I love castor oil. Since using it, I’ve given up the expensive latisse. I slather the castor oil all over my face, neck and hands just before going to bed. Yes, I do look like a grease stick. In morning I add just a couple of drops to my moisturizer and eye cream. Honestly, it’s a miracle product. Even the deep lines on my forehead have decreased by at least 50%. I also use it on my hair before washing. I leave it on for 6-8 hours before shampooing. I’m 65 btw
I do all of that too. I do castor overnight once a week.
(On hair). I infuse with rosemary sometimes.
This is amazing to hear!!! Thank you for sharing your experience with us! ♥️♥️♥️
@@RunninUpThatHillhlove it! great Rosemary tip for hair regrowth with some studies to support it! 😉🙌🏼
Question on the rose Mary and oil on hair, do you put it just on the scalp and then wear a bonnet to bed?
best part of video, man and dog sneaking past in background really fast!!
Good eye!!! I told you at beginning I wasn’t editing it 😂😂😂
Also….your cute little yorkie coming into the bedroom to see what’s taking you so long ! lol.
@@jfolan2503😂😂😂 yes, she always has an eye on us!!
Read this and looked up just in time 😂
So tiny and cute 😂😂
Castor oil is amazing for arthritis. My knee has arthritis and swells. It is the only thing that works and it does work.
That’s amazing to hear, Debra! So happy to hear it works for you too! ♥️
really? wow! how do you go about applying it? Do you apply it just directly on your skin?
@@faith.fitness123 hi Ruth, yes, you can apply if directly to the skin and just massage it in the area that’s hurting ♥️
Thank you for your response. God bless x @@JentriQuinn
@@faith.fitness123 my pleasure! I hope it helps you! Xo
Speaking of pets, my dog gets cysts on different parts of her body. I started putting castor oil on them nightly and they all drained and went away. My vet was shocked. I didn't want to have them removed with surgery and this was so awesome. I highly recommend castor oil for pet limps and bumps.
This is amazing to hear, Wendy! So happy your doggie is ok 🙏🏼♥️ Thank you for sharing this with us.
I will try that! Thank you for the tip!!
What is the brand of castor oil that you used? Thanks
@@jazzy8795 hi! I’ve used many brands over the years but the ones I mentioned in the video are Sky Organics, Heritage and Velona 😉 Thanks for joining us here.
My old heeler had a cyst on her upper eyelid - got so big is started to affect her eye. I kid you not - I got some cold pressed, organic castor oil and put it on the lump maybe 4-5 times over the span of a few weeks. Had two vets look at it and both weren’t crazy about putting het under anesthesia bc of her age. Both said it was just a tumor type issue - not to worry on it. She had it for maybe 8 months. After the castle oil it ruptured and is almost completely gone now.
I have had intermittent eyelid dermatitis for as long as I can remember. For the last 2 years, it has been constant. I was given prescription steroid ointment, which helped somewhat but it never goes away. It makes my lids look so dry and crusty especially when wearing eyeshadow. I started using castor oil twice a day and in 3 days…GONE!! I use it on my entire face and neck at night. In the am I just use a tiny tiny amount where the dermatitis really likes to act up on my lids. I gently rub it in, give it a couple of min and it has soaked in and I can easily apply eye makeup. I am a complete convert! I am in the medical field as well as natural born skeptic. It took me about a year try castor oil but man oh man does it work!!
This is amazing to hear! I’m sorry about your dermatitis because I know it’s miserable (I’ve had eczema on and off for years), but happy you were able to switch to something besides a steroid! That’s so awesome!! ❤
I'm dealing with the same issue for several years with the dermatitis. I have absolutely no eyelashes. Was just given an eye drop prescription of a new product which is done nothing except irritate my eyes. Starting today I will do this and see if it helps. Thank you for sharing!
@@maureenwiltse9226 hi Maureen, keep us updated on your progress ♥️
I have a question. If it makes your eyelashes and eyebrows grow, will it cause facial hair?
@@cathymarsh1782 hi Cathy, great question. It helps nourish hair follicles for less breakage which is primarily why hair on your head and brows typically appear fuller when using castor oil but you don’t need to worry about it making you grow more facial hair in general. 😉
I have been using castor oil for about 1 month I massage my eyelids and around the eyes and I am not seeing the thick spider leg floaters that I used to see. My hands which I massage morning and night or not getting numb during the night anymore. And it's also working well on my feet which were quite dry and went through a peeling process this summer.
I'm enjoying my experience
This is wonderful news! Love hearing how it’s helped you! Thanks for sharing with us & joining me here! ♥️
What brand is used?
@@janetcopeland5014I recommend Heritage (in glass) or Sky Organics. And Velona is a budget friendly option. Hope this is helpful. ♥️
@@janetcopeland5014 I bought it here in Portugal at my local health food store. It comes in a plastic bottle, it says that it's cold pressed and I didn't notice if it meets all the other requirements, it was the only one they had.
I will look at the brands you suggest, but often if they come from another country the shipping fees can be quite elevated, except if it comes from China, but I'm a bit skeptical about products from there even though I don't know if the bulk of it does come from there and is distributed to other countries like most of the other stuff.
I don't remember if I mentioned that my eyebrows seem darker to me now.
Happy New Year
@@pearaltamelo1027I understand! If you can find out if it’s hexane free that would be ideal. You can just pour it into a glass bottle. Let me know if you have any other questions and happy new year to you as well! 😘
Thank you, Jentri. I totally enjoyed your presentation.
My pleasure! I hope it’s helpful ♥️🙏🏼

