Evening Primrose is a luxury oil that many rave about; it's extremely nourishing and is one of few carrier oils that is rich in omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids are often reputed for dietary reasons, but these fatty acids can be very beneficial and hydrating for skin and hair--it's great for skin conditions like eczema, skin inflammation, etc. Its moisturizing properties also helps to prevent signs of aging. It's great for dandruff, too. Because the oil is that much more expensive than other carrier oils, it can be added sparingly to fortify less expensive oils (you might want to do this because the oil, when used in large quantities, can leave the skin feeling a bit greasy). The oil is also unrefined, so there is a slight smell to it; the smell is a bit unpleasant (probably because of the Omega oils), but the scent can be enhanced with essential oils like lavender.

Bought this oil for the healing and moisturing skin benefits, . I blend it with 5 other oils plus carrot seed, lavender, and patchouli EOs (all purchased at NDA) to make my moisturizing oil for mature skin. It's amazing what natural oils do for the skin.

There is definately a scent but after mixing it with a blend of EO's it was fine. It feels great going on, absorbs nicely and has wonderful benefits. I will purchase this again for sure.

Evening primrose is added to my massage blends in a 40/60 split with unrefined hemp seed oil. The combination is amazing. I love evening primrose for in fragrance creams as well... just a little of ND natural beeswax, and the essential of your choice, and it's an amazing combination. New Directions is such an awesome resource for the very finest oils. I love shopping here!

I am constantly amazed at the quality and the PRICE of everything at NDA, even the Evening Primrose Oil! I feel like a child and the candy store! Although I have not yet tried this in my CP soap I am confident it will lend its wonderful properties to my products. Kudos to NDA for offering both the Unrefined and Refined versions of this oil at excellent prices! I will definitely be purchasing more of this oil among many others in the future!
