7. Sesame oil for healthy teeth
Sesame oil contains various acids and multivitamins. Rinse your mouth with this oil and your teeth will be whiter, improving the regeneration of your gums, oral cavity, and tongue. Just make sure you get it right.
You will need:
- 1 tbsp sesame oil

6. Hibiscus oil for hair growth
Hibiscus is exactly what fine hair needs. The vitamin C in its oil helps increase collagen in the hair, while the amino acids nourish and strengthen the roots. Ground petals can wake up “sleeping” hair bulbs, causing them to grow back. Therefore, the shafts of your hair become thicker and the hairstyle gains more volume.

- Apply the shampoo to wet hair and massage the head until it reaches the roots and the skin. Let the shampoo work for 2-3 minutes.

If you have light hair, you should first consult your hairdresser, because even hibiscus oil contains coloring pigments.
5. Castor oil for thick eyebrows and lashes