I add two large drops of castor oil to a little bit of cream in the morning and evening and I must honestly say - I didn’t had such soft, smooth skin on my face since my twenties- 20 years ago. My skin is extremely dry and dehydrated. First, I apply toners and essences and seal them with cream and castor oil. Without applying the oil, my skin was dry and rough to the touch about 3 hours after applying all other cosmetics. I also use it with my whole family after a shower - on wet skin, it sits on my skin while I clean the shower and after a minute I dry myself with a towel. I don't need any creams or lotions after shower anymore and again - my skin is very dry all over my body. I recommend castor oil to everyone :)
This is so wonderful to hear! 😊 Love learning how many different & wonderful ways castor oil is helping. ❤ Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thank you for this. Try systemic enzymes on an empty stomach for fibroids and any lisions. In 6 months it helped me completely dissolve a 5.1 centemiter lision on my liver and proved on a CT scan. All I did is take systemic enzymes and did castor oil packs. Hope it help you or anyone reading this🙏🙏
Thank you so much!!! I’ve been taking them too thanks to the advice of my IHP. 🙏🏼 I’m so happy to hear about your success - that’s wonderful news. ♥️

I use castor oil every night on my face, around my eyes, on my veins, and my scar! I've never had a problem with staining on my bed sheets and some nights I lay it on thick (you'll be surprised how quickly it absorbs)! I've noticed a huge improvement with my hormonal acne, my spots don't scar as much as they used to and the old pigmentation has lightened dramatically! My eyelashes and eyebrows have grown, and my hypertrophic scar is starting to break down!
I've only ever applied CO topically, I use organic, cold-pressed, and hexane free. The one I purchase is in a plastic bottle but the company I purchase from have good standards of practice so I can't imagine they'll be using bad plastics especially as the plastic is recyclable!
I've recently started using castor oil in my hair and soaking a cotton pad to place on my painful heammoroids overnight (after 3 nights I'm feeling relief). Just last night I placed some inside my belly button before I went to sleep. If it's your first time do go easy it definitely opens your bowels 😂
Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Danielle! This is amazing to hear! 🤩 So happy you joined us here. ♥️
Lovely vid, very informative. And thank you for the sensible look at glass/plastic. Too many people latch onto the first thing they hear and don't bother to look at all the info available and haven't a clue on how to think for themselves. Wish I could hit the "like" button more than once.

I oil pull with castor oil everyday:). I get the Queen of Thrones brand in a glass bottle. The problem with getting it in plastic then pouring it in glass is that the damage is already done. Bottles can sit in warehouses with varying temperatures for long periods of time.
Love oil pulling! ❤ Yes, it’s very hard to know how any products are stored, including ones that arrive in glass, and since individual ingredients are also sourced from all different regions / companies.
Did you see any benefits from oil pulling with castor oil? I only recently started to use castor oil instead of coconut oil but it always make me cringe because it’s so expensive
I have been looking for evidence that castor is better than coconut or sunflower oil! I love oil pulling too and do it often.
@@Mister_Listener I learned from a dentist that sesame oil is effective for oil pulling too but haven’t tried it yet (I use coconut). Hope this helps.
@@JentriQuinn yes! Thank you for the info. Sesame and sunflower are the most commonly recommended, and for years i only used sunflower. The Sesame oil flavor didnt excite me. But in order to deal with candida albicans that sometimes takes over my throat and mouth, i have switched to coconut for its supposed anti fungal properties.
Thank you for the helpful information on castor oil that is based on your experience! God bless you. God is good.
My pleasure, so happy it’s helpful. Thanks for being here with us.❤
Thank you so much for this video! Great tips!
My pleasure, Lisa ! Thanks for being here with us. ♥️
Didn't do a thing for growing my lashes or brows, but castor oil applied directly to my eyes using a dropper helped relieve my dry, itchy eyes and has significantly reduced my pinguecula. Also makes my hands look very moisturized. Good stuff.
Wonderful! So happy to hear you found some great ways to use it that’s working so well for you! 😍
Great info. Thank you! ❤️
Thank you, Sharie! So happy it was helpful ❤
Jentri thank you for the update. Just purchased some organic dark Castor oil and I wish that it was less sticky and thick. Reminds me of molasses but I will try mixing it with coconut oil. Have used it all over and find it a super old time remedy. Look forward to your other content.
I feel you! I hope the coconut helps. Let me know how it goes! 😘
Good results! Thanks for sharing ❤
My pleasure 😘 thanks for watching!
@@JentriQuinnyou bet!
I use it for my eyes that used to be darker. Now my under eyes are bright
That’s amazing! 🤩 thank you for sharing!
How long does it take?
@@Lily_of_the_Forest @toastedcake2947 hi! Great question! Your licensed esti chiming in here … I have to think that any brightening effects are the result of its moisturizing & potential lightening capabilities, such as omegas and ricinoleic acid. Moisturizing benefits can be pretty quick to notice, but lightning can longer.😍 However, when your skin is nice and hydrated, it will naturally appear a little brighter. Hope this helps!
3:55 I think applying with clean hands prevents contaminating your source bottle. Afterwards, just rub it into your hands. It soaks in very nicely and softens skin.
That’s always a good practice. Thanks, Cheri! 😊
Such an informative video! Thanks so much for sharing!
My pleasure, so happy it was helpful! 🙏🏼♥️😘
Do you drink it or massage in
@@bridieoconnor6670 I massage it in. 😊 Some do drink it though for different purposes.

