Before applying, however, you will have to take certain steps. That way, your eyes will be protected from any aggression that castor oil could cause. 

For a perfect, careful application, use a cotton swab. Instead of a cotton swab, you can use a clean wipe or a mascara tube.

With one or the other of these accessories, take a few drops of castor oil. Then make sure to apply it gently to your lashes. For an easier application, you can use the empty tube of one of your mascaras. The tube must be clean so as not to affect the effectiveness of castor oil on your lashes. 

Note, furthermore, that night is the ideal time to use castor oil. When you apply it in the evening, castor oil has the time to penetrate the lashes properly. During the day, on the other hand, with frequent movement and the need to clean your face from time to time, the oil struggles to penetrate the lashes properly. So favor evenings for applying and using castor oil.

It should be noted that before applying castor oil to the lashes, you must clean your face. The face must indeed be clean and the lashes dry before applying. So take care to shower and to do your evening care before applying. Once the face is clean and the lashes dry, you can apply the castor oil. This optimizes the effectiveness of the oil on the lashes.
