Description:
Castor oil is a vegetable oil obtained by pressing the seeds of the castor oil plant (Ricinus communis).The common name "castor oil", from which the plant gets its name, probably comes from its use as a replacement for castoreum, a perfume base made from the dried perineal glands of the beaver (castor in Latin).
Castor oil is a colorless to very pale yellow liquid with a distinct taste and odor once first ingested.
Uses
Castor oil and its derivatives are used in the manufacturing of soaps, skincare products and perfume making.

What are essential oils?
The essential oils are the aromatic, natural chemical compounds extracted from various parts of a plant: leaves, flowers, stems, roots, bark, etc. They are in such a potent form that a single drop of essential oil can equal multiple teaspoons of the dried (for instance, 1 drop of peppermint oil equals more than 25 cups of peppermint tea and oils can be up to 70x more potent than their dried form). This means less is more .
