The Balm - 10ml

 

This welcome slick of luminous castor oil (a humectant, rich in hydrating ricinoleic acid) and a little bit of magic works wonders for your lips and eyebrows also helpful for skin discolouration.  It locks in the moisture and promotes healing (anti-microbial, anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory).  


Cure-all castor oil.


Castor oil has been used as a cure-all throughout the world for more than 3000 years; referred to in early herbal texts as Palma Christi ('palm of Christ') for its abundant healing properties.


A versatile vegetable oil, this classic cure-all is extracted from the seeds of the castor oil plant.  Its benefits derive from the essential fatty acids omega-6 and -9 that it contains, including ricinoleic acid, a humectant with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.  It is a valuable source, too, of the natural antioxidant vitamin E.


Castor oil's emollient and humectant qualities are ideal for smoothing and soothing dry, flaky lips and skin; for providing a protective barrier.  It is equally beneficial for hair and nail growth: nourishing eyebrows and cuticles.



How To Use It

Apply regularly, daily, to lips and eyebrows.  Excellent spot application for skin discolouration and bodycare, too (easy with Gagnon Essentials' handy roll-on applicator).
