Kitsch 100% Pure Castor Oil
Kitsch
100% Pure Castor Oil
The oil earns top marks, the undisclosed dropper and spoolie do not. We could not trace the organic claim to Kitsch in the USDA database.
Single-ingredient cold-pressed castor oil. The formula could not be simpler; the packaging disclosure could be much better.

About Kitsch
Kitsch was founded in 2010 by Cassandra Thurswell, who started the female-owned company at 25, self-financed, selling hair ties door to door from her Los Angeles apartment and grew it into a brand carried in tens of thousands of stores worldwide. It makes hair accessories and hair and body care, including shampoo and conditioner bars and the pure castor oil listed here.
The brand is Leaping Bunny certified cruelty-free, confirmed in that registry since 2020, and positions itself as affordable everyday beauty. The honest note is that Kitsch is primarily a plastic hair-accessories brand, so its overall footprint is mixed, and its genuinely low-plastic line is the solid shampoo and conditioner bars rather than the accessories.
