
i am a 22 year old from bangladesh. i have been suffering from pimples problem since i was in class 3
. it was gone when i was in grade 12, but now it’s back after 3 years. my face has suddenly been filled with pimples. another problem is that i have fine lines on the cheekbones and from nose to mouth areas. and my skin looks dull. i have fair skin. i was thinking of applying castor oil as night moisturizer. will it help? and will the castor oil detoriate the pimple situation?
i have combination-dry skin type.
thank you
Yes, castor oil might help pimples and dry, lined skin. But you’ll need to make sure it’s cold-pressed so it won’t clog your poress.
As an aside, pimples are usually a sign of something else going on inside us. Our skin is an excretory organ, but our bodies only expels toxins via skin eruptions (eg pimples, acne) when our primary excretory organs (liver, bowels, kidneys, etc) aren’t working optimally or are hindered in some way. So you may also want to look at other areas of your health (e.g. diet) if you’re seeking a more long-term solution to pimples.
thank you so much for your reply.
i am mixing castor oil and olive oil and applying it everynight for the last 3 nights. i put a warm washcloth for 30 seconds and then remove the excess and oil. can u tell me when approximately can i expect to see a result? however, when i wash my face in the morning with warm water only, my skin feels dry and i see sm white flakes on the forehead and left cheek. do u know where the problem lies?
You’re welcome. It depends on your original skin condition and speed of healing, but home remedies work slowly in general. It might take a few weeks or a few months before there are results (if any). And I don’t know if I’m reading your comment right, but 30-second castor oil applications are probably not going to do much… Unless you meant you only apply heat for 30 seconds (?), which should be helpful.
I don’t know about the white flakes, you might want to consult with a dermatologist who can examine your skin.
thnx fr the advice, sam
and yeah i did mean that i provide the heat for 30 seconds
