Organic Borage Seed Oil (Starflower)

Deeply nourishing and exceptionally supportive, Dreaming Earth Botanicals’ Organic Borage Seed Oil is one of the most treasured carrier oils for dry, sensitive, and mature skin. Cold pressed from the seeds of Borago officinalis, this rich botanical oil is renowned for its naturally high concentration of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid that helps support the skin’s moisture barrier and overall resilience.

Also known as Starflower Oil, Borage Seed Oil has been valued for centuries for its skin-conditioning properties and remains a favorite ingredient in facial serums, restorative body oils, and barrier-supportive skincare formulations.
