Gold of Pleasure is the name given to the plant Camelina sativa. The oil expressed from its seeds is a rich source of polyunsaturated fatty acids. The omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids it contains enhance the skin's natural barrier, reducing moisture loss and improving elasticity. This makes it the perfect oil to use as a base for an essential oil mix for massage.