Good luck with that.
@@64smiles42what does pulling with it do for you?
On the subject of dogs: U can also give ur dogs locally harvested honey for skin allergies and other allergies, but it needs to be locally harvested to give the most relief from allergies bc the bees will be pollinating the local flowers where u and ur pets live. It’s a fantastic anti-viral and anti-microbial as well. Our vet has us give our three dogs a tsp of honey in their breakfast every day (they’re all big dogs so I would only give small dogs 1/8-1/4 tsp per day), and we also feed them raw. They rarely if ever have to go to the vet bc their teeth and body health r amazing! Our vet also recommended we stop vaccinating after the age of three bc they have all the antibody levels they will need for life by then. Our rottie, Thor, always had reactions to vaccines, and we always had to give him an injection of Benadryl before his vaccinations so we titer tested him at age two. His titer levels came back well within range so we stopped vaccinating him then since he always had reactions. We also give coconut oil (1 tsp each for big dogs, 1/8-1/4 tsp for small dogs) every day in their dinner bc it seems to do more good internally. If applied topically, they tend to lick it off. Just thought I would pass on our personal experiences with using natural remedies for our dogs. As for myself, I use castor oil daily and swear by it! It completely got rid of my psoriasis.
Such amazing and thoughtful info to share here, Lori, thank you! I love giving our seniors local honey too - great advice. 🤩 🍯 I love your passion for animals & can tell we’d be fast friends in person, too! 😉
Thank you for sharing. I will start this with my doggy as she has seasonal allergies. She just got cleared of valley fever after having it for 2yrs plus so we need to get her liver back up to par.
@jessicaflores2616 Yw! Make sure the coconut oil is organic and cold pressed if ur going to give it to eat in her food for her skin. The honey will help her allergies tremendously as long as it's locally harvested. I get ours from a local health food store that carries a locally harvested honey. The biggest recommendation I can give to get her liver back to health is feeding her raw. Our rottie, Thor, tore his right back knee ligament when he was 9 months old. Our vet didn't want to do surgery as our first option since he was still a puppy so we crate rested him for 6 weeks (hard to do with a puppy lol), and fed him a raw diet with a joint supplement from Wholistic Pet Organics which we still give daily to all our dogs. His knee completely healed w/o surgerical intervention, and our vet tells that story to all her clients. Raw feeding definitely helps our pets SO MUCH to heal what's bothering them! We get ours from Texas Tripe, but Farmer's Dog and Stella and Chewy's r also good brands. U can also cook their food. I cook one of our dog's food bc she has acid reflux, and a cooked diet triggers her acid reflux less than fully raw. I feed her the recipe from Dr. Jones' channel, Veterinary Secrets. His cooked food recipes r great for both cats and dogs. My brother follows his recipe for his cat bc his cat has lymphoma. Hope this helps! If u have any further questions, pls feel free to ask. ❤️
Seasonal allergies are from plants not requiring pollination. Pollen is in the air, giving you allergies. Bees pollinate and interact with plants NOT in the air bothering you. So use ANY honey.
Nettle is great for allergies. Tincture and tea.
Thank you, very useful info!
My pleasure! So happy it was helpful ❤
I have a sky organic castor oil. Use it daily on my face, neck, lips , and lashes.
So awesome!! 🥰 Thanks for joining us here!

Castor oil most definitely can make scar tissue disappear. I put it every night on a deep gash near my elbow and it's no longer visible. It does have so many uses!
That’s wonderful to hear! ❤
My mom told me her father was prescribed castor oil back in the 1930's as a treatment for pain from Trigeminal Neuralgia. He had been suffering from horrible debilitating pain in his face, and taking castor oil helped prevent those painful attacks.
Oh wow, that’s incredible! I’m so glad it helped him manage his pain ♥️
I use castor oil in my belly button. Could be my imagination (LOL!) but it really helps my microbiome. Easy to use and do, so I'm keeping it up! I also use castor oil on my brows and yes, it helps them look fuller. I will try the oil on my eyelid for the dry eyes. I'm hoping that it also helps with the cataracts that I've started to get. (I'm 70, so that's that.) So many good uses for castor oil!
Yes indeed, so many great uses!! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Please keep us posted on your progress. ❤ In my experience, addition to castor oil, warm compresses on my eyes, facial massage around my eye area and preservative free refresh drops also help with dry eyes.
How do you keep the oil in the belly button so it doesn’t make a mess everywhere? Any tips for applying it to your face and not accidentally transferring it to your pillow case, etc, at night?
@@private7419 I use a Q-tip to put the oil in my belly button. It stays fine. I also use a Q-tip (the other side) to put castor oil on my eyebrows. And I got the tip from Jentri to put castor oil in a roll-on bottle and I use that to roll it around my eyes. I stay on the orbital bone above the eye and the bone below the eye. I don't worry about getting it on a pillowcase because it can be washed. Although I don't see it on my satin pillowcase. If you're concerned about that, designate a particular pillowcase that you use only when you put castor oil on your face or eyes.
sunglasses prevent cataracts
@@redrumax Actually, the research that I have done says that 'sun gazing' is very valuable for your eyes and helps them to heal. Sunglasses were invented by the cabal to keep us out of the sun so we'd not get all the good healing benefits of the sun. Just sayin'.
I love Castor Oil!! Thank you.
My pleasure, Mary! Thanks for joining us here. ❤
I'm 64, and have had active rheumatoid arthritis for the last fourteen years with "the rash" - if you know, you know - nothing "over-the-counter" that I've tried has helped. Coconut oil base, castor oil, lavender (5) and tea tree (3) essential oil drops make a cream that reduces itch and minimizes damage to the skin. That said, everyone's skin is different, and always do a skin patch before using new products on your skin.
I’m sorry to hear about your RA but I’m so happy you found a natural remedy that helps. Thank you for sharing your story (& recipe!) with us. ❤
Does it help with enlarged clogged lymphnodes? Im using the oil on the area cloth over it then my infrared heating pad. I'll stay with it incase it takes awhile. Helps with the pain.
I don’t have experience with using castor oil for this but hoping someone else with knowledge will chime in. ❤ I’m happy it’s helping you with your pain.
If you’re having problems with enlarged lymph nodes, that’s your body signaling that it’s fighting off an infection of some sort. To be safe, you should see a Doctor, because that can be the first sign of larger problems. I would hope not, but generally, problems with lymph nodes are indicative of a more serious issue.
@@TexasHart thank you for sharing this and joining us here ♥️
hi. I'm just starting to take care of my skin. I'm doing derma rolling (the smallest needles) how soon after doing it can i use the caster oil on my face. Thank you for a helpful video.
Hi!! My pleasure. ❤ You can follow up the dermarolling with a basic skin care routine, avoiding chemicals and actives. Hyaluronic acid is generally accepted as a good choice to use afterwards, and if your skin is dry, you can use the Castor Oil to help seal in moisture. As with any new routine, it’s always wise to do a patch test, first. 😊
I was wondering if I could use it on my Labradors eyelids for dry eyes
Hi Connie! I’m not sure but think it’s worth asking your vet about ❤❤❤ For my senior pug’s dry eyes, I’ve used my own refresh drops (preservative free) before and think they’ve been helpful.
8:45 great info i use castor oil on my face it reduced my wrinkles on my face nd on my neck❤
So wonderful to hear! ❤

