Have you ever wanted fuller, healthier eyebrows and thicker, longer lashes? The natural answer may be Jamaican black castor oil and it’s taking the world by storm. This 100% natural product has long been used for a range of health benefits and is now part of many people’s grooming and beauty regimes.
JBCO as it is more commonly known is made from roasting castor beans and then pressing them to create a dark, thick liquid that has many benefits for the skin and hair. As a natural, organic product it’s increased in popularity over the last 10 years for both men and women.
Not only does JBCO contain essential fatty acids such as omega-6 and 9 which are good for skin and hair health, but it also has ricinoleic acid that is an excellent antibacterial and antifungal component as well as antioxidants that support the production of keratin, a protein that is vital for hair growth.
JBCO for Eyebrows
Your eyebrows can certainly define your face and careful shaping and maintenance are essential for a healthy, vibrant look. JBCO is not only used to condition the eyebrows but can also encourage thicker growth of hair – so if you’ve found your brows gradually disappearing over the years, Jamaican black castor oil may be just the thing you are looking for.
- You should apply the castor oil in a small quantity to the eyebrows when you have some time to spare – the best time is to put it on overnight before you go to bed.
- Make sure that the eyebrow area is clean of makeup and then use a cotton bud to gently massage the oil into the brow area. Be careful not to get any in your eyes. If you do, ensure you wash it out immediately.
- You may need to put a towel on your pillow if you are using JBCO overnight. In the morning, you simply wipe away any oil that is left and start your morning grooming routine.

JBCO for Eyelashes
The eyelashes are more delicate but there is a lot of anecdotal evidence that they can help you grow them longer and fuller. Make sure that you only use a very small amount of JBCO on a cotton bud and apply it gently before you go to sleep at night. Again, you need to make sure that you remove all makeup before applying.
If used regularly, you should expect to see fuller eyelashes in about 2-3 weeks, though for some it can take a few months. It’s important to use a high quality, Jamaican black castor oil that doesn’t contain other additives.
Why You Should Avoid Products That Include Essential Oils
Some JBCO products are supplemented with essential oils such as lavender and ylang ylang and these have additional benefits for areas like the skin and head hair or beards. They are not suitable, however, for use in delicate areas such as the eyebrows and eyelashes.
Where to Find Extra Pure, Extra Strength Jamaican Black Castor Oil
When choosing any JBCO product it’s important to look at the quality and look at the reviews. Some have just a few drops of JBCO in them and are not that effective. Look for organic, naturally produced brands – our JBCO is manufactured by us so we have complete control over what goes into it and make it to be extra pure and extra strength.
