Flaxseed oil is extracted from the plant Linum Usitatissimum, also known as Flax. Flaxseeds are well-known for their high content of omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for health. Similarly, linen is a popular fabric for summer clothing. When it comes to skincare, flaxseed oil is a natural plant oil that is rich in moisturizing and potentially anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids, specifically linolenic acid, which makes up 35-65% of the oil. Additionally, it also contains oleic acid (11-35%) and linoleic acid (11-24%), both of which nourish the skin and help repair its protective barrier.
