The product shown is Lakay Delicacies Castor Oil, also known as Lwil Maskreti or Palma Christi, also known as Haitian Black Castor Oil.
Made from the seeds of the Ricinus communis plant. It is a traditional product in Haiti, where the castor beans are roasted and then pressed to create a thick, golden oil. The oil is known for its high content of ricinoleic acid, as well as essential fatty acids and vitamin E.
Haitian black castor oil is often used in hair and skin care:
- Hair: It is used to promote hair growth and thickness, moisturize the scalp, and reduce hair breakage.
- Skin: The oil's moisturizing properties can help hydrate dry skin, and it is also believed to have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties that may help with issues like acne and minor skin irritations.
- Nails: It can be applied to nails and cuticles to help prevent brittleness and promote stronger, healthier nails.
It is also used for other purposes, such as a massage oil to soothe muscle aches and joint pain. Some sources also mention its use as a laxative, but it is important to consult a healthcare professional before using it for internal purposes.
