Evening Primrose Oil Refined

EVENING PRIMROSE OIL REFINED

You may well be familiar with Evening Primrose Oil's beautifully light and subtle nutty essence - yet there is much more to this oil when it comes to personal care.

Sourced from the seeds of the evening primrose plant, this oil is cold-pressed to preserve its naturally rich composition, including high levels of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and essential fatty acids known for their skin-nourishing and calming properties. A treasured addition to skincare routines, Evening Primrose Oil helps maintain skin hydration, reduce redness, and calm inflamed skin while promoting a smooth, radiant complexion. It’s also a highly versatile companion for essential oils, working as a carrier to dilute your favourites and enhance their application.

Incorporate this gentle, replenishing oil into your daily skincare, and use it on its own or for diluting essential oils - either way, the benefits for skin in Evening Primrose Oil are exponential.

• Rich in the rare omega 6, gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), Evening Primrose Oil hydrates and nourishes the skin while helping to maintain moisture and elasticity.
• Also high in linoleic acid content – a natural anti-inflammatory - Evening Primrose Oil soothes irritation and calms sensitive skin; as such, it is well known for helping alleviate the symptoms of eczema and psoriasis, like itchiness, redness, pain and dryness.
• Applied to the face, Evening Primrose Oil is said to be one of the best for anti-ageing, with a high content of vitamins and other nutrients helping maintain normal skin function while reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
• Vitamin E is a well-known antioxidant that helps neutralise free radicals, protecting the skin and body from oxidative stress.
• The GLA in Evening Primrose helps regulate sebum production, balancing oil levels naturally and making it beneficial for dry and oily skin types.
• Evening Primrose enhances essential oil application by acting as a lightweight carrier oil, allowing the skin to absorb active ingredients effectively without clogging pores.
• Thanks to its high levels of fatty acids, Evening Primrose Oil is great for hair care, promoting scalp health, strengthening strands, reducing hair loss and adding shine.
