Rosehip oil is a lightweight, non-greasy oil extracted from the seeds of wild rose bushes, particularly Rosa moschata, Rosa canina and Rosa rubiginosa. It is rich in essential fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants that make it a potent ingredient for nourishing and rejuvenating the skin. Known for its skin-regenerative properties, rosehip oil has been used for centuries in traditional medicine due to its ability to heal, hydrate, and protect the skin. Rosehip oil is highly hydrating due to its rich content of essential fatty acids, which effectively lock in moisture and enhance the skin's natural barrier as well as supports plays a vital role in aiding the body’s natural processes for injury repair. It is also known to improve the appearance of scars. Another benefit of rosehip oil is its anti-inflammatory properties, attributed to its high levels of polyphenols and vitamin E.
