Why Use Rosehip Seed Oil for Better Skin and Hair

· Leave a Comment

ROSEHIP INGREDIENT GUIDE: Rosehip Seed Oil is an ingredient we may take for granted, but rosehip oil gets things done. Organic rosehip oil is a beauty superhero.

We’ve recently featured it in shampoos, skin, and body treatments. Let’s examine the research on this beauty powerhouse and its’ skin and hair benefits.

Plus, find some of our favorite products that use Rose hip Seed Oil.

What is Rosehip Seed Oil?

Rose hip Seed Oil is also known as Rosa Canina Seed Oil.  It comes from the fruit and seeds of the rosa canina rose bush. The fruit and seeds are packed with nutrients.

Rosehip Seed Oil is both a treating and a hydrating ingredient. It offers the benefits of Vitamin C and Retinol serums (Vitamin A). It refines texture and lightens dark spots but without the skin irritation associated with the aforementioned actives.

When unrefined, Rose hip Oil retains more of the benefits. It also carries a heavy scent. Refined Rosehip oil has far less scent but fewer benefits. Cold-pressed Rosehip oil retains maximum benefits.

Rosehip Research RoundUp: What Rosehip Oil Does

Rich in nutrients and vitamins, Rose hip Seed Oil addresses multiple skin concerns at once.

Wild Rose hip Oil is high in Vitamins A, C, and E. They provide nutrients, fade acne scars and promote cell turnover.

Reduce Wrinkles, Keep Skin Hydrated

Rose Hip oil retains moisture in the skin cells. Vitamins E and C work synergistically to keep skin hydrated during rejuvenation. This hydration reduces wrinkles and improves skin elasticity. [1]

Skin That Glows, Dry Skin Relief

Rose hip oil has omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 makes skin glow, as well as soothe and moisturize eczema or dry skin. [2] It is also useful to soothe the skin from any irritation. I find it works well on acne scars and rougher skin areas.

Cold Pressed Rose hip Oil retains linoleic acid. Linoleic acid (Vitamin F) is an omega-6 fatty acid with skin barrier-strengthening, healing, hydrating and anti-inflammatory properties.

It is the predominant fat in skin cells. This forms a lipid barrier that holds moisture in skin cells, which keeps skin at optimal hydration levels.

Rosehip Seed Oil is Collagen Enhancing

Rosehip oil is collagen enhancing and preserving. It contains Vitamins A and C for collagen production.

Rosehips have one hundred times more C than an orange. Studies show topical Vitamin C application creates meaningful anti-aging change within Rosehips contain vitamin C60 days. Improvements were seen in all ages groups and were notable for improvement to the thickness of the epidermis and dermis. [3] Rose Hip oil delivers potent Vitamin C without the irritation found in many topical Cs.

Rosehip oil also inhibits MMP-1, an enzyme that breaks down collagen within the body. [4]

Antioxidant

Rose Hip Oil contains powerful antioxidants to remove toxins and improve skin texture. Visible results can be seen especially quickly on sun-damaged skin.

Redness, Rosacea & Skin Tone

Rose Hip oil has retinoic acid. This clears red marks, uneven skin tone and even helps rosacea.

If you can’t tolerate retinol, rose hip oil is an option.

Hair & Scalp Health

Healthy scalps grow healthy hair, Rosehip oil balances oil production for clearer scalp skin. Vitamin E keeps brittle hair hydrated. Rose hip oil combined with a carrier oil makes for a wonderful scalp massage.
