Baar Cold-Pressed Castor Oil, Cold-Processed, Hexane-Free, Palma Christos, for Skin, Hair, Massage & Castor Oil Packs, BPA-Free Bottle, 32 oz

I have been using castor oil packs for over 30 years. I use the small size sold by Baar. It really doesn't have to be too big, just measure from your navel around to the end of your left rib. I often cut the pack into smaller sizes if I'm using them for other areas of the body, Any problem that will benefit from increased circulation and increased lymph flow. The whole idea is that the oil is absorbed, and like any oil, it lubricates; it helps to bring nutrition to the area via the blood stream and remove waste via the lymph system; a simplified explanation. I'm not a medical practitioner. It's good to use a heating pad,securing it in place with a towel folded length-wise or a LOOSE ace bandage. It can also be used without a heating pad. I know people who put the pack on, wrap plastic wrap loosely around it, and sleep with it all night. I haven't tried that, but the heat of the body drives the oil in like a heating pad would. It would probably take a little longer though. The quality of the Baar product is excellent. I don't even find it that difficult to remove from my skin. Just remember to protect your bedding. I bought a shower curtain liner that I keep just for use with castor oil packs. Cheap and good protection. I put an old towel on top of it for comfort. But this way I can use a lot of oil and not worry about leaks. Castor oil is the very best treatment for the bumps and bruises that toddlers are prone to. You know how they always fall into or against things as they learn to walk. You can even dab a little on a child's forehead and the child won't cry. It works faster than ice and removes the pain right away. Of course I am not advocating neglecting to get professional medical help where a serious injury may have occurred. I'm talking about cuts and bumps. if you are a new user, be sure to buy one of the helpful books on the subject to inform yourself of the many uses of this wonderful oil. And honestly? I try it on things that aren't in the books. Never seems to make anything worse! Just better!

Baar knows their stuff. This is the best for castor oil packs.

I like the product. It softens my skin and helps with pain. It does not smell bad like the castor oil my mom used to give me every morning. It's convenient and easy to apply. My only complaint is that there is no way to tell how much is left in the container. Due to its thickness, shaking doesn't really help.

I love all of Baar Products. The castor oil is my favorite. I use it for castor oil packs. Very pure ingredients, non hexane free. I wish this one came with a pump bottle applicator though. But I love using it with the Baar Flannel Packs.

Perfect! This is a very nice roll on oil. Convenient and easy application

Bottle is a little unwieldy. Needs a shape like a syrup or dish soap bottle

Just received this brand of castor oil. I had bruise for over a week from a blood work up. I applied the castor oil, the first day I received it, without a bandage. I applied more castor oil overnight with small bandage and the bruise was larger than the bandage. Next morning the old bandage fell off, I applied more castor oil using the same size bandage now the bruise does not show outside of the bandage. This is only the second day I am using the castor oil. I also applied the oil to my hands. One of my fingers would seize up on one hand, after using the castor oil my finger did not lock up. All my fingers are supple.I plan on reading more uses for castor oil and try it out. I received the product within a week. I am happy with the supplier.