Hello Jentri.
I'm so happy 😁 to find you....
You are the 1st genuine person, I've found, that actually answers people.
At my age, you'd of had to, of heard of c.o.
I just saw my Doctor on Thursday, she confirmed I'm going Bald😮😱😭.
I also am just learning about the benefits of the oil.
So my g.p. said, yes try c.o. First.
😂 YA,. I'm 61 now 😢.
I don't want you to feel sorry for me.
Just not good at explaining myself, (abuse' victim).
I have always looked after my skin, to the point of obsession 😮.
But, I'm struggling with self love...
I had a whole lot of people, say at Xmas time, where are you wrinkles 😱😧.
For me, i don't see what they see, or I've suddenly aged.
Anyway, i REALLY want to use c.o.
On my face
My question is with so many conflicting view points, how do I know who to believe.
Ii was a natural health therapist and beauty therapist 🙏.
I personally feel, would it be better, to start with anyway.
Is to mix with a carrier oil, such as jojoba, grapeseed, or maybe apricot.
I use mostly retinol based products, so would guess, if i go that route, I'd need to purchase a natural night cream.
I of course WANT to use in my hair.
I live in a little country 😮, across the world from u s.a. not that easy to buy added extras like little bottles. Hope you can please help.
And yes will subscribe to your wonderful channel.
Thanks so much 🙏🌺🌺🌺🌺
Hi Jas, thank you for joining us here and for subscribing to my channel!
I’m sorry to hear about your hair loss. I agree, castor oil is probably the easiest and most afford thing to try first. You can use a carrier oil with it if you find that helpful. Coconut oil may help with the glide-ability on your scalp but jojoba is best when using it on your face. And if you can get a hold of Rosemary oil, combining a few drops with your castor oil can also be effective.
As with most things, you have to do them consistently for you to see results so I recommend doing this at least a few times a week.
You may also want to talk to your healthcare professional about vitamin supplements or changes in lifestyle / hormones that can also impact hair loss.
I wish you the very best of luck on your journey. Please keep me updated on your results. ❤
HI Jentri.
Probably to late before I order.
Can I use the castor oil, jojoba and rosemary e..o.
Together on my face 😱?
I hope so
MY hair is, WOW 😲 I used it with the coconut oil equal parts
Left it in for around half hour.
Still very dense, but think it did a good job.
MY curls, are so defined 😮.
Showing more of my Grey's, BUT ( it's ok, went grey at 10 yrs old 😮).
WILL keep it up.
WILL wait for. You REPLY.
Yes, using on face, mixed into a natural skin cream.hope you are Well 🌺🌺🌺🌺
@@jasanders5877 hi there, I’m so happy you are seeing results so quickly! I wouldn’t use the rosemary oil formulation on your face. But any oils you want to mix together should be ok as long as you’re not breakout prone (if using on face). Best of luck on your continued journey, keep us posted! ♥️
@@JentriQuinn sorry 😔 I'm a bit confused 🤔.
I mixed equal parts of c.o. jojoba and around 6 drops of rosemary oil, it that wrong 🙏.
I didn't see this message.
I have been using this combo for last nine days
SEEMS okay.
Can you please 🙏, SORRY let me know.
Thought that's what you meant 🌺
@@jasanders5877 hi Jas, if you don’t like the way castor oil feels you can mix castor oil with any oil you’d like. When applying it on your scalp (not face) you can mix the rosemary oil into the castor oil to see if it helps with hair regrowth and breakage. Hope this helps😊
Niacinamide is great for arthritis pain. I haven’t had any pain since taking it.

Look into taking Nattokinase for the fibroids.
Thank you! I take a proteolytic enzyme recommended to me by my IHP. I’ll look into this too.
Which enzyme did your IHP recommend?
@@cdrob8546I’ve used a few different formulas / brands but she recommended the ones from equi.life - their supplements are very high quality. How did you learn about Nattokinase?

We enjoy your videos very much ant thank you. Here's a question for you if would would happen to know. I use castor oil a lot lately and every night a lot on my hands and fingers and rub it in to the best one can however my hands fingers and nails are soooo dry like the desert sand. Weird when I use so much oil. Would you happen to know why? or could you recommend something that would work? Thankyou Shirley
Hi Shirley, great question. I’d recommend layering something over it like Vaseline, aquaphor or even cetaphil. Sounds like you need something more occlusive to lock in the moisture. Let me know how that works.😉
Thank you for your answer and this
great idea and I think I am going to experiment with a few things and once something works I will let you know. and thank you again@@JentriQuinn
@@shirleysmith2044 my pleasure, Shirley! 😘 ps. Shirley is my mom’s name ♥️
Have you tried drinking more water? I definitely notice a difference in my skin when I'm properly hydrated versus probably a little dehydrated. Just a thought. Good luck!
I've heard a lot of positive testimonials for a clean keto diet relieving arthritis and shrinking fibroids. I'm almost a couple of months into ketovore, and I have gotten excellent results, one of them being less arthritis symptoms. I'm really hoping to get rid of uterine polyps and endometriosis in the long run. 🙏🏻 Good luck on your healing journey! 💛
Thank you kindly for sharing this with us, Marie, and same to you on your healing journey! 🙏🏼♥️
About to try castor oil for a number of these things myself, but curious if you think most organic, unprocessed, etc. natural oils have positive effects?
Hi! I do, but because of their different properties they all have different benefits unless you’re mainly using them topically for occlusive purposes to help lock in moisture - most oils will do a good job 😊
I find it very difficult to get it off my face in the morning. I got a wood pressed organic hexane free one. It's even more thicker than the stuff available otherwise. I have been using it on my hands and it's done wonders in a very short time so I really want to use it on my face and neck etc as well but the challenge is to get it off and yes one more thing happened after I applied it on my face I got a pimple every time I tried so am quite clueless, any insights
I saw a comment on another channel about a women who experienced full face breakouts after applying it. She kept using it anyway (bless her for such patience), and all of it cleared up and her skin is better than ever. Her hypothesis is that because caster oil is such a strong detoxer, that it pulled impurities to the surface of her skin, but then healed the breakouts.
I just started using it and noticed that every morning, I will have a new zit coming in, but the next day, the previous one is gone or nearly so. I'm starting to think there's something to her hypothesis. I've started using it all over my body to hopefully more evenly distribute any detoxing symptoms. This is all purely theory, but I think it's worth consideration and experimentation. Good luck!
@5:38 ..Actually SOME fibroids can shrink or disappear on their own without any intervention. So can other skin lumps depending on location and your hormones.
Yes, that’s what my research concluded too which is why I’m opting not to have surgery, as long as the symptoms are tolerable.
@@JentriQuinn me too
@@user-jh7cq3ct6u I hope your symptoms continue to improve and it eventually goes away! ♥️🙏🏼
@@JentriQuinn yes you too

