With celebrities like Victoria’s Secret Angel Miranda Kerr and Victoria Beckham touting the use of Rose Hip Oil as part of their secret beauty regimen, it’s no wonder everybody’s talking about it.

What is Rose Hip Oil?

Rose Hip Seed Oil is cold pressed oil, extracted from the seeds of the amber berry-like fruit of the Rose bush (Rosa Canina) which grows wild in the southern Andes in Chile. Its healing properties have been a well-kept secret of the native people of Chile for centuries.

A Note on Vitamin C and Acne Treatment

Rose Hips are one of the richest plant sources of Vitamin C. It is, however, absent in Rose Hip Oil, since Vitamin C only dissolves in water, not in oil.

While Rose Hip Oil is can be used to remove blemishes from acne, some suggest that using it as a treatment of acne itself should be avoided. As usual, results may vary from person to person.

Benefits

Most of the purported benefits of Rose Hip Oil seem to derive from to be a form of Vitamin A that’s readily absorbed by the skin, as well as other various antioxidants and essential fatty acids. Also, research suggests the consumption of rose hip powder might be more effective than Astaxanthin for cell longevity, skin wrinkles, moisture, and elasticity. Similar benefits may result from use of the oil.

Here are some of the possible benefits of using Rose Hip Oil

Moisturizing: hydrates for supple and clear skin
Anti-aging: diminished appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, crows feet, etc
Reduce appearance of Scars, stretch marks
Treatment for burns and sun damaged skin
Hair care: strengthens and treats damaged brittle hair
Nail care: strengthens nails and treats skin and cuticles

Perhaps one of the most important thing is that Rose Hip Oil is that it’s easily absorbed by the skin, making it a light, non-greasy alternative to some of the heavier oils out there.
