{"product_id":"banyan-botanicals-castor-oil-8-ounces","title":"Banyan Botanicals Castor Oil \/ 8 Ounces","description":"\u003cp\u003eCastor oil is just a bean that got pressed real hard until it gave up its oil. That's the whole story. No extra ingredients, no bean left behind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBanyan Botanicals Castor Oil comes cold-pressed, hexane-free, and about as unprocessed as a bottle of oil can get while still being something you'd want on your skin. Ayurvedic tradition has used castor oil for centuries, mostly rubbed on, not because it's trendy, but because it's thick, heavy, and sticks around long enough to actually do something. It's the oil equivalent of a guy who shows up to help you move and then stays for three hours because he's a good friend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat It's For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a traditional Ayurvedic oil used mainly for abhyanga, which is a fancy word for \"rub oil on your whole body and feel like a person again.\" It's thicker than most carrier oils, so it sits on the skin instead of sprinting off the way lighter oils do. That thickness is the whole personality of this product. It's not subtle. It's not going anywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports skin health and nourishment when used topically\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraditionally used in Ayurvedic self-massage (abhyanga) practice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports joint comfort and mobility with regular topical application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps maintain skin's natural moisture barrier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold-pressed and hexane-free, no shortcuts taken\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It's Made\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBanyan presses this cold, which means no heat was involved in coaxing the oil out of the bean. Cold-pressed just means they were patient about it. No hexane either, which is a solvent some companies use to squeeze out a little extra oil, the same way you'd use a trash compactor on a soda can to get the last drop out. Banyan skips that step. The oil comes out the honest way, slow and unbothered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow To Use It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarm a small amount between your palms and massage it into skin before a shower, or use it on hands, feet, elbows, wherever feels dry and ignored. It's dense, so a little covers a lot of ground. This is not a lotion that absorbs in ten seconds and disappears. This oil commits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach bottle holds 8 ounces, which doesn't sound like much until you realize how far a dense oil actually stretches. Part of Banyan Botanicals' line of traditional Ayurvedic oils, made for people who want their self-care routine to involve fewer ingredients they can't pronounce and more ingredients that are just, factually, a plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdetails data-v6=\"cosing\" data-src=\"brand\" open style=\"margin:0;border-top:1.5px solid rgb(232,232,225);background:transparent;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;padding:15px 36px;text-align:center;text-transform:uppercase;font-family:'Bebas Neue',sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:2.8px;color:rgb(50,16,4);user-select:none;\"\u003eIngredients\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding:4px 18px 20px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pure Castor oil\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirections:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use as a castor oil pack or as a nourishing massage oil to support healthy hair and vibrant skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails data-v6=\"coswarn\" open style=\"margin:0;border-top:1.5px solid rgb(232,232,225);background:transparent;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;padding:15px 36px;text-align:center;text-transform:uppercase;font-family:'Bebas Neue',sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:2.8px;color:rgb(50,16,4);user-select:none;\"\u003eWarnings\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding:4px 18px 20px;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll oils make surfaces slippery and can be combustible.
