Your questions
Frequently asked questions
How do I apply it to my lashes?
In the evening, on clean, make-up-free lashes, with a clean mascara wand. A very small amount is enough; avoid contact with the eyes.
How long before I see results?
Applied every evening, allow a few weeks of regular use for visibly fuller, shinier lashes and brows.
Why is it so thick?
Its high ricinoleic acid content gives it a viscous texture. For hair and body, mix it with a more fluid oil (sweet almond, argan): it spreads and rinses out more easily.
How do I do a hair oil bath?
Mix it with a fluid oil, massage into the scalp and lengths, leave on for at least 30 minutes (or overnight), then shampoo twice.
Can I use it during pregnancy?
As a precaution, avoid applying it to the belly, breasts and lips during pregnancy and breastfeeding. It can be used on lashes and hair. If in doubt, ask your doctor or midwife.
Can I add essential oils?
Yes, a few drops are enough, for example lemon for the nails. Follow the precautions for use of each essential oil.
How long does a bottle last?
About 30 to 40 days for 100 ml as a hair oil bath, and much longer for lashes and nails (see “Product details”).
How should I store it?
Keep the bottle tightly closed, away from light and heat, and use within 12 months of opening.
