Rosehip seed oil is considered a “dry” oil, meaning that it soaks into the skin easily and does not leave a greasy residue. It is a wonderful hydrator, and penetrates dry or damaged skin immediately. This 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, even on sensitive skin. Rosehip seed oil is a safe, inexpensive, effective and non-invasive product for preventing and healing damaged skin.
Rosehip seed oil may also be blended with other carrier oils like Hazelnut, Hemp or Avocado oil and still have wonderful effects at 10% of the total concentration. Further, Rosehip seed oil is an excellent carrier oil for aromatherapy; Blue Mountain Sage, Cape Chamomile, Cape Snowbush and Lavender oils are examples of essential oils that recommended as highly effective additions, having excellent regenerative and soothing properties of their own. Add essential oils to Rosehip seed at concentrations anywhere between 1% and 5%. Pure Rosehip seed oil should always be kept in a cool place, out of direct light, and should be used within 12-18 months of purchase.
So, whether using Rosehip seed oil for healing your skin, or simply giving it a little nourishment, you will almost certainly be happy with the results. This luscious oil, with its broad range of positive effects, is sure to take a prominent place in your natural health botanical collection.
Caution: Recommended for external use only. Rosehip seed oil is not recommended for use on acne, or on very oily skin.
