Is castor oil good for wrinkles?

Castor oil can be beneficial for wrinkles as it deeply moisturizes the skin and contains ricinoleic acid, which has anti-inflammatory properties. It helps keep skin soft and may reduce the appearance of fine lines by improving hydration. The oil also contains antioxidants that protect against free radical damage. However, castor oil alone will not eliminate deep wrinkles. It works best as part of a complete skincare routine. Apply a small amount to clean skin at night, either alone or mixed with a lighter oil like jojoba. Some people may find it too heavy or experience breakouts, so patch test first.
