How should I apply castor oil to my brows and lashes without getting it in my eyes? — CASTOR OIL 50 ML - MIRROLLA (castor oil)

Because the oil is very thick and syrupy, a little goes a long way. Use a clean spoolie brush or a cotton swab, and dip only the tip into the oil. Gently brush along the lash line, from the middle to the tips, and for brows, brush in the direction of hair growth. Avoid the waterline and the inner corner of the eye, as the oil can cause temporary blurring vision if it reaches the eye.

For an overnight conditioning step, apply a thin layer before bed and leave it on. In the morning, wash it off with a gentle cleanser. If you have sensitive skin or are prone to irritation, do a patch test on your inner forearm 24 hours before using it near the eye. Stop use if any redness, stinging, or discomfort appears. The product is for external use only, so do not ingest it. If the oil accidentally gets into your eye, rinse with lukewarm water.

Because the oil is heavy, you may prefer to apply it only to the tips of the lashes rather than the entire length to reduce the chance of it migrating into the eye. You can also mix a single drop with your regular eye cream to lighten the texture, though the oil works well on its own.
