Blackcurrant Seed Oil
Cold-pressed from the tiny seeds of ripe blackcurrants, the heart of our brand’s berry philosophy, blackcurrant seed oil is a deeply nourishing gift from nature. Rich in essential fatty acids, including an impressive 15–17% gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), nearly twice that of evening primrose oil, along with alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3), it delivers the perfect balance of hydration, elasticity, and radiance.
Follicular Benefits
In the Follicular phase, when rising oestrogen naturally plumps and brightens skin, this luxurious oil enhances that beautiful bloom. Its potent antioxidants (including tocopherols and phenolic compounds) protect against daily stress, while GLA and other fatty acids strengthen the skin’s barrier, lock in moisture, and promote suppleness without feeling heavy and absorbing quickly for a lit-from-within glow.
