What
is Rosehip Oil?
Rose
hip oil is extracted from the seeds of a rose bush (Rosa moschata or Rosa rubiginosa) which grows
wild in the southern Andes. It is unique among vegetable oils in containing
retinol (vitamin A), and is also high in vitamin C. Rosehip oil is high in the
essential fatty acids - linoleic acid or omega-6, and linolenic acid or
omega-3.
How
To Use Rosehip Oil
·
Apply generously onto the skin and
hair. Rosehip seed oil is considered“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. Because it is so gentle,
rosehip seed oil may be used undiluted on the skin, even on sensitive skin.
·
Use 3-4 pumps in a bath with bath
salts. Bath salts break up the oil in the water.
·
Unsuitable for compresses or
sprays.
·
Unsuitable for vaporisers.
·
Do not ingest.

Why
Our Oils Are Offered Only In Small Volume Sizes
15ml
- You only need very small quantities of our oils for it to be effective. This
size should last you 2 months.
Other
oils may appear to be cheaper, but you need to use more of it and they are
riddled with chemicals and pesticides - completely unsafe for topical
application. In the natural skin care industry, you really do get what you pay
for.
Main
Active Ingredients in Rosehip Oil
Palmitric
acid (>6%), stearic acid (0.5-3.0%), oleic acid (10-30%), linoleic acid
(40-60%), linolenic acid (30-50%) and others.
What
Do They Do?
The
body cannot make any of the unsaturated essential fatty acids (UEFA) listed
above. Yet they are vital to healthy skin.
High
in anti-oxidants is anti-inflammatory and helps to decrease/repair skin
damage.
What
Does That Mean For Your Skin?
It
is dry oil which means it absorbs very quickly into skin. After a minute of
application, it will completely be absorbed leaving no oily residue.
Rosehip
is more repairing than nourishing.
It
is comedogenic. This means that it may block pores. So, while it is highly effective
in erasing acne scars, it may cause acne breakouts.
So,
we only recommend using it on the body and hair.
How
Is It Currently Being Used In The Skin Care Industry?
Skin
care products, toiletries, soaps.
How
To Use On Your Face
We
don’t recommend using rosehip on your face because it has been known to cause
acne. However, you may use it as spot treatment on your face, for scars, if you
are not acne prone.
How
To Use On Your Body
Rosehip
is repairing oil. Rub generously onto your entire body. It will repair and
erase any unwanted scars, stretchmarks, pigmentation, age spots, sun spots
and uneven skin over time. You may still need to apply a moisturiser after
using rosehip if your skin is dry.
How
To Use On Hair
Direct
application :
i)
Use as a hair mask or leave-in conditioner. 3-4 pumps for a hair mask and
rinse. Or just 1 pump as a leave-in conditioner.
ii)
Rub 0.5 pumps in the palm of your hands and gentle fluff through your hair.
Then pat down the ends. It will tame fly-away hairs and add a natural sheen.
(Just be warned that rosehip has a mild bittery odour when used on hair).
To
Condition :
We
don’t recommend using rosehip in shampoo as rosehip does its best work on
the hair itself. Not recommended for people with flat oily hair.
Other
Uses Of Rosehip Oil
Joint
massage - Rosehip has been clinically shown to reduce inflammation. If your
knees don’t bend as they should, consider rubbing a little on it everyday. It
has been clinically proven (research from University of Copenhagen) to reduce
swelling in knee joints, lower back, hips, hands and feet.
Hot
bath - Add 4 pumps to a bath. You will have a natural glow to your skin.
Eczema
- It is not known why eczema occurs. However, rosehip can treat the symptoms.
Gently rub onto infected areas. Even if your skin has cracked and is weeping,
rosehip can still be applied. It contains no chemicals or steriods. It is safe
to use on children (over 6) with eczema.
There
is simply no substitute for using rosehip in reducing the appearance of scars,
stretch marks and pigentation. But, did you know it also reduces arthritic
swelling!
Remember!
Our
rosehip oil is premium stuff. You only need just a little.
Always
perform a patch test on your skin before using any new products.
Science
behind Rosehip’s Efficacy
In
1988 two researchers published a paper entitled, ‘Contributions to identification and application of active
ingredients in Rosa Aff Ribiginosa’. The
authors were, Dr. Bertha Pareja Principal Professor, Faculty of Pharmacology
and Biochemistry, University of San Marcos, Lima, Peru and Dr Horst KehI, from
the School of Pharmacology of the University of Missouri, Kansas City,
Missouri, USA.
In
this two-year study, rosehip oil was applied to 180 patients with surgical,
traumatic and burn scars, as well as to a group suffering from premature aging
of the skin. The results were remarkable. Continuous application of rosehip oil
effectively attenuated scars and wrinkles, halted advancement of premature
aging, and restored lost skin natural colour and tone.
The
action of rosehip oil in helping to regenerate damaged skin tissues was
originally attributed to its high content of unsaturated essential fatty acids.
These acids are important for healthy skin (when taken internally) for they are
components of cell membranes and precursors of prostaglandine/leucotriens.
Their presence did not successfully explain the regenerative effects of rosehip
oil. Drs. Pareja and Kehl, identified trans-retinoic acid as the component
responsible for these effects.
Trans-retinoic
acid is a derivative of Vitamin A and is marketed as Tretinoin. The therapeutic
effects of Tretinoin in the treatment of a variety of dermatology disorders
have been well-researched and recognized for almost 30 years. Tretinoin can
produce quick and positive changes in the skin, but because it is a very strong
substance, it must be applied under medical supervision.

on your skin. Once you discover just
how effective they are, you'll never use synthetic creams again.

* Each batch of the oils we get will be different from the next,
so the percentage mix of each compound will be different. The reason being is
that this is a completely natural product, with no added ingredients, synthetic
or otherwise. The chemical makeup of the tree will vary according to soil,
rainfall and other weather related conditions. Whatever is distilled from the
plant, flower or nut is, refined if necessary, then bottled. Indicated above is
the average range in which the active ingredients of our essential oil fall
into.)
