Black Currant Oil

Black currant, also known as cassis, is a small shrub belonging to the genus Ribes of the Grossulariaceae family. Wild black currant varieties are primarily distributed across Europe and Asia and are celebrated as the “King of berries.” Black currant contains various vitamins, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, calcium, anthocyanins, organic acids, γ-linolenic acids, and unique aroma compounds, exhibiting high nutritional and medicinal value. γ-linolenic acid is a polyunsaturated fatty acid that cannot be synthesized by the human body and must be obtained from a few select plant sources. γ-linolenic acid helps soothe female discomfort and can help improve skin moisture retention.
