What is Evening Primrose Oil?
Evening Primrose Oil is extracted from the seeds of Evening Primrose Flowers. It is highly concentrated with fatty acids and has wonderful anti-inflammatory properties which can help improve skin conditions.
What are the Evening Primrose Oil benefits?
Ideal for anyone struggling with sensitive skin conditions or acne-probe skin. Evening Primrose Oil can be taken orally or applied topically. With it’s high antioxidant levels and moisturising ability, it’s no wonder why you can find Evening Primrose Oil in many of your favourite natural skincare products. The essential Omega 3 fatty acids may help skin problems such as dry skin, acne and mild forms of eczema. Its anti-inflammatory properties work to reduce skin’s redness and encourages skin elasticity.
Natural skincare products with Evening Primrose Oil
We love the Weleda Evening Primrose range. Within the range are a variety of products from face cleansers to body oils. Three of my favourite products from the range are the Weleda Evening Primrose Age Revitalising Night Cream and the Weleda Evening Primrose Revitalising Body Wash.
When I look for a night cream, I want one that helps plump and hydrate my skin while I sleep. This Evening Primrose Age Revitalising Night Cream uses the benefits of Evening Primrose Oil to support skin’s natural structure, restore moisture balance and promote soft, silky looking skin. This product is also full of skin boosting Vitamin E and antioxidants.
As a busy, working mum there’s nothing more relaxing than hopping into the shower and reaching for a luxurious body wash. Weleda’s Evening Primrose Revitalising Body Wash gently cleanses and refreshes your skin. Packed full of Evening Primrose Oil and fermented coconut you can rest assured that once you step out of the shower, your skin will be feeling nice and clean, without feeling stripped.
Did you know you can also find Evening Primrose Oil in hair care products ? We also love the Yarok Leave-in Conditioner because it’s a great multi-tasker (like me)! This leave-in conditioner acts also as a heat protector using essential oils to help seal split ends, tame frizz and prevent heat damage. Just spray onto damp hair before styling and you will be left with beautiful, shiny hair.
