Castor Oil 24/7: One Oil for Beauty, Balance & Beyond

by Dr. Marisol Teijieiro, N.D. (inactive) | May 30, 2025 | Castor Oil, wellness | 0 comments

Hi, I’m Dr. Marisol, founder of Queen of the Thrones®. And if you’re anything like I was—exhausted by long routines, frustrated with breakouts, and standing in front of a cluttered shelf of half-used beauty products—know that I see you. I was you.

I didn’t start out as a clean beauty advocate. I started as a woman struggling to make sense of my own body. Sound familiar?

When nothing worked, I went looking for something real

Back when I was in naturopathic college, I tried everything to get clear skin and feel better in my own body. I bought the creams. The serums. The latest “miracle” oils. But nothing seemed to bring it all together. Everything felt like a temporary fix.

I needed something simple. Something that didn’t just treat one issue—but supported my whole self.

That’s when I started to dig deep into traditional remedies. And one kept showing up again and again: Castor Oil.

I was skeptical—Until I experienced it for myself

I’ll be honest—I didn’t expect much at first. I remember holding the bottle, thinking, “Okay, how is this thick, sticky oil supposed to be my skincare, haircare, lash serum, and everything else in between?” 

I had already spent years chasing shiny promises from the beauty industry, filling my shelves with jars, tubes, and tinctures that rarely lived up to the hype.

But when I started using Castor Oil consistently—on my face, my scalp, my brows, my belly—I noticed something I hadn’t felt in a long time: ease.

It didn’t burn, sting, or dry me out. It didn’t require five complicated steps or a late-night Google search to figure out how to use it. It was just… simple. And it worked.

 

What truly amazed me was how multi-functional it became:

  • I used it as a gentle oil cleanser that left my skin soft, not stripped.

     

  • I massaged it into my scalp and started seeing stronger, healthier-looking hair.

     

  • I ditched my expensive lash serums and just dabbed it on at night.

     

  • I even crafted my own less-mess Castor Oil Pack because, deep down, I craved something that wasn’t just surface-level care—I wanted ritual, comfort, connection.

Before I knew it, this one bottle started replacing half my beauty cabinet. Not because I was trying to cut corners, but because I didn’t need all the other stuff anymore. 

Castor Oil was doing more for me than ten products ever had.

And that’s when it clicked: sometimes, the simplest things—especially the ones passed down through centuries—are the most powerful.

And I’ve packed everything I learned—the how-to’s, the rituals, the unexpected beauty hacks—into my book, Castor Oil Glow-Up

Whether you’re just getting started or ready to take your ritual deeper, it’s your go-to guide for radiant, natural beauty and self-care with Castor Oil.

Starting Queen of the Thrones®

As a naturopathic doctor, I began recommending Castor Oil to my patients—but I saw the same thing happening over and over again: they were overwhelmed too. Between trying to find a clean, high-quality oil and DIY’ing messy packs with plastic wrap and old rags, they gave up before they even began. Can you relate?

So I decided to change that.

I created Queen of the Thrones® to make Castor Oil rituals easy, clean, and approachable. Less mess. No mystery. Just a simple, powerful way to reconnect with your body and your beauty—inside and out.

Here’s what I know now, after 20+ years of using Castor Oil personally, professionally, and passionately:

  • Beauty doesn’t have to be complicated.

     

  • The answers aren’t always in the latest trend—they’re often in the oldest traditions.

     

  • And sometimes, the most nourishing thing you can do for yourself is to slow down, simplify, and trust that nature knows what she’s doing.

     

I still use Castor Oil every single day. For my skin. My scalp. My lashes. My sleep. My routine isn’t full of 15 steps anymore. It’s full of intention.

You don’t need more. You just need this.

So if you’re feeling burnt out by beauty overload… If you’re tired of wondering what’s actually in the jar you’re slathering on your face… If you want a clean, natural ritual that makes you feel connected—not just “corrected”…

Start here:

  • One bottle of Organic Golden Castor Oil.
  • Real results.
  • Your 24/7 go-to for clean beauty and wellness.

