Haven't tried using castor oil. Sounds really good…maybe I can make a concoction of this when I have all the ingredients. Haven’t tried using castor oil.

I've been in love with DIY cleansing oil for a few weeks now. I use a mix of castor oil, sesame seed oil, and grapeseed oil and use it for oil cleansing method. It has been helping in improving me and my youngest sister skin very much and a marvelous makeup remover, including the waterproof mascara. It makes us purge but we don't mind, for a greater good. Our skins aren't that horrible either so I've been extremely happy with this. And my mom finally jump in the bandwagon, too! Hi! I’ve been in love with DIY cleansing oil for a few weeks now.

I use a simple olive oil, mix it with some organic castile soap and tada. Or I change to grapeseed oil for summer, and my favorite is rice bran oil. If you have a simple cleanser, (I prefer non foaming, less drying,) that doesn't have a great deal of chemical ingredients you can mix your oil with that, and it is easy to rinse. I say find one oil you like, and then every couple months, change it. I've been doing it since my late 20's, and I am now 48. Great stuff, and sometimes depending on my mood, I don't moisturize afterwards. If you want to go a bit further, then buy the Stridex pads for afterwards, I use .05% just to completely exfoliate/tone. Or use plain baking soda or brown sugar, or plain sugar (organic if at all possible) mix with your oil or without it, it's great for a gentle exfolaition and rinses off very well. If you really want a great oil cleanser that rinses well, then buy saponified olive oil. This oil is mixed with water and rinses off great. You can normally purchase it already made for around 6-7 bucks for 8 oz. I love it, and I normally purchase it, and put a bit of tea tree oil, or rosemary extract in it. Research and learn, it's great! You truly do not need all those oils, you really don’t.
