Q Tips can be used to apply castor oil to lashes.
Castor oil is a colorless vegetable oil that can lengthen and thicken eyelashes. This oil works by moisturizing and strengthening the lashes, making them less likely to break. To use castor oil for eyelashes, apply the oil to the base of your clean lashes every night. In the morning, gently wash the oil off your lashes with water or a mild facial cleanser. When used every night, castor oil should improve your lashes within a few weeks.
When applied carefully, castor oil can help lashes appear longer, fuller, and healthier.
To start using castor oil on your lashes, buy an all-natural castor oil. Keep the oil in an easily accessible place next to your toiletries. This should help you remember to apply the oil before you go to bed at night. While you can use castor oil throughout the day, applying it at night will give your lashes more time to saturate and start growing.
Castor oil can be used at night and washed off the next morning.
Before applying castor oil to your eyelashes, wash your face and pay close attention to removing your eye makeup. Once makeup is removed, dip a clean mascara wand or Q-tip® in castor oil. Remove any excess oil from the wand and apply the oil starting at the base of the lashes. When using castor oil for your eyelashes, be careful that the oil does not get in your eyes. If the oil gets into your eyes, immediately flush the area with water to prevent irritation.

The next step in using castor oil for eyelashes is to remove the oil in the morning. When you dress for the day, gently wash the oil off your lashes with water or makeup remover. To prevent eyelashes from falling out, do not rub or pull on them. If you forget to remove the oil, the makeup may not adhere to your skin and eyelashes. You can also use castor oil to make your lashes look healthy and luminous if you decide not to wear eye makeup.
It may take several weeks for a person to notice the results of using castor oil for eyelashes.
To reap the full benefits of castor oil and lash growth, it is important to give the oil enough time to improve the condition of your lashes. When you use castor oil for your lashes, it can take several weeks before you start noticing results. To maintain your results, don’t stop using castor oil when your lashes start to look fuller. Since eyelashes have a life cycle of a few weeks, they will return to their original state if you decide to stop using castor oil. Keep applying castor oil every night or several times a week to keep your lashes thick and long.
