Its high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as alpha-linolenic acid, helps deeply hydrate the skin and strengthen the skin barrier.

Thanks to its richness in vitamin E, camelina oil protects the skin from free radicals and helps prevent premature aging.
3) Soothing and Anti-inflammatory
It reduces irritation and redness, soothes sensitive skin, and helps calm inflammation.
