evening primrose oil

Evening primrose oil ( Oenothera Biennis Seed Oil) - controlled organic cultivation

The medicinal evening primrose oil is extracted from the seeds of the biennial plant by cold pressing. The evening primrose is originally native to North America, but also grows wild here as a "neophyte" (ancient Greek: new plant). The crushed seeds were already used by the Native Americans as an internal and external remedy.

Evening primrose oil is exceptionally rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid and gamma-linolenic acid (essential omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids), which stimulate cell renewal, especially in mature skin and slow down skin aging . Evening primrose oil protects the skin from moisture loss and keeps it elastic. It supports healing in the treatment of flaky, inflamed and rough skin, neurodermatitis skin, eczema, psoriasis, burns and scars.
