Description
Evening primrose oil is extracted from the seeds of the evening primrose plant. It is characterized by its rich ingredients, especially the high content of Omega-6 fatty acids and gamma-linolenic acid. This makes it an excellent active oil for skin care, especially for dry, scaly, and rough skin conditions.
Areas of Application and Recommendations
- Facial and Eye Care: Due to its moisturizing and skin-soothing properties, evening primrose oil is ideal for facial and eye care, especially for dry and mature skin.
- Baby Care: Its gentle properties make it an excellent choice for baby care, both as an addition to the baby bath and for general skin care.
- After-Sun and Balms: Evening primrose oil is particularly effective in after-sun products and balms, where it can unfold its soothing and restructuring properties.
Additional Uses
- Soap Making: As a superfatting oil in handmade soaps, evening primrose oil contributes to skin care but should be used sparingly due to its precious properties.
- Combination with Other Plant Oils: For a more intensive care effect, evening primrose oil can be combined with other moisturizing and active plant oils, such as apricot kernel oil or grape seed oil.
Storage: Since evening primrose oil is not heat-stable, it should be incorporated in the active phase of cosmetic formulations and stored in a cool and dry place.
Suitable for all skin types, especially for dry, sensitive, and needy skin.
Can be used in concentrations up to 100%, but due to its preciousness, sparing use is recommended.
