Why Rose Hip Oil and its Benefits

The organically crafted Rose Hip Seed Oil used in Refeurish Organics products is cold pressed from the seeds (hips) of the Wild Rose (Rosa rubiginosa) shrub most common in the southern Andes in Chile (Rosa Rubiginosa, Rosa Eglanteria and Rosa Mosqueta all refer to the same oil, however, the more commonly available Rosa Canina is a bit different). Pure cold-pressed Rosehip Seed Oil has an earthy and pungent herb-like aroma with a natural orange-to-reddish color and slightly viscous consistency.

For centuries, the Andean Indians of Chile have relied on the nutritive and anti-inflammatory benefits of Rose Hip Seed Oil within their traditional medicinal, skin and hair care regimens. Rose Hip Seed Oil possesses a unique nutrient profile: rich in omega-3, omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids and is a natural choice for moisturizers and hydrating formulations.

The main attribute that makes the Rosehip Oil (from the Rosa Rubiginosa) stand out against the more commercially available Rosa Canina, is the miracle active, trans-retinoic acid, aka Tretinoin (around 0.357 ml/l). It is the main bioactive component of the Rosehip Oil (from the Rosa Rubiginosa) and has all kinds of magic abilities including restoring and regenerating tissues, decreasing wrinkles, helping acne and even normalizing pore size. It’s a natural derivative of Vitamin A that helps the skin to repair and push fresh cells to the epidermis. The supplier we purchase our Rosehip Oil from certifies it organic.
