If you’ve been juggling several different growth serums in an attempt to get the hair on your scalp, lashes, and brows to flourish, it might be time to swap them for a single product that can do it all. The Sky Organics Castor Oil has earned rave reviews (over 17,000, to be exact) from Amazon shoppers who say it’s helped them grow thicker, longer hairs on sparse, thinning areas. In fact, the $18 bottle of organic oil is so loved, one bottle gets purchased every minute.
Each 16-ounce bottle contains USDA-certified organic, 100 percent pure, cold-pressed castor oil. Free of fragrance, preservatives, and alcohols, you can rest assured knowing that you won’t be applying any toxic ingredients. Equipped with loads of fatty acids, reviewers say the oil nourishes dry scalps (including sensitive ones) and conditions lashes and brows with every application.
According to New York City-based dermatologist and founder of Skinfluence, Dr. Marina Peredo, castor oil can be quite the anti-inflammatory solution due to its active ingredient, ricinoleic acid. Since the oil also contains triglycerides, it helps hydrate and retain moisture in drier areas on the body. “In terms of hair growth, I can see how it may help since many times hair breaks due to the fact that it is dry,” Dr. Peredo told InStyle over email. “Since castor oil does have moisturizing effects, it will help create lashes and brows that are shiny and moisturized.”

It’s so popular among Amazon shoppers, the oil has managed to earn the number one spot on Amazon’s best carrier oils list, and the number two rank on Amazon’s best hair treatment oils list.
“I had an allergy on my scalp that lasted 10 months and made the back of my head bald,” wrote one shopper. “I was really desperate to try a hair growing product to bring my hair back. I tried this one because of the good reviews, and because of the ingredients since my scalp was really sensitive. I didn’t expect the outcome of this product, but my hair became much softer and thicker than ever before.”
“It has made my hair thicker, and I mean VERY THICK. But the biggest result is from my eyelashes,” said another. “I’ve applied it every night for almost two weeks, and ladies, truthfully it has worked wonders. My eyelashes have grown so long and pretty!”
