Description

Edens Garden Evening Primrose oil is as balancing as it is versatile. The oil is extracted from the seeds of the Evening Primrose plant (Oenothera biennis), and is a nutrient-rich carrier oil with a wide range of benefits for the body, skin, and hair. Rich in essential fatty acids, particularly gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), as well as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, Evening Primrose oil offers numerous therapeutic properties.

This harmonious carrier oil brings balance and grounding when your body needs a gentle push back toward homeostasis. It's particularly beneficial for women and a great addition to mature skin preparations. Its soothing and rejuvenating properties can make the skin and hair glow, Gentle enough for sensitive skin, the GLA found in the oil is deeply moisturizing and anti-inflammatory for dry skin conditions and assists wound healing.

To explore using this oil topically, it can be used as a face and neck moisturizer by applying a small amount undiluted. As a massage oil, it has the potential to inhibit acne and reduce inflammation and redness. For use in hair, application onto the scalp and into the hair can be accomplished by massaging a small amount of the oil onto the scalp and brushing through the hair with the fingertips. After bathing and showering it can be used as a hydrating body oil to lock in moisture and soothe dry skin.

Carrier oils are 4 oz and come with a pump.

Amazing

Yeah it’s not the best smelling oil but it works wonders. It’s tmi but I was getting cramp like in my breast my gyno recommended this oil. I added it to my lotion and ever since I’ve been using it all haven’t been having this problem. And it leaves my skin super soft.

Great moisturizer!

I love using EG Evening Primrose as a facial moisturizer blended with rose water spray to cut the oiliness. It gives my skin such a healthy glow and also helps minimize fine lines. I can’t imagine ever using anything else on my skin again!

Evening Primrose Oil

I bought this oil some time ago, but never really got to know it. Recently, I started using my carrier oils as moisturizers for face and body, just so that I could become more familiar with the individual characteristics of each oil - color, scent, greasiness, how it works as a moisturizer, etc. The first thing that caught my attention was the scent of this oil - like raw meat going bad. Every day that I used it, I was closer to saying that I would not be using this again. However, after reading these reviews of how wonderful this oil is for the skin issues (dermatitis, eczema) that I have, I will definitely continue using this oil. Thank you everyone, for the encouragement!

Super soft

I've been wanting to try this one for awhile now and finally did. It does not disappoint. It absorbs easily without any greasiness and immediately left my skin feeling soft and smooth. Love it!
