Castor oil came into my life at the perfect moment.
I was really sick of my lash extensions. I was over the price tag, over the TWO hour long appointments where I try to sleep but get stabbed in the eye every 10 minutes, I was over not being able to wash my face without “being careful.”
I was also not ready to pay for Latisse… I have used Latisse in the past. It worked like a charm but also felt wasteful (I was throwing away little plastic brushes twice a day) and required careful attention to make sure I used it daily. Plus it took about 2 months before I began to see results. Plus… chemicals are scary!!!!
This is when I was THRILLED to learn about castor oil. Castor oil is an all-natural alternative to lash extensions or growth products. It’s a safe, one ingredient, VERY cheap alternative that works very quickly… Basically it was sent from heaven to millennial girls yearning for cow lashes.
There’s no right or wrong way of using castor oil but basically the goal is just to get it on your lash line daily. Given that it’s a little greasy, I like to use it right before bed.
Here’s how I use it:
- I took a little travel bottle I already had from Amazon
- I filled it up with castor oil
- I added a little coconut oil (this is supposed to help thicken and condition your lashes)
- MIX MIX 🙂
- Put in night stand
- Right before bed, I put a pea sized amount between my two middle fingers, rub together to warm it up, and gently rub it over my upper lash line, lower lash line, and even brows if I get a little too much! I work it in pretty well and drift off to sleep…
*Note: if you get a little in your eyes- do not fret! This is normal and you’ll be fine. Your vision might be a little blurry though so be careful don’t try driving anywhere.
Now, I am not a scientist, or a doctor, and have nooo idea WHY this works, I just know that it does. If you have nut allergies, you might do some reading before using this product.
My results happen in about a week of using castor oil consistently.
I now just keep my castor oil in my nightstand and use it every night. Why the heck not right? I’ll stop if they ever get out of control 😉
