Castor Oil for Acne: Benefits and Precautions

What are the benefits and precautions of using castor oil for acne?

Since castor oil is a natural astringent, it cleanses the skin, removing dirt and bacteria that causes acne.

It reduces acne scars, stimulates the production of collagen, thus hydrating the skin.

Ricinoleic acid contained in this oil, fights inflammation, swelling, and redness.

It also contains omega-9 fatty acid - it helps to fight against the bacteria, which causes acne.

You need to keep in mind that in order to get the most benefits from this natural remedy for acne, you have to get a pure, cold-pressed, organic castor oil.

If you feel that using the pure oil on your skin is not the best option, you may dilute it with appropriate carrier oil.

You will have to experiment to figure out the most optimal amount of castor oil for your skin type.

Also, if there is no improvement in your skin condition after 6 weeks of oil use, consult a doctor.
