There haven't been any true scientific research studies on the effects of primrose oil when ingested or used on the skin, so I'm not sure. The properties it claims may be false because they haven't been proven true. In any case, you're right not to swallow them. Since it's a natural oil I don't foresee that it would do any harm, but it might not do any good either.

Congratulations on the baby on the way! I know vitamin e works well for stretch marks and scars but is that why you want to put it on your face? or is it another reason?

Yes it's fine! I use that on my face all the time and it works great, they're natural oils that have shown no horrible side effects. They're great for hydrating and they both have anti inflammatory properties.