gosh I hope you see this Jentri!
I have owned a pet salon for 30 years and practice holistic pet medicine for the last 20.
When you make your balm include some black seed oil in the balm mix. You can do some research on what it does and how long it's been used. In my salon I'll mention it to clients who have dogs who have yeast infections and ear infections in general so bad that the vet's only option is to sew the ear shut. black seed oil in the ear canal neat has cleared the ears of some pretty nasty and chronic ear problems. I have some at my grooming station and I just rub it on the ear leather on all my dogs. Works for feet, hot spots, dry skin...etc. It's a broad spectrum so it hits everything. Added into your balm it's like a natural triple antibiotic.
God Bless!

This is amazing to hear, Ali! The work you do sounds wonderful. Where are you located, if you don't mind me asking? Thank you so much for sharing this and being a part of our community. You're the BEST!!!
@@JentriQuinn Oh gosh, I don't mind sharing. I was born and raised in West Seattle and I apprenticed there. Moved to the LC Valley 17 years ago. I'm right on the Snake River that divides Wa from Idaho. I'm on the Clarkston, Wa side. Lewiston, Idaho is across the river. Both places are considered one small town to the Locals so it's just the LC Valley to us. My salon is Central Bark Pet Salon. My husband and I make all of our products that we use on the dogs at our home. All animals are bathed in a handmade organic castile shampoo and an aloe vera based face shampoo. We started making all of the products because at some point my skin had a massive reaction to grooming shampoo.. As in....my dermatologist told me I'd literally needed to retire to get my skin to heal. We found a way around that by making all of our products ourselves. We don't advertise the organic thing but to my knowledge (and I've looked high and low) we are the only pet salon in the United States that produce our own products in house.
I absolutely LOVE what I do and added bonus is that I have complete control over what I put on my kids ....a'hem...dogs. I do have dogs that I tailor products specifically for their needs...anything from colloidal oatmeal and chamomile to nascent oxygen. Skin is the largest organ and I'll tell you what....it's AMAZING how long dogs live when you focus on just that part of the body. Sometimes it's not what is in the product....but what is NOT. My last batch of personal dogs lived to be 18 and a half to almost 20. Unheard of for shih tzu's.
Love your channel!
@@alihuebner9086 WOW!! Just wow. You and your husband are incredible and I love the name of your business, your unique model and handmade products that support each dog’s unique needs. That is so inspiring! Keep up the amazing work!!! We need more people like you in the world. ♥️

