Borage organic oil is cold pressed from the seeds of the Borage plant. The seeds have a high content of fatty acids such as linoleic, palmetic and gamma linolenic acids, along with vitamins A, B, D and E.
This makes the oil highly nourishing and hydrating. Also possessing anti-inflammatory properties, it is used to sooth dry skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis and is thought to make a soothing massage oil in cases of rheumatoid arthritis.
It is also widely used to help improve dry scalp and dandruff conditions.
