LINSEED OIL

LINSEED OIL

REDUCES ⎪ SOFTENS ⎪ NOURISHES

Linseed oil is a vegetable oil used as a skin care agent.

It has long been used by our ancestors to soothe skin burns and soften mucous membranes and skin. Rich in omega-3s such as alpha-linolenic acid, it has beneficial anti-inflammatory properties.

It’s true that our modern diet is often unbalanced in favour of omega-6s, which are pro-inflammatory. To restore this balance, it is important to provide omega-3s, essential anti-inflammatory fatty acids.

As far as the skin is concerned, the omega-3s present in linseed oil can help nourish the skin and soothe inflammation and irritation. That’s why it’s included in our regenerating oil.

While flaxseed can be considered a phytohormone when ingested, this is not the case when used externally.

ITS BENEFITS:

• Is rich in anti-inflammatory fatty acids such as alpha-linolenic acid
• Helps to soothe and reduce skin irritation
• Maintains the elasticity and firmness of skin tissue