Learn about castor oil packs. Three foot long flannel folded pour generous amount of castor oil apply directly to ailing organ area, layer plastic over flannel then place heating pad or hot water bottle. After 30 min or so put flannel in plastic bad and reuse over and over adding more castor oil each time.
Thanks for the tip, Connie! I recently got a castor oil pack, too, so I'm curious to see what the difference will be! :)
Thank you for this, Jentri. Just curious-why don’t you use castor oil on your face?
My pleasure, Marguerite! ❤ I’ve dabbled, lol. I just prefer using other skincare products on my face for different reasons. 🤩
Can you tell me which Occusoft you are using? Btw thank you for your research and info!!! Amazing! I have chronic dry eye sparse lashes & brows since menopause
It's my pleasure! And I can totally relate! I personally like the disposable pads (they have a leave on and rinse off formula) because I'm lazy. :) Here's the direct link to what I use: amzn.to/3vHbpNS
@@JentriQuinn I'm a little leery of a product with that many ingredients that I can't pronounce! Seeing as you are an esthetician, are these ingredients safe/natural for our eyes? And does this product really remove eye makeup? Thank you if you have time to reply.
@@bf9436 Hi, great question. In my opinion It’s a trusted brand that’s been around for a very long time and yes it will take off eye makeup (I use it as my 2nd eyelid cleanse). I’ve used it for years and I have sensitive eyes. As a beauty creator that works with chemists, I understand the comfort of understanding the names of ingredients you read, (I personally like that too!) but that sadly won’t make ingredients safer. I have clients that are allergic to ‘natural’ ingredients like lavender. I’m more concerned as to the health of my eyes if I don’t use a proper eyelid/ eye area cleanser. 😊 As with anything new you’re using, I recommend doing a patch test first. I hope this is helpful. ♥️
@@JentriQuinn Thank you! You are so kind to take the time to answer me! 💖💖
@@bf9436 it’s my pleasure! Thanks for being here with us. 🙏🏼♥️😘
Nice sharing maam good morning
My pleasure! Hope it was helpful. ♥️
Can we mix castor oil with rosehip oil for face thanks 😊
Hi! Yes, I see no issue with this. Just make sure to always do a patch test first to make sure you're not allergic to anything. 😊
I got castor oil & a question.
To those who use it on face or hair overnight, how do u keep it from getting on pillowcase, or bedding?
Hi, Anita. I recommend applying it a couple of hours before bed so it has a chance to absorb a bit. You can cover your hair with a bonnet if you want to sleep with it on. 😊
@@JentriQuinn awesome🤗 thank you!!
@@anitaevans5361 my pleasure ♥️
Thick oils like castor oil are better used with carrier oils that are thinner like olive oil for hair or grapeseed oil for whole body. I use grapeseed oil as it absorbs well. Castor oil is too sticky and stuck my eyes together , not pleasant to use it on its own.. Also I learnt from a dr here on youtube that all oils absorb better if the skin is damp, so after you shower.
Use a shower cap
I have bad memories of castor oil as a kid. My mom gave it to me twice a year to clean out my body. But guess what it worked. i will only take it now if I am sick and nothing else works. I know that you can use it for other stuff and I may try it.
You’re not alone! My partner, Alex, is from Italy and echos the same thing .. apparently that’s mostly what it’s known for there lol 😊
Hi Jentri! Have you heard of anyone having the opposite effect from castor oil? I bought it from an Amazon seller that comes with an eyelash wand applicator. It said on the listing that it was hexane free and cold pressed but I was having burning sensation if any of it got in my eye and now have developed severe dry eyes where I didn’t have before. My eyelashes did get longer though but not worth it for the burning. Could it be that the formula I bought is not actually organic and clean? I can’t find anywhere else where someone experienced similar effect so might just be me 😕
Hi, great question - anything’s possible and I’m sorry that happened. But if you’re experiencing adverse reactions I’d recommend discontinuing it and talking to your health care provider to find an alternative to help you because one product/ingredient isn’t always right for everyone. ❤ FYI - if you’re wanting something for lashes specifically, you may also look at formulas with peptides, instead.
What brand did you get ?
My eyes were burning yesterday, and the day before. In summer, if this happens, there is always a cottomnwood tree around.. I don't remember when cottonwood seed flies around, but it seems to be my allergen. The past two nights, just by osmosis of studying castor oil for the eyes, a year or so ago, , I remembered it was beneficial, and gently applied it with my fingers, dampening them, so it didn't pull the skin. My eyes don't burn at all, so, I guess it was the oil. Overnight magic.
How wonderful to hear! Thanks for sharing this with us. ❤
What is the ratio coconut oil to castor oil for a diy salve? Thanks, just found you, now following !
Hi, 1:1 ratio works well 😊 Thanks for being here with us! ❤
Do you melt them together or just mix them at room temperature and let set?
@@diamemetivier8030 it depends on how solid the coconut oil is. I soften it enough to mix.
@@dabeestuff yes, perfect advice 😊
Good evening....what is the recipe you use for your pet....ratio of coconut oil and castor oil?

Coconut Oil: 3 tablespoons
Castor Oil: 2 tablespoons
😊
Does it matter if it is black caster oil? What is the difference between regular and black? Thank you.
Great question, Sue. The difference is the process / color / consistency. Some believe the ash helps with the scalp. I haven’t used it myself but would recommend the ‘original’ for full body use. 😊
Black comes from Jamaica apprently and is said to be excellent.
@@FairMindedgirl thanks for sharing ♥️
Cute dog and man in the background cameos. Umm good overview.
Thanks, Alyssa ❤🥰
Hi,
Just stumbled upon your channel and am grateful to find you. Does the castor oil have a difficult odor to tolerate. I am just getting into learning about it. Thank you for passing on your trials and experience. I just subbed and look forward to learning with you.🌷
Thank you so much for joining us here! The smell is not strong at all, I don’t think you’ll find it difficult to tolerate. 😊 Excited for you to experience all of its MANY benefits!! ♥️
I am very smell sensitive and have found no offending smell. Usually if it does it is old and rancid. Buy organic, cold pressed, hexane free in dark glass bottle and you should be ok. Can have extremely faint smell of peanut oil but minor minor.
It does not really smell, I’m super sensitive to fragrances and smells
@@jannwdesign thanks for sharing ♥️
The thing I don’t like about castor oil is that it is very sticky and stains anything it touches.
How do you deal with your pillow not getting stained when you sleep?
Hi, yes, it is a tackier oil for sure! I suppose it depends on where you apply it. I usually massage it on my eyelids and abdomen an hour before bed and it absorbs enough to not be messy. You can try mixing it with another oil, like jojoba or coconut (depending on where you're applying it) and see if that helps. :)
Towel
@@shannonsmiley6436 good advice 🤩
It's a small price to pay time wise, just put a thin towel over pillow and where you will lie down. You will get such remarkable results, you get compliments galore, START TODAY, ASAP to get results fast.❤
@@dorothyihmig5881 Yes, totally worth it! :)
Have you tried apple cider vinegar with the mother for your fibroid? My friend was taking a couple tablespoons of this a day for a couple months and the uterine fibroid she had that was huge ended up, cutting off all the blood supply and suffocated itself, and the body was re-absorbing it by the time she had it removed. The doctor said she had never seen anything like that and asked her what she had been doing and she told her she been drinking apple cider vinegar.
Hi, I haven’t heard of this for fibroids but thank you for sharing it with me. And so happy to hear your friend didn’t need surgery. ❤
@@JentriQuinn her surgery was scheduled for about six months after she was diagnosed with this huge, grapefruit size fibroid. She was taking apple cider vinegar for other general health reasons so she didn’t know that it affected her fibroid until she went in for her surgery. The doctor ended up cleaning up what was left, but said she’s never seen anything like it. It looked like all the blood flow had been cut off and that the fibroid pretty much suffocated itself and was being absorbed. She removed it anyways, but said her body probably would have absorbed it on her own. Good luck to you. Thanks for responding!
@@missyo4848 thank you so much for the love! Sounds like the same type I have (rarest type which has blood supply stem to ovary). So wonderful hearing that she can now put it behind her!! 🙏🏼♥️Please don’t be a stranger!

