Essentially Natural Borage Seed Oil has a higher concentration of GLA than in any other natural plant source, making it the perfect oil for use on prematurely aged skin. Among the oil's many potential uses is its ability to calm and reduce inflammation associated with many common skin disorders, such as acne, eczema, psoriasis and rosacea. It can also alleviate the pain and joint stiffness associated with rheumatoid arthritis.

Borage Seed Oil

I ordered the Borage Seed Oil to use in a facial serum recipe that I tried. I am extremely impressed with the oil. I have developed a bit of a break out on my jaw line, which I am positive is because of wearing a mask. The break out was a bit red and inflamed. I used the face serum which contains the Borage Seed oil and found that the next day the redness and inflamation had almost gone.
I love the fact that I am able to find the oils for my DIY face care at Essential Natural.

Good oil.

I use this oil with hemp seed oil and others for an eczema salve and it works well. Worth trying out!