Because glowing up isn’t about adding more—it’s about coming back to what works, agreed?

How I use Castor Oil 24/7 (and you can too)

Once I saw what this one oil could do, I started using it… everywhere. What began as a skin fix turned into a full-body ritual—clean, simple, and deeply nourishing. 

Here’s how Castor Oil became my daily go-to:

Skincare, simplified

Instead of juggling a separate cleanser and moisturizer—and hoping they play nice together—I started using Castor Oil for both. 

One step. One ingredient. One tiny moment of calm in a hectic day.

I massage it onto my face at night, watching it melt away makeup, SPF, and the chaos of the day. It doesn’t strip my skin or leave it squeaky—it leaves it nourished, soft, and comforted. 

That “tight” feeling I used to get from foaming cleansers? Gone.

But what surprised me most was what happened over time. My skin started to look… calmer. Like it finally had a chance to breathe

The redness around my nose faded. The flakiness on my cheeks softened. My skin tone appeared more even-looking. 

I no longer felt the need to “cover up” as much—and that, for me, was huge.

The fine lines around my eyes and mouth? They became less noticeable. My under-eyes looked brighter. I began to recognize my skin again—not through the lens of what needed to be fixed, but what was finally being supported.

It wasn’t just skincare anymore—it was self-care.

That simple, oil-based ritual turned into something that actually felt good. Not just on my skin—but in my life. And now, I honestly can’t imagine my routine without it.

Hair care without the fuss (or heat)

I used to think deep conditioning meant an hour of juggling clips, plastic caps, and a hair dryer blasting my head while I sat awkwardly on the edge of the tub. Honestly? It felt more like a chore than self-care.

But when I started using Castor Oil with the Beauty Hair Wrap, everything changed.

Now, I apply the oil to my scalp and strands, wrap it up, and just go about my evening. It’s like giving my hair a spa day without turning my bathroom into a science experiment.

No heat. No dripping. No time-consuming routine. 

The best part? The results speak for themselves. My scalp feels hydrated and nourished—goodbye, dry flakes and irritation. My ends look smoother and less brittle. And that annoying midday frizz? Not a problem anymore.

And yes, the shine is real. That healthy-looking, glossy, bouncy kind of shine you can’t fake with styling products.

Plus, there’s something deeply grounding about this ritual—massaging the oil into my scalp at the end of a long day feels wonderfully calming. It’s a reminder to slow down and nourish myself from the root (literally).

And the bonus? I’ve cut way down on plastic bottles and mystery-ingredient masks. Just a glass bottle of organic Castor Oil, a Beauty Hair Wrap, and a few quiet minutes to myself.

Ahhh, bliss.

I go into all of this (and so much more) in my book Castor Oil Glow-Up. Inside, you’ll find 21+ beauty rituals to nourish yourself from head to toe.

Self-love for the neck, tummy, and body

Aging gracefully means embracing the shifts in your body—but also honoring it with care. 

For me, that looks like taking a few moments each day to gently massage Castor Oil into areas I once ignored or felt self-conscious about—my neck, chest, tummy, hips.

On my neck and décolleté, I used to notice that thin, crepey texture and those fine lines that seem to sneak up out of nowhere. But with regular use, the skin here looks and feels smoother—more supple, more supported, especially when combined with a Thyroid Castor Oil Pack to help lock in the benefits of Castor Oil. 

It’s not about chasing “perfect,” it’s about feeling comfortable in my skin.

I also massage it into my tummy and thighs, where stretch marks and dimples live—and honestly, where a lot of self-judgment used to live too. 

What I’ve found is that Castor Oil softens more than just skin. It softens the way I speak to myself.

When I combine it with my Liver Castor Oil Pack, it’s like giving my belly a gentle hug. I feel more relaxed, grounded, and yes—sometimes my tummy even looks a little flatter. 

But more importantly, I feel good in my body. Supported, comforted, and grounded.

