Fractionated Coconut Oil for Hair and Skin, 100% and Liquid Aromatherapy Carrier Oil for Diluting Essential Oils, Hair Growth & Skin Moisturizer, Great for DIY

This is my first experience with Castor Oil so I didn’t know what to expect. The thickness. I’ve read complaints about it but I find it to be the perfect consistency to add to a carrier with EO combos. It blends my serums and gives them a thick enough consistency when applied with other ingredients so you feel like you have a barrier. I combine coconut oil, castor oil, rose oil, lavender oil and sometimes I add Rosemary. My husband is having a reaction to rosemary so I may just eliminate it from my collection. Once I combine the products in a shallow dish with my fingers (the body heat helps the mixture blend easier), I apply a good amount to my entire face. Massage it in until it’s no longer greasy, just moist from the oils. I’ve been using this combination for about three weeks and I see a noticeable difference in my skin. The fine lines around my eyes are not nearly as pronounced, my skin is brighter and more even textured. Overall, I’m completely thrilled with this product. When my skin is chapped or feels wind or sun burned, I used straight castor oil onto my skin and rub it in. None of this makes you’re skin greasy. After about twenty minutes your skin doesn’t feel oily, it feels dry and soft. I am planning to make more serums custom for my friend a and family and I’ll definitely be using IQ Naturals Castor oil. After I do my face, I apply Castor Oil to my eyelashes. I have horrible lashes, partially due to an eye injury as a small child from a bully. They are short and even missing in some spots. I have been using it on my lashes for about a month, give or take a week. I’m actually noticing they are a tiny bit longer. It’s not fast if it’s actually working. I’m going to keep using it and give it a good chance. I recommend this product!

Very fine oil it is.

good

Ok, if you want to soften and moisturize your scalp this is by far the best product to do it. I have thin hair so I don't need to use a lot of the oil for softening purposes. However for scalp moisturizing you really need to get a large amount of oil onto your head for it to soak into the scalp. If you like having a permanent "wet look" you can easily make this product do that for you . Just use more oil. I don't like the pump on the bottle. If you don't press the pump very lightly the oil will come shooting out with normal pressure and get all over the place, believe me. Speaking of that, after making the mistake of getting the oil splattered around, especially on my clothes, I found that the oil DOES stain clothing, contrary to what's written on the bottle. The bottle says it won't stain. Now, what do they mean? Won't stain your skin? Unlikely. They don't say clothing but what the heck else could that infer? The next issue is that the product information says, " do not get in eyes." If you go on line you will see tons of articles advocating the use of coconut oil in and around the eyes, even fractionated coconut oil. So, why is the user being told to avoid the eyes? Maybe to covers their ass*s if someone has a unique severe reaction, that's all I can think of. Reading that though makes me uneasy about using it near or even on my eyelids and lashes- where I believe I need it. To me the product is greasy, but it says on the bottle that it isn't. More confusion. Yes it will eventually absorb into your skin but it takes a good while. Outside of these issues it is a very good product for hair. It hasn't been beneficial as a hand moisturizer though for me. I haven't tried other brands of fractionated coconut oil so I can't give a comparative review. Maybe others are better or worse.

I use this Pure Body Naturals organic fractionated coconut oil as a mask for my hair ends, to remove eye make up, and on my hands before applying moisturizer on top. This fragrance free oil does not allergize my eyes in any way while the majority of eye make up removers do. Great investment. I apply it on my hair ends every now and then for a night time and wash my hair in the morning. My hair feels smooth and alive. I keep purchasing this every time I run out.
