Castor oil

I’ve asked around at a lot of pharmacies and shops and have had no luck finding castor oil. Anyone know where I can purchase it?

Thanks in advance!

Where can I find castor oil in Taipei?

Not sure what you want it for, but I’ve ordered it on Shopee before (I don’t know whether it was food grade — I used it for making soap).

Omg…
Blast from the past.
Mom born in 40s, and hated castor oil, as it would be given to her for all kinds of plain ailments by her mom as a child.

Food grade is probably important with this species :innocent: don’t buy discount, don’t buy from Russia haha

Depends what OP wants to use it for I guess, and they didn’t specify. :slightly_smiling_face:

Edit: I think I know what you were getting at here, but there’s still a difference between “not food grade” and “contains ricin”.

Nope! All of my soap is now 100% human fat free! :blush:

5% castor oil though. For a better lather.

Some local sources, also lot’s of choice on iHerb.

I need it for skincare

There are lots of soap making and related stores in taiwan now. You can buy lye, oils, dyes, essential oils etc for soap/shampoo/cosmetics making. Kind of fun.

This is the one I’ve bought before:

Perhaps the skincare/chemical stores on/ around Tienshui Street? If you need some particular grade.

Okay thanks everyone I think I’m going to order from shopee.
