One ingredient: cold-pressed organic castor oil, 90% ricinoleic acid. That unusually high share is what makes the oil thick and slow to absorb, so it stays on the surface and seals moisture in instead of disappearing into it. On hair it coats each strand, smoothing frizz and leaving a soft shine, and worked into the scalp it eases dry, flaky patches. On the body it softens the rough spots — elbows, knees, heels, cuticles — and holds hydration in when you smooth it over damp skin after a shower.
One bottle, four uses. Scalp and hair, lashes and brows, skin, and nails and cuticles. See how to use it.
How to use
Warm a few drops between your fingertips. Massage into the scalp, smooth over dry skin, or work into nails and cuticles. Leave on overnight or for at least 30 minutes before washing. Patch test before first use.

Questions
Is BIOCENTIC castor oil safe to use near the eyes?
Use the 50 mL brush along the lash line, keep it out of the eyes, patch test first, and stop if irritation occurs.
What does 90% ricinoleic acid mean?
It is the share of castor oil's signature fatty acid. Ours tests at 90%, with 3% oleic and 4% linoleic acid. Studies of castor varieties typically report about 83 to 89%.
What is the difference between the 500 mL and the 50 mL?
The same oil. The 50 mL has a brush applicator for lashes and brows.
