Castor Oil has been a beauty essential for generations, valued for its wide range of applications in hair, skin, and cosmetic care. Extracted through a cold-pressed method from the seeds of the Ricinus communis plant, this nutrient-rich oil is thicker than many other carrier oils, making it an excellent choice for deep hydration and conditioning.

At Afro Cosmetics, we provide 100% pure, cold pressed Castor Oil in bulk wholesale sizes — ideal for personal use, salons, or small businesses creating natural beauty products.

Why Choose Castor Oil?

Unlike Jamaican Black Castor Oil, which is processed with heat, our cold-pressed Castor Oil preserves its natural nutrients in their purest form. This clear oil is rich in fatty acids and vitamins, helping to moisturize, protect, and strengthen hair, skin, and nails.

Key Benefits

• Supports Hair Care – Commonly used in shampoos, conditioners, and growth oils for fuller, stronger-looking hair.

• Enhances Eyebrows & Eyelashes – A favorite addition in natural lash and brow serums.

• Beard & Grooming Oil – Provides moisture and shine while conditioning coarse beard hair.

• Skin & Nail Care – Nourishes dry cuticles, adds softness, and creates a protective layer on the skin.
