In the morning, it may benefit a person suffering from skin conditions such as acne or eczema. This oil contains GLA, which has anti-inflammatory properties and helps enhance skin health. Which combats morning stiffness and improves mobility.
Meanwhile, using the oil at night may be more appropriate for people suffering from joint discomfort or premenstrual syndrome-related pain. GLA in the oil may have anti-inflammatory properties and alleviate pain as our body repairs and recuperates at night.
