i need to replenish castor oil soon too.
planning to get from site where i buy my mmu supplies cos their small size 2oz usd1.50 is just nice for me and i can sun bian get other thingies.
castor oil is cheap and common, almost all sites sell.
our local pharmacies should have too. (maybe under laxative section hehe)
if u r not in any hurry n wanna sample bit first, i can spare u some when i get my new bottle.
if really work for ur scar, u can then buy large bottle from iherb, saw they have 4oz for usd3.99 to 32oz for usd9.66.
get new customer to help u order to get usd5 off to offset the usd4 direct shipping. can use my code of VIK136 again.
just dun ask 446 or janl cos i've already used them (as i've made use of u lol).
by the way, u still planning to come over rescue ur powder? fyi, i'll be away 23dec to 3jan.

446, ok i only checked for mrh (since i want their calendula hydro n aloe gel n dried basil herb) and itdf (since i want their alcohol free witch hazel hydro) so far.
mrh in oregon, no tax to texas.
shipping to oregon is few usd cheaper than to texas.
itdf in texas, 8+% tax to texas.
shipping to texas cheaper than to oregon.
does ur friend have US cc? if so, best to get her to order.
intl cc will cause about 2 weeks delay in processing.
dun mind some rose g (and maybe peppermint) hydro too.
both sites have. itdf's cheaper eg. rose g 16oz by about usd6, dats after considering itdf's tax.
==================================
comgateway (which i've not used in a long time haha) gave account holders usd15 credit as xmas pressie to be used for payment by 14dec.
so, i am thinking of just ordering mrh myself today.
after offset by the usd15, hopefully only need to fork out bit more than via ur friend.

ku, of cos can. but no know when i am ordering. maybe jan or something. there are some wanted items which are oos right now.
like any botanical oils, castor oil comes in organic and non organic. certified organic (meaning the castor beans where the oil is extracted from are certified organically grown) usually more ex of cos.
then there is the extraction method and level of refining.
mrh's summary about these :
http://www.mountainroseherbs.com/bulkoil/bulkoil.html
tkb's one is not organic but it is cold pressed though.
gow's 0.25oz usd2.75 is organic cold pressed unrefined. their larger sizes eg. 4oz usd3.10 seems like not organic.
for ocm n formulating, usually castor oil is part of an oil mix, with castor at lower %.
i am not familiar with its use for keloid scars.
gow have it as safe to be used at 100% topically so yup u should be able to just apply neat. of cos do patch test first!

446, ok when the time comes, let me order via my itdf account then, to build up order history. apparently, after certain num of successful orders (think is 5 or so), itdf will waive the long processing for intl ccs.
so, we shipping to her new addy right?
must time order carefully. too early and ur friend wont be home to receive package. too late and she would have left for sg already.
meantime, if a suitable offer comes from vpost/cg which will make shipping more or less equal to the tax, we dun even need to ma fan ur friend.
if not for itdf's long processing, its actually more logical n cost saving to use ur friend for mrh (since no tax to texas addy) and cg offer for itdf. oh well.
i am ordering mrh soon. nothing for u hor?
update : mrh ordered.
