What’s in Your Bottle

Your skin absorbs what you put on it—it’s why you care about the quality of the products you use. And we’re right there with you.

That’s why we’re committed to sharing exactly what’s inside your Castor Oil, so you feel confident in every drop. No filters. No secrets. Just honest information to help you make informed choices.

This page is for you—to show what goes into your bottle of Queen of the Thrones® Castor Oil, and why it meets the highest possible standards

for purity and quality.

What You Can Expect from Our Castor Oil

We only use 100% pure, cold-pressed, hexane-free, USDA certified organic Castor Oil, with no fillers, preservatives, or fragrance.


Our sourcing and packaging standards are designed to help protect the oil’s integrity from the moment it’s bottled to the moment it touches your skin. You can count on:

Cold-pressed extraction
(no heat, no chemicals)

Bottling in amber glass to
reduce light exposure

Third-party and functional testing to
check for contaminants and
quality markers

Because if it’s not something we’d use on ourselves, it doesn’t go into your bottle.

What We Test For

Here’s what makes our Castor Oil stand out as best in class:

For centuries, oils were woven into beauty rituals and acts of intention. Castor oil was the crown jewel,
and the pack was its ritual. But the old way was messy, complicated, and easy to quit. So Marisol
engineered the modern castor oil pack: mess-free, time-respectful, and designed to the standards
licensed clinicians use. Then she kept building, turning ancient oil rituals into a new generation of ritual
beauty and wellness.

Ricinoleic Acid Percentage

This is the signature fatty acid that gives Castor Oil its unique properties. For cosmetic-grade Castor Oil, a ricinoleic acid content of 80–90% is considered high quality.
In contrast, USP (United States Pharmacopeia) oral-grade Castor Oil must meet stricter standards, typically ranging between 85–92%, to ensure consistency, purity, and suitability for its intended use. A higher ricinoleic acid percentage is often associated with a higher-quality oil, based on current manufacturing and purity benchmarks.

Phthalates Screening

We make sure your oil is free from harmful plasticizers like DEHP, DBP, and others.

Acid, Iodine, Peroxide, and Saponification Values

These are important markers that show oil freshness, quality, and stability.

Residual Solvents

Confirming no hidden hexane or chemical residues remain from extraction or
processing.

Fatty Acid Profile

This ensures your oil perfectly matches pure Castor Oil’s unique fingerprint, with no adulteration or dilution.

Heavy Metals & Contaminants

Tested to remain well within safe, acceptable limits despite natural environmental exposure.

Microbial & Stability Tests

Demonstrating your oil stays clean, shelf-stable, and effective over time without preservatives, thanks to its naturally low water activity.

The Latest Test Results

Here are the most recent lab reports for the Castor Oil batches shipped across the U.S. and Canada. These results are shared so you can see the data for yourself—because you deserve full transparency, not just promises.

Fatty Acid (FAMEs) Profile

✓ Result: Ricinoleic acid measured at ~84.8% (target 85–92%), with balanced supporting fatty acids — slightly below USP spec but consistent with high-quality performance.

A Note About USP Standards vs. Topical Use Standards

You might have heard about USP (United States Pharmacopeia) standards, which are created for Castor Oil used in pharmaceuticals or food products. These standards require a ricinoleic acid content of 85.0%–92.0% (see USP reference).

But here’s what’s important: topical-use Castor Oil has different quality considerations. Oils intended for cosmetic and self-care use often show slightly more natural variability in ricinoleic acid content. A range in the mid 80s to 90% is still consistent with high-quality topical Castor Oil, especially when supported by clean sourcing, organic certification, and gentle extraction methods like hexane-free cold pressing.

Queen of the Thrones® Castor Oil, with a tested ricinoleic acid level of ~84.8%, fits beautifully within these expectations—making it an ideal choice for your self-care and cosmetic rituals.
