Organic Rosehip Seed Oil

Our Organic Rosehip Oil, aka Rosehip Oil, Organic, is a refined carrier oil and cold pressed.

Country of Origin: Chile

Botanical Name: Rosa mosquita – refined / cold pressed

Rosehip Oil, aka Rosehip Seed oil, is truly amazing. This Organic Oil is light amber in color and is considered a “dry” oil, meaning that it soaks into the skin easily, and does not leave a greasy residue. This unique oil contains essential fatty acids and is great for dry or mature skin and can be used in most fine skin care recipes.

Because of its delicate nature of our Organic Rosehip oil and the cold pressed method of extraction, it would be a good idea to keep in a cool spot or kept refrigerated. Rose hip oil, organic is a wonderful hydrator, and penetrates dry skin quickly. This Organic oil may be used straight from the bottle as a moisturizer, or can be incorporated into a cream, lotion, facial oil, or massage oil. Because it is so gentle, rosehip seed oil may be used undiluted on the skin.
