Ribes Nigrun (Blackcurrant) Seed Oil

Black currant is a hero oil packed with anthocyanins, polyphenols, antioxidants, and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). GLA is a type of omega-6 fatty acid famous for its ability to help ease inflammation. It absorbs quickly and provides great relief for dry, itchy skin.

Black currant’s high antioxidant content can help slow down the effects that come from free radical damage. This is particularly helpful to those experiencing variations in pigment tone or hyperpigmentation.
