Evening primrose oil

Skin barrier support

Evening primrose oil is a plant-derived oil known for its high content of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid involved in skin barrier metabolism. GLA plays a role in maintaining the structure and function of skin lipids that help protect the skin from environmental stressors (Veterinary Herbal Medicine, 2007).

In dogs with sensitive or reactive skin, maintaining adequate fatty acid intake can contribute to supporting the natural protective function of the skin barrier. Healthy skin lipids help maintain moisture and support normal skin comfort.

Because of its fatty acid composition, evening primrose oil is often included in nutritional strategies aimed at supporting skin condition and coat quality in animals with sensitive skin. Verhelst, 2025
