Vitamin rich
High in Vitamin C, rosehip oil has a brightening effect, and - let’s be honest - who doesn’t want glowy, dewy skin? Rosehip oil also contains Vitamins A, B1, B2, B3 and K, all of which help the skin to regenerate itself and heal.
Soothing and smoothing
Rosehip oil is particularly good at healing breakouts and other sensitivities, thanks to the high levels of fatty acids it contains which work to enhance the natural skin barrier. Rosehip oil can also help to fade scars or marks, reduce redness, and calm inflammation, so it can help with a whole host of different skin concerns.
Deeply moisturising
Rosehip oil is a light, non-comedogenic oil, meaning it won't clog the pores, so it's perfect for acne-prone skin. It’s also super hydrating, thanks to the linoleic acid it contains, and helps the skin to retain moisture. And, if that wasn't enough to convince you to add rosehip oil into your routine, then you should also know that it's got anti-aging properties such as enhancing skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines.
Basically, there’s nothing rosehip oil can’t do, so what’s not to love, right?
