How To Use Castor Oil To Remove Skin Pigmentation?
Castor oil can penetrate deeper than other oils as it is rich in fatty acids and antioxidant properties. Also, it helps in cell regeneration and fades pigmentation fast.
Take a few drops of castor oil and apply it to the affected areas. For optimal results, gently massage in circles.
Add castor oil to a few drops of lemon juice. The vitamin C in lemon juice activates the pigment reduction properties of castor oil. Lemon provides a quick, simple solution to skin pigmentation.
Add some aloe vera gel with caster oil. While aloe vera hydrates and softens the skin, castor oil helps to reduce pigmentation.
Make a mixture of castor oil and some turmeric powder. Since turmeric is an anti-inflammatory agent and helps in fighting inflammation, this mixture reduces inflammation and fades hyperpigmentation.
Before you use castor oil on your face do a patch test. Stop using it if irritation occurs, and consult a dermatologist.
According to a study conducted by the Dermatology Department of All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), castor oil contains therapeutic fatty acids that help in reducing damage caused due hyperpigmentation and promote even skin tone.
