Organic Castor Oil, Virgin

Our Castor Oil is cold pressed from the organic seeds of the Castor Plant (Ricinus communis), thus retaining its valuable nutrients. It is heavier in texture than other vegetable oils, yet very mild and odorless.

Packaging: To preserve and maintain their beneficial properties for years, our 4 fl oz and 16 fl oz Vegetable Oils are packaged in light resistant, dark glass amber bottles with a pressure sealed lid and a taper seal poly liner. This elegant bottle is the perfect way to protect light-sensitive liquids, because the dark amber glass helps prevent light degradation. The 1 gallon sizes are packaged in a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) jug, with a tight-fitting plastic lid to help protect contents from moisture and air.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, and avoid direct sunlight and heat. Preserving Oils: If stored improperly for long periods of time, the oils may become rancid. They have a minimum 2 year shelf life when stored properly. When making products with vegetable oils, you can also add 2% Vitamin E Oil to act as a natural preservative.
