castor oil

I bought a huge bottle of organic castor oil online for £20 for about a litre. It is for some marks i developed on my legs following steroid treatment which never really went completely. I have used it for about 4 nights and my legs look better already! Last night it was all over my hands it is quite sticky and i wiped the residue on my face and have woken up today and my skin looks amazing really even and smooth and plump looking. Worth a try maybe if you have not got the budget for £££ creams.

Yes, it's used to cleanse/remove make up, you can also take a spoon at night to, er, "cleanse the bowels"
amazingly versatile stuff, also natural and so cheap!

I keep looking at my face it has had a real effect. As much as some of the expensive creams I have stupidly bought in the past! Apparently it can make lashes grow in 2 weeks!

I have been using it for a while now on my face search oil cleansing on this forum its highly rated :)

Oh I didn't know you could cleanse with it I just put a layer on and went to sleep. The colour of my skin is less red and more even looking Am hoping this is a revelation for me as I have spent too much in the past!

I use it in OCM. Didn't know about lashes etc! Wooo!

QuietOhSoQuiet · 21/02/2012 19:15

so is this ocm thing really worth giving a go pinot

I am mid 40s and I have for the past couple of years developed oily,spotty,blacheady skin with added dryness to complicate things.I also suffer blotches and redness and am generally fed up and miserable.I ordered this alphah liquid gold at £28 a bottle the other night as I would just like to look like a grown up.

also is it a good method to use on a spotty,blackheady 12 yr old girl who is as miserable as sin since the hormones hit,

sorry op for hijacking.
