Evening Primrose Oil

Evening Primrose (Oenothera biennis) is one of the few native wildflowers in North America. Its use dates back centuries among Indigenous North Americans. Evening primrose oil is extracted from the tiny seeds of the plant and is particularly rich in gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), a type of essential fatty acid.

GLA absorbs easily into the skin and supports healing by improving the skin barrier and reducing inflammation. It is known to help with chronic skin concerns such as uneven texture, dryness, eczema, psoriasis, and inflamed acne.

Consistent use of evening primrose oil can improve skin firmness and elasticity while smoothing and hydrating the skin. I have carefully formulated this oil into my Sacred Frankincense Face Serum.
