A member asked:

I apply castor oil on my eyelashes and it is really good but some of it comes on my lid &under eye area so can it cause early wrinkles to this area ?

5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

No: Wrinkles have many causes, castor oil should have no effect.

OK to do: Should be fine. Castor oil is safe for skin and even if you get a little bit in the eye. Make sure it's pure and fragrance free.
