Aloe Veda Distil Cold Pressed Hexane Free Castor Oil Review

Aloe Veda Distil Cold Pressed Hexane Free Castor Oil Review

By Pallavi

Hello Beauties,

Here i am with yet another one of my cult products. I like products which you can use in multiple ways. And some time back the concepts of oils have been quite a hit. You can use them in numerous ways be it on your hairs, skin or anywhere. Castor oil is one such significant oil. Since time immemorial people have been raving about this oil.

Aloe Veda Distil Cold Pressed Hexane Free Castor Oil Review, benefits of castor oil, Indian Beauty Blog

Actually, this oil is very thick and extremely sticky. And i have absolutely thin fine hairs. So, i thought that this oil will further weigh my hair down and i will have completely flat hair. But after researching a lot i thought that if i use this oil properly then, i will definitely get immense benefits out of this.

So, my first experience with this oil began with Aloe Veda Cold Pressed Hexane Free castor oil. Read on to know how this fared on me and the multiple uses of this oil.

What the Company claims: Distil’s Castor Oil has many medicinal and curative uses. Contains ricinoleic acid that inhibits many viruses and bacteria, and as castor oil is able to penetrate skin tissue deeply, this makes it an effective treatment for acne. The anti-bacterial and anti-fungicidal properties of ricinoleic acid protects the scalp and hair from infections that can cause hair loss. The omega-9 fatty acids in castor oil nourish the hair and prevent the scalp from drying. Rubbing castor oil on your scalp and the roots of your hair will regenerate new hair growth and also thicken thinning hair within months. Rub in a small amount around your eyes and face before bed, washing it off the next morning. Castor Oil breaks up external and internal scar tissue and prevents new scars from forming. It softens rough or thickened skin, including calluses and corns and cures skin infections like athletes foot and ringworm. Rub a small amount of castor oil over your stomach and thighs daily to prevent stretchmarks during pregnancy or periods of weight gain.

My experience with Aloe Veda Cold Pressed Hexane Free castor oil

Castor oil is one of the most famous oils available in market at present times. But people say that the best version of castor oil is cold pressed castor oil. This is believed to be the purest form of castor oil. Castor oil is thick in nature. So, actually you should buy it in the smallest bottle size, but i mistakenly bought the biggest one and it is lasting me since ages.

Anyways coming to this bottle it comes in thick plastic bottle which doesn’t breaks or spills oil even if thrown accidentally from a good height. The bottle has a little hole at the between which ensures little oil dispersion only. I use it on my hair. But i advise strongly not to use it directly, as it will make your hair too sticky and you will not be able to wash it off. So, i use these oils by blending it with other oils. This makes a very powerful connotation. This oil is believed to be hair growth stimulator. So, i have used it regularly on my eyebrow and you won’t believe i gained average amount of hair within a month or two. Many people use castor oil in their eyebrows every night.

Coming to the economy of this bottle single bottle will last you long enough. So, invest in the smaller one.

Editor’s Note: Yes, many use castor oil every night on eyebrows and eye lashes, definitely recommend trying this you are looking to grow your eyebrows or want thicker eye lashes. Also as mentioned by you, mixing it with other oils for your hair. And the mix also works well on stretch marks. Nice review Pallavi 🙂 Also would like to mention I love some of the Aloe Veda products, their French Lavender Body Wash is my all time favourite!

Do you use castor oil? How do you use it and which one?

Aloe Veda Avocado Face Wash Review

Aloe Veda Avocado Face Wash Review

Review by Shruti

What the Company claims: Aloe Veda’s Oil-Control Formula Wild Rose Face Cleanser contains active ingredients such as Aloe Vera and Glycerin that clears the facial pores and destroys bacteria in the face pores that can lead to breakouts and inflammation. It is oil-free and non-comedogenic, meaning it won’t clog the pores of your face. The active ingredients such as plant Glycerin and Allantoin will not strip your face of its natural oils but will cleanse the skin of bacteria, dirt, excess oils, toxins and dead skin cells and aid your face in shedding old skin.

Does not contain harsh ingredients such as Alpha Hydroxy acids, parabens and alcohol. Rinses off easily ensuring that skin does not get dry and itchy due to the sticky film deposited. Contains pure essential oils & nutrients to suit all skin type. The formula is cruelty free and 100% vegetarian.

Price: Rs 110/- for 100ml

It has arrived ! A good , value for money product. Aloe Veda Avocado Face Cleanser has ingredients as its name suggests Avocado, Wild rose and Glycerin. The company claims that the use of this face wash prevents break outs without drying the skin. The skin will retain its natural oils. The face wash does not contain any harmful ingredients such as Parabens or Alcohol. Its light pale pink in color and has a gel like consistency.

My personal experience with this product has been really good. The refreshing soft rosy fragrance of the face wash makes a hectic day less stressful. The after effects of this one leaves you with a smooth, glowing skin. Yes the natural oils are retained. I have used it maximum twice in a day. The experience has been very good. I would clearly rate the product on a higher scale.

The packing seems convenient. It comes in a plastic bottle .the face wash has to be squeezed out. The quantity dispensed is just right. Though the squeezing can get a little difficult since the bottle is not soft plastic.

Sadly it has silicones though that did not harm me..but those who are allergic to silicones, it might not suit them..and its not easily available.

Yes to the question if I would ever buy this one again. Maybe I will buy it always !
