Description

Evening primrose oil is a natural oil derived from the seeds of the evening primrose plant (Oenothera biennis), which is native to North America and parts of Europe. The oil is rich in essential fatty acids, particularly gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), which is an omega-6 fatty acid known for its anti-inflammatory and healing properties. Evening primrose oil has been used for centuries in traditional medicine and is widely known for its benefits in skincare, hormonal balance, and overall health.

The oil is commonly used as a supplement and is also found in various skincare products, as it has the ability to hydrate, repair, and soothe the skin. It is often included in formulations targeting dry skin, eczema, acne, and other skin conditions, as well as products designed for managing menopausal symptoms or premenstrual syndrome (PMS).
