Bianca Rosa Evening Primrose Oil - 100% Pure, Cold Pressed, (3.40 fl oz, 1-Pack, Zin: 428133)

Evening Primrose Oil - 100% Pure, Cold Pressed Evening Primrose Oil (Oenothera biennis L.) Evening primrose oil has an exceptionally fine texture and a faint musty odour. It is captured from the minute seeds of the bright yellow flowers which bloom only at night. The oil is especially vulnerable to heat, so most producers extract the substance by employing the petroleum-derived solvent, hexane. The resulting oil is golden yellow, and almost identical in chemical composition to that which is found within the seed. It is possible to obtain warm-pressed evening primrose oil (labelled 'cold-pressed'). Unfortunately, the warm-pressed oil must undergo a process of refining in order to remove the dust-like seed husks which saturate the product. Having been subjected to a certain amount of heat - albeit naturally generated - and the refining process itself, the end product is a pale shade of yellow and contains fewer nutrients. In this instance, it is difficult not to concede that solvent extracted evening primrose oil is superior to that which is labelled 'cold-pressed'. Evening primrose oil contains vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids, including the important gamma linolenic acid. The oil is used mainly as a nutritional supplement to help support complaints such as skin irritations, heart health issues, joint pain, PMS (pre-menstrual syndrome) and benign breast concern. When applied externally, the oil is a superb moisturiser, hence its Bianca Rosa® natural carrier oils provide the perfect medium in which to dilute potent essential oils and "carry" them onto the skin and into the body. These deep-nourishing oils provide even distribution and absorption with light and non-sticky lubrication. Depending on the potency of the essential oil being diluted, generally, adding 1-3 drops of essential oil to every 5 mL (1 tsp.) of carrier oil is sufficient for most massage or skin care needs. Massage gently into the skin with a circular motion. Apply as needed or as directed.
