Evening primrose oil, or in German Nachtkerzenöl, soothes the skin, makes it more supple, and slows moisture loss. The high content of omega-6 fatty acids as well as vitamins and minerals have a regenerating and healing effect.
The rich oil relieves itching and works against atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. Dry, rough, scaly, and inflamed skin especially benefits from the nourishing properties of the oil.
