Borage Seed Oil

Description

Harness the barrier-rebuilding power of Borage Seed Oil, the richest natural source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), expertly blended into your Build-Your-Own ORY^® skincare, haircare, or handmade soap. Cold-pressed from the seeds of the starflower (Borago officinalis) and refined to be free of pyrrolizidine alkaloids, Borage Seed Oil delivers GLA, an omega-6 fatty acid the skin uses to build barrier lipids and calm inflammation, and clinical reports show benefit for dry, eczema-prone, and flaky skin in infants, children, and adults. In your custom face oil, cream, lotion, or moisturizer, it replenishes lost lipids, reduces roughness and moisture loss, relieves dry-skin itch, and restores suppleness to mature skin — with a light, fast-absorbing, non-greasy feel. In your custom scalp oil, conditioner, or hair mask, it soothes a dry, flaky scalp and softens brittle, chemically stressed hair. Ideal for dry, sensitive, mature, normal, and combination skin, it excels at comforting lipid-depleted and eczema-prone skin, and it pairs beautifully with ceramides, squalane, Hyaluronic Acid, Calendula, and Chamomile. Customize your cruelty-free formulation for a nourishing, restorative experience from face to scalp. Caution: Patch test recommended for sensitive skin or scalp. Not recommended on oily scalps.

Why Choose Borage Seed Oil for Your Build-Your-Own Formulation:

• • Barrier Repair: GLA and linoleic acid are converted into ceramides and barrier lipids, reducing moisture loss, perfect for dry skin in bespoke face oils and creams.
  • Calms Eczema-Prone Skin: Anti-inflammatory GLA metabolites calm reactive, eczema-prone skin, with clinical reports of benefit in children and adults.
  • Itch Relief: Reduces the itch and tightness that come with very dry skin in custom body oils and balms.
  • Mature Skin Suppleness: Restores hydration and elasticity to lipid-depleted, aging skin in personalized night creams and eye creams.
  • Light, Fast-Absorbing: A non-greasy texture that sinks in quickly, making rich barrier care comfortable for combination and normal skin.
  • Scalp and Hair Nourishment: Soothes dry, flaky scalps and softens brittle, color-treated, curly, and coily hair in custom scalp oils and masks.