@JentriQuinn vitamin d3 5k helps wonders with shrinking fibroids. I was told I had several of various sizes and when I went back a year last the doc couldn’t find them. I take it everyday with my multi vitamin. Brands may matter I take Country Life I think is the name. Hope that helps!
Amazing to know, thank you! I’m so happy to hear about your experience! ❤
How do you keep your clothing from getting oily?
Hi. You can massage it in a bit so it absorbs more before putting on clothes or create a barrier with something you don’t mind getting oil on. 😊 I know some people say it stains their clothing but by doing it this way it hasn’t been an issue for me. When I use it on my eyelids I put it on an hour or more before bed so it doesn’t rub off. I hope this is helpful.
Thank you for this information. I am almost 70 and developed small deposits of xanthelasma around one eye about a year ago. Heard castor oil can help with this so been trying it for a few months. I got the Jamaican dark organic castor oil which I use on my eye lips and deeper wrinkles too. I think I see some improvement but it is slow. Have you heard about this helping with xanthelasma ? My cholesterol levels are normal as I have been on medication for a year and also on a low fat diet.
Hi Cindy, it’s my pleasure! I’m so sorry to hear you’re dealing with this. Yes, I’ve heard that castor oil can be a natural remedy for this. Do you leave it on your eyelids overnight?
@@JentriQuinn Yes I do apply a small amount on the area on my lid and under the eye at night and leave it on. The castor oil absorbs well. I think the deposits are shrinking slightly but it could be my wishful thinking. I try to hide these when I apply makeup to go out but having trouble being very successful . Any suggestions would be helpful, and much appreciated.
@@Cindy-beeIt’s such a delicate area but if it bothers you enough you can see a doctor… rather than having them cut off, some people have experienced luck with cryogenic treatments (where it freezes, scabs and falls off - maybe you’ve read about it?). I know that’s not ideal to hear, I’m sorry. As long as castor oil is helping though, I’d recommend sticking with that. ♥️♥️♥️ If I come across anything else, I’ll message you again!
@@Cindy-bee as far as makeup goes, using an eyelid primer first, if you don’t already, may help smooth out the area and give you a better makeup application / coverage. ❤
@@JentriQuinn Thank you I will look into this if it gets bigger but have heard it often returns and treatment is expensive.
What is your recipe for mixing castor oil with coconut oil?
Hi, it’s just a 1:1 ratio for my doggie balm 😊 doesn’t have to be so specific as long as the consistency works for you ❤
The contanier my oil came in was plastic is this ok
Hi Robin, if it’s a good quality brand, yes, just pour it into a dark glass bottle if possible to better preserve its integrity 😍
I'm just starting to use Castor Oil after seeing the videos on Utube. Here's my problem, all these videos are young girls, by young I mean 30-50. I am 77 years old and have wrinkles but other than that I have a decent figure, thick hair I am complimented on all the time, and no visible veins in my legs. I have wrinkles because I spent too much time in the sun and sun beds. Can a woman around my age do a video on the benefits of using castor oil and proof of reducing wrinkles? I mean a woman who just started using it a year or so ago, 40 years of use won't help me as I don't think I'll be around that long!! How long does it take results to start showing? I never had black circles under my eyes but at 70 I started to age and the worst part, even worse than wrinkles are black circles. To me that ages you much more than wrinkles. Thank you for considering my request!
Hi Nancy, thanks for your thoughts/questions. I’m in my late 40’s so I can only speak to my experience but I don’t think it matters what age you are to receive the benefits of castor oil if you’re being reasonable as to what it can and can’t do. The problem is most people will not likely not do it consecutively for as long as I have to actually show you results unless they’re desperate (like me!). Having said that, I don’t use it for anti-aging purposes, either. If you’re mostly concerned about dark circles, I would try something with caffeine because it helps constrict the blood vessels. You may have better luck! In addition, using a really solid moisturizer will do you just as well on your face as using castor oil because the more hydrated your skin is the brighter it is and less likely you’ll be to see wrinkles, exacerbated by dryness. 😊 And it shouldn’t take too long to see results from castor oil with dryness and caffeine for dark circles, especially if they’re vascular-related. In addition, there aren’t many things proven more effective than Retinol to help with wrinkles. But if you want a natural remedy, incorporate facial massage. I have lots of videos on this. By doing it every day, it changes the way the skin lays over the muscle for a smoother appearance. I hope this is helpful ❤
I'm 76. I've used castor oil on the back of my hands which were getting dark and translucent. It has brightened them up considerably. I even use it on my teeth which seem brighter and younger. I use it in my navel sometimes to help with stomach issues. It's pretty amazing
@@terryb3651 this is so wonderful to hear, Terry! Thank you for sharing this with us! ♥️
In addition to castor oil pack for fibroids, need to do detox and parasite cleanse, take food grade diatomaceous earth, and enzyme like serrapeptase, and take a LOT of Vit D3-like find a specialist that will inject you with 50,000iu once per week. If you can’t find someone to do that, just buy some and take whatever you’re willing to take. I personally take 10,000 per day.
Hi Kat, thank you for all of the info! I appreciate your thoughtfulness to share. 🙏🏼♥️
What is the difference between cold press hexane free castor oil, and expellor pressed hexane free castor oil??
Hi Jennifer, there's a good article here that explains everything in full: www.andersonintl.com (Debunking the debate between expeller pressed versus cold pressed oil). In short, cold pressed goes though expeller pressing while maintaining a controlled temp. The cold pressed is used on delicate oils to maintain flavor and nutrients. I hope this is helpful!
What about anti-aging , preventative or present time, ? Please I need help !
Hi Sandy, I’m delighted to help you! Do you mean anti-aging in general or specifically using castor oil?
Try Serrapeptase for uterine fibroids.
What is serrapeptase? My granddaughter has fibroids .
@@pieracollins6640 it’s an enzyme that removes fibrins from the body.

