Evening Primrose Oil

Evening primrose oil is a natural oil derived from the seeds of the hibiscus flower, known as Oenothera, which blooms at night and is native to North America. It was traditionally used to treat a range of skin problems, including bruising, inflammation and wounds. Evening primrose oil contains 2 essential Omega-6 fatty acids which can only be obtained from our diet and are responsible for brain health, helping to regulate hormone levels, help regulate cholesterol levels and promotes skin health. In skincare, it has the ability to nourish and hydrate, being rich in essential fatty acids, including gamma-linolenic acid, which is required for maintaining skin health and strengthen the skin barrier. It is particularly suitable for those with sensitive skin type. When selecting a product, ensure it contains high quality and pure evening primrose oil.
