Escentia Jamaican Black Castor Oil (50ml / 100ml)
Escentia Jamaican Black Castor Oil is a 100% pure, natural carrier oil derived from roasted castor beans (Ricinus communis). Known for its thick texture and nutrient-rich composition, this traditional oil has been used for generations in haircare and skincare routines.
Carefully processed to retain its natural properties, Escentia Jamaican Black Castor Oil is free from additives and preservatives, making it a reliable choice for those seeking simple, natural personal care solutions.
What Makes Jamaican Black Castor Oil Unique?
Unlike standard castor oil, Jamaican Black Castor Oil is produced by roasting the castor beans before extraction. This traditional method results in:
- A darker colour
- A thicker consistency
- A richer, more robust composition
This makes it particularly popular in hair and scalp care routines, where a more intensive oil is preferred.