This isn’t about fixing flaws. It’s about reconnecting with the body you live in. With your touch. With intention. And with love.

Little luxuries: Nails, lashes & brows

Here’s something I didn’t expect: how much peace I’d feel from tending to the tiniest parts of myself.

We always focus on the “big” parts of beauty routines—skin, hair, makeup—but I found real joy in the small, quiet rituals. 

Rubbing a drop of Castor Oil into my nails at night became a comforting routine. It softens my cuticles, nourishes the skin around them, and my nails? They look healthier and stronger.

So you see, it’s not about polish—it’s about presence.  

And let’s talk lashes and brows. For years, I spent money on growth serums I couldn’t even pronounce the ingredients in. Now? Just a swipe of Castor Oil with the Brow & Lash Wand before bed. 

That’s it. No tingling, no side effects—just nature doing what it’s done for generations.

Over time, my brows have looked fuller. My lashes less sparse. I wake up and feel like I have something going on up there, even before I’ve had coffee.

It’s amazing what happens when you care for yourself—not out of pressure to perfect, but from a place of presence. 

These little luxuries have turned into big wins for my confidence, and they can for you, too.

In my book, Castor Oil Glow-Up, I walk you through exactly how I use Castor Oil for my nails, brows, and lashes, with tips you can try tonight. 

Grab your copy and begin building your own ritual library.

From daytime rituals to nighttime grounding

My days can get hectic—emails, errands, decision fatigue—it’s easy to feel scattered.

That’s why I love the Castor Oil Belly Button Roll-On. It’s such a simple ritual, but somehow, it recenters me. Just a few seconds of applying it mid-morning or before heading into a busy afternoon, and I feel more anchored—like I’ve hit a mini reset button.

There’s something almost symbolic about starting with the belly button—your first connection to nourishment and life. It brings me back to me, especially on the days when I feel pulled in too many directions.

Then at night, I give myself permission to slow all the way down. I wrap myself in my Castor Oil Pack, dim the lights, and exhale. It’s my pause. My signal to transition from doing to being.

When I pair it with the Beauty Sleep Eye Mask, the comfort is unmatched—it’s like a full-body exhale, a warm hug for my body. 

It’s not just about sleep; it’s about resting well. Letting go of the day. Tuning back in.

These aren’t big, dramatic rituals. They’re quiet, intentional choices that help me care for myself on a deeper level. And over time, they’ve become the foundation of my wellness—small things that create big shifts.

One oil. So many ways to love yourself better

If there’s one thing I’ve learned on this journey—from stressed-out skincare shelves to starting Queen of the Thrones®—it’s this:

You don’t need more. You just need what works—and what feels good.

For so long, I chased products that promised glow, fullness, firmness, clarity… all the things. And I ended up with a bathroom full of half-used bottles and a beauty routine that felt more like a full-time job. Honestly? It left me feeling overwhelmed, not cared for.

But Castor Oil changed that.

It’s not just about glowing skin or shiny hair (though, yes—you get those too). It’s about simplifying, about returning to something real and time-tested. It’s about using one nourishing oil to do so much—cleanse your skin, moisturize your body, soften the look of fine lines, condition your hair and scalp, support your lashes and brows, care for your nails, and even help you rest better at night.

It’s about reclaiming your rituals.

Because when your beauty routine becomes yours—not something sold to you, but something that reflects your needs and rhythms—that’s when everything starts to shift

The noise quiets. The pressure fades. You start feeling more like yourself again.

That’s what Castor Oil gave me: permission to slow down, take care, and connect with myself in a deeper, simpler way. And now, I get to pass that along to you.

So whether you’re starting with one drop on your lashes or a full-body Castor Oil ritual, know this: you don’t need to do it perfectly. You just need to start. 

One bottle. One step. One loving moment at a time.

And if you want step-by-step inspiration to guide you along the way, my book Castor Oil Glow-Up has you covered with over 21 clean beauty rituals.