Hi Karen, I don’t thin mine out when I use it but in certain formulations I make, such as my nail oil, jojoba, apricot and argan oil have wonderful spread ability. I also mix it with coconut oil for my doggie balm and that spreads very easily! Hope this helps 😊
I have lost a lot of hair and my hair is SUPER dry. How do you recommend that i apply to hair? And do i only put it on my scalp? How often? Thanks!!!!
Hi Jules, great question. It depends on if you’re wanting to nourish your scalp, dry ends/hair or both. 😊 Applying it on your scalp can help nourish your hair follicles which can help prevent breakage for fuller looking hair. I think a squirt bottle is the easiest applicator to use for your hair. I recommend dividing your hair into at least 3-4 parts when applying it on the scalp, and using a little bit on the lower half of your hair or ends when using it as a conditioning agent. How often really depends on your goals, but once a week is likely a healthy practice since castor oil is so thick. I hope this helps! 🤩
@@JentriQuinn thanks so much! If I want to help my dry hair should I apply it throughout as well? Also how long do you recommend keeping it on my scalp? Much appreciate your help 🙏🏼
@@julesgilman4918 my pleasure! If you apply it on your scalp you can work it through the roots of your hair and brush it out toward the ends. After 20 minutes, shampoo it out. You can wet your hair beforehand and/or mix it with other carrier oils, like coconut oil, if you find that helpful. 😊
@@JentriQuinn thank you so much. I will try. I wonder if it can regrow hair by my hairline??? Anyhow so great that you are sharing information! Again, many thanks 🙏🏼

Can you use it mix with a moisturizer? I find it hard to use on its own since its so thick
Hi! Great question. You can, but you have to be careful to not mess with the preservatives when you mix things inside of formulations. You may want to try mixing it with little jojoba oil & see if that helps. 😊
Castor oil needs to be mixed in a carrier oil like olive oil, almond oil, grapeseed oil. I prefer the grapessed oil as it is light and absorbs well.
@@redrumax yes, so many good options depending on where/how you want to use it! 😊

I just started using this on my eyes , been not even a complete week yet , I have chronic dry eye , I am on a treatment ,that is extremely slow , I have heard amazing things bout this oil, but I have been dealing with this condition for 3 months now and I am feeling emotionally and physically tired of the symptoms , my social life has completely stopped , I can only go out for a certain amount of time and I can not wear any make up . I am wondering if I will ever be able to wear makeup again and resume a normal lifestyle . I have my sisters wedding coming up in the summer and I am worried that I wont be able to attend and be apart of it cuz of my eyes. I have never Ever had any issues with my eyes , I do not wear contacts either. This has really taken a tole on my life !
Hi. I’m so sorry to hear this. I know how chronic dry eyes can be challenging. Have you tried using a heated eyelid mask? Because the heat improves blood flow & circulation.
@@JentriQuinn - any type of masks makes my condition worse - they end up getting more swollen , I went for a facial this week and I put on an eye mask , and within the hour in a half , they were inflamed :( . I have ordered an eye mask that has castor oil in it , I will try to avoid putting the band on , maybe that is what is causing the swelling .
@@sababhatti6239 sorry for any confusion, I meant a heated eye mask (not the ones for skin care). I hope that you find some relief soon! 🙏🏼♥️
Add healthy oils and fat to your diet. When I was diagnosed with dry eye, the doctor wanted to schedule me to have my tear duct removed! I said, no thank you, and started researching. I found out that I needed more oil/ fat. So, I stayed eating salmon three times a week. That was 5 years ago. My dry eyes are so much better now. One eye still tears occasionally but they are no longer super sensitive and itchy and don't get horrible at nighttime. Castor oil does help with dry eye slather or over your eyelids before bed and rub it in, keeping your eyes closed. A tiny bit will seep in at the lash line, but that's a good thing. Do that for three consecutive nights and see if you don't improve considerably!
@@heatherb918 hi heather, thank you for sharing all of this with us! ♥️
Hi jentri , so have you gotten the Fibriods removed?
Hi! Thanks for asking! No, I haven’t. When I had pain for three months straight, I went in and they told me I had a fibroid of the size of a grapefruit. Since then, I started using castor oil and changed my diet a bit and symptoms improved tremendously. At my one year follow up it did not get bigger so I was relieved. As long as symptoms are controlled, I will likely not opt for surgery. ♥️
@@JentriQuinn so I have one more question? Is your belly bloated? The reason I ask because women that have a fibroid the size of a grapefruit, there belly is big and bloated.
@@miyalopez5925 at times, yes, it has looked like I was pregnant. The castor oil really seems to help with a lot of that! I think my diet has helped, too.❤
@@JentriQuinn thank you for replying 😊 I have Fibriods too but I don't think they are the size of a grapefruit yet. And also a cyst on my ovary. And I don't start my menstrual period only once a year and I just had it last week with bad cramps heavy flow too. I go see a new obgyn doctor next month, hopefully they take care of me. Because I've been through 3 obgyn doctors and no help. So we're can I get the castrol oil? Maybe that will help until I go to my appointment.
@@miyalopez5925 I had a cyst that was equally as large years ago, too, and it went away on its own but my cycle was pretty regular. As far as fibroids, and what I’ve learned, they decrease with age age, after menopause. My doctor informed me that she was not concerned as much about the size of it as she was the symptoms. So managing those is key. What helped me the most besides castor oil is really trying to eat better - limiting processed foods and too much red meat. Those tend to irritate my fibroid. I recommend magnesium glycinate and Hyland's Naturals No. 8 Cell Salt Mag Phos 6X, PMS Relief, for cramps. Hope some of this helps! You can find all the castor oils mentioned on Amazon. ❤ I hope you find some relief soon!!!
I think we should get a tub of castor oil and just dive into it every night 😂
You may be right! 😂
Castor Oil does have a lot of benefits, however when using it to shrink fibroids it might be too effective. I used it for a few weeks as a pack at night it did seem to help but ultimately I ended up having a full hysterectomy with removal of 23 fibroids from walnut to softball size. My surgery should have taken about an hour but ended being almost 5 hours due to the toughness of the fibroids, caused by the shrinking from the Castor Oil. Use it wisely, and if you end up having fibroid surgery, advise your surgeon that you have been using Castor Oil.
Hi Mary, Thank you for sharing your experience and being here with us. ❤
could you pls explain more about what castor oil did to your toughness fibroid? did it cause you to have full hysterectomy instead of myomectomy?
