What does borage oil do for skin?

2023-06-26

Borage oil comes from the seeds of the plant Borago officinalis. This plant is also called the starflower plant because of its beautiful and distinctive blue star-shaped flowers. Borage is an annual herbal plant that grows wild and is also cultivated for medicinal and culinary uses.

Borage oil is highly valued because it is uniquely rich in gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid. GLA is important for maintenance of skin health and barrier function. GLA is an essential fatty acid for skin because skin can not synthesize GLA and it must be provided through diet or application. Topical application of GLA has been shown to improve skin problems such as eczema, seborrheic dermatitis and other inflammatory skin problems associated with weakened skin barrier. Borage oil topical application improves the barrier weaknesses inherent in these skin problems, meaning the skin is less sensitive and trans epidermal water loss (TEWL) is reduced.
