Overview

Cliganic's evening primrose oil is a 100% pure, organic, cold pressed and unrefined oil sold in a 1 fl oz bottle for $9.99. It's marketed for use on both hair and face, and the label is alcohol free with no added tint, keeping the formula as clean as the ingredient list suggests.

The brand backs it up with cruelty free, GMO free, natural, organic and vegan claims, and the listing notes it's suitable for all skin types, with anytime application. Evening primrose oil is naturally rich in fatty acids, which is the main reason it's used in skincare and haircare formulas as a hydrating carrier oil.

With 336 reviews and a 4.7-star average, plus roughly 100 units bought in the past month, this is a well-liked, steadily selling basic oil rather than a niche or slow-moving product.

Pros

  • 100% pure, organic, cold pressed and unrefined formula
  • Alcohol free, GMO free, cruelty free and vegan
  • Affordable at $9.99 for a 1 oz bottle
  • Strong 4.7-star rating across 336 reviews
  • Steady demand with about 100 units bought in the past month

Cons

  • Single ingredient formula with no added actives like vitamin C or niacinamide
  • Small 1 oz bottle size
  • Dual marketing for hair and face may not suit shoppers wanting a dedicated facial oil

Performance notes

Evening primrose oil is naturally rich in fatty acids, including linoleic and gamma-linolenic acid, which are commonly used in skincare to support the skin's moisture barrier. Because this version is cold pressed and unrefined, it retains more of its natural compounds than a refined oil would. As a single ingredient oil, it works best layered under a moisturizer or mixed with other actives rather than used as a stand-alone treatment for specific skin concerns.

What buyers say

A 4.7-star average across 336 reviews is a strong result for a basic carrier oil. Consistent monthly purchase volume, around 100 units, suggests ongoing repeat demand rather than a short-lived spike in sales.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use this oil on both my hair and my face?

Yes, the product is specifically marketed for both hair and face use. Its cold pressed, unrefined formula and simple ingredient list make it flexible enough to work as a facial oil, a hair treatment, or both.

Is this oil organic and cold pressed?

Yes, the listing describes it as 100% pure, organic, cold pressed and unrefined. Cold pressing helps preserve more of the oil's natural fatty acid content compared to oils that go through additional refining.

How should I add this oil into my skincare routine?

Since it's a single ingredient oil without added actives, most people apply a few drops after their regular moisturizer to seal in hydration, or mix a drop into a moisturizer directly. As with any new oil, a small patch test is a sensible first step, especially for reactive or sensitive skin.
