Anti-Aging Skin Elixir: Borage oil restores the suppleness, elasticity and tone of tired, dry, or scarred skin. This is why it is an important ingredient in many cosmetic brands. Its salicylic acid content is behind its anti-acne and anti-septic qualities. To use it as an excellent anti-aging moisturizer, apply after washing your face every evening. To stop acne breakouts, apply a few drops of borage oil on your face using a cotton pad daily, before bedtime. Manicure Adjuvant: GLA present in borage oil moisturizes and strengthens the nails, while the salicylic acid kills any possible infection. Rub borage oil onto your nails during a manicure or after washing your hands. Hair Revitalizer: Spilt ends and dull hair that knots quickly and falls out easily may come to life after applying a revitalizing borage oil mask. Borage oils regenerative properties can revive the scalp cells and hair strands, just like skin. Aids Weight Loss: Borage oils high GLA content, essential for metabolism, can kill the appetite and aid in weight loss. A 2007 study, which gave one group 5g borage oil and the other 5g olive oil as supplements, found that the one that consumed borage oil lost more weight than the other. To use borage oil for weight loss, take 1-2 GLA borage oil supplements with meals, or as directed by your physician. You can also use borage leaves for cooking. They can be steamed, sautéed or boiled just like spinach. Soothes Arthritis Inflammation: GLA suppresses the molecules that cause joint inflammation. For arthritis, take 1 to 2 GLA borage oil supplements with meals. However, do not take more than 3,000mg of GLA per day as it may increase inflammation.
