Castor Oil
Castor oil is a natural thick, clear oil that helps produce a rich, creamy lather in soap. Castor oil is a humectant which attracts moisture to your skin. We suggest using 5% - 8% castor oil in cold process/hot process soap recipes. When castor oil is used more than 10% in cold process/hot process soap, it can make your soap sticky.
Gallons are sold by volume and not weight. However, one gallon weighs approximtely 8 pounds.
Castor oil is also added to some lip balm recipes, and massage oil recipes to provide a silky glide.

Natures Garden offers a great value and phenomenal shipping time. This castor oil is perfect in my soaps and it arrived within a couple days! I ordered on Monday and it arrived, along with my fragrance oils, by Wednesday. Natures Garden has the best soap making supplies and fragrance oils. They are my number one supplier for both!

I use castor oil in every batch of soap. This castor oil works great and it's nice to have it in a bigger bottle than what is available at the local supermarket. Nice pale color so it has little effect on the desired color of your final bar.

I bought a few bottles of this castor oil to use in hp soap. It adds a really creamy lather to soap. The price is super affordable. I paid a lot more than this in Walmart when I ran out and needed 1 oz to finish a recipe. This price is the best I've found online.

I made the mistake of running out of caster oil right in the middle of making soap so I had to have hubby run out to the drug store and buy me a couple of those little tiny bottles which cost more than ONE bottle from here. I ordered 3 that night and wont be making that mistake again!
