About Evening Primrose Oil:
One of the common names for Evening Primrose is "kings cure all", and this name reflects the wide range of healing powers ascribed to this plant. The oil is extracted from the seeds and is rich in GLA (gamma linoleic acid.) It has been shown to have anti-aging, antioxidant properties and also acts as an anti-inflammatory, helping to reduce redness and discolouration.
