Does washing your face with castor and olive oil work?

Castor and olive oil are ideal for naturally moisturizing the skin. Castor oil is often used because it helps balance out oily and dry skin. Olive oil works well for individuals with allergies or skin sensitivities.

While a mixture of castor and olive oil makes an excellent natural moisturizer, it may not be the best face wash. Oils can clog pores or irritate acne in certain individuals, even if they have antibacterial or anti-inflammatory properties. Individuals who want a gentler facial cleanser should use a non-soap cleanser with a neutral pH. Another option is to use facial cleansers specifically designed for acne-prone or sensitive skin.
