Plastic bottle
A plastic bottle….. seriously?If you claim to have a bio high quality product, you must package it in a glass bottle. Plastic bottle will leak trace amounts of plastic into the product.

Ottimo, anche se ha un leggerissimo odore non proprio gradevole. Lo uso per far crescere ciglia, sopracciglia e anche i capelli in alcuni punti (vado in palestra quindi ho spesso i capelli legati e ne uso un po’ giusto nelle zone intorno al viso), come maschera idratante per i capelli e ogni tanto ne applico un po’ sulle labbra (solitamente prima di andare a letto e il giorno dopo sono morbidissime, consiglio di esfoliarle prima dell’applicazione). Le mie ciglia inferiori sono diventate davvero lunghe dopo qualche mese, quasi quanto quelle superiori.

I have ordered from Naissance before, (Neem oil on that occassion), and their quick delivery and excellent product then is what made me choose them this time for the Castor oil.This is the first time I have used Castor oil and I am impressed.I’m using it as a moisturiser for face, body and as a leave in hair conditioner.Skin and hair feel great. I moisturised my face first, then used the tiny amount of residue left on the palms of my hands to condition my hair. As it is such a thick oil I knew that only a tiny amount would be needed to condition my very fine hair.As it is so thick, a little goes a long way. Some of it did end up soaking into the inside of my jammies, but I was expecting that, and I don’t consider that a problem. In future I will simply either apply then wipe off excess with a towel or kitchen roll before getting dressed, or just allow the excess to be absorbed by a pair of jammies and then either change the jammies or get dressed. For me this really is a minor issue that can be easily managed and the benefits far outway this issue. It really wasn’t that much that ended up on the inside of my jammies anyway and it’s not going to cause any permanent stains.Looks like I have finally found a suitable natural alternative to the 99.9% nasty chemicals commercial moisturisers and hair conditioners that I used to use, thankfully.Oh, and it also appears to have resolved the oily T zone area on my face that I used to have. I used to think that was just the way my skin was. Now I’m thinking that it was down to the commercial moisturiser.Natural is the way to go for sure.Love my Castor oil and thank you Naissance for another great product and quick service.
