The greatest controversies surround mink fat oil. The producer ensures that the substance is obtained from live animals which means unequivocally that no creatures are killed for the cosmetic production purposes. The truth is, mink oil is listed as one of the last ingredients so its concentration in Hollywood Castor Oil is scarce. In general, mink oil has moisturizing, softening and smoothing features.
Formula:
CONSISTENCY – Hollywood Castor Oil, unlikely to other oily preparations, has very dense consistency which makes it difficult to distribute the product evenly. Its texture can be compared to Vaseline. Only after warming it up, it becomes possible to apply the product. Although Hollywood Castor Oil is absorbed fast, it may cause great damages if applied inappropriately.
FRAGRANCE – Castor Oil by Hollywood Beauty has very delicate, fresh and creamy scent that makes the application pleasant.
EFFICIENCY – Due to the manner of application, this American complex of oils known as Castor Oil is a very efficient product. As mentioned above, the oil has to be put on scalp only. Small amount of the cosmetic is enough to provide hair roots with necessary ingredients.
