Rosehip Oil — Dames that Dish

Rosehip Oil Seeds

A lot of people have been wondering about the beauty benefits of rosehip oil, ever since model Miranda Kerr announced that she uses it regularly. A beauty oil well known in Chile, it seems as if now rosehip oil has landed stateside and people are snapping up this moderately priced skincare oil for all of it’s amazing qualities. Harvested from the seeds of rose bushes, rosehip oil is chock full of vitamins A and C, antioxidants and rich in fatty acids that moisturize the skin at a fraction of the cost of other oils that are currently on the market. If you are allergic to coconut oil - or would like to try something new in your beauty regime - think about adding rosehip oil to your arsenal of lotions and potions - you may be happily surprised!

Some of the benefits of rosehip oil are:

Moisturizing: Full of natural, nourishing fatty acids, this oil can be a great way to moisturize your skin. Most over the counter moisturizers contain fatty acids and water - why not just go with all fatty acids on your skin?

Fading Scars: Full of beauty essentials such as Vitamin A and C , rosehip oil can treat hyper pigmentation, and scarring by hydrating damaged skin tissue. If you have acne scars dermatologists suggest using rosehip oil to help fade and moisturize scared tissue.

Firming Skin: Rosehip oil is renowned in Chile for helping skin to gain back elasticity. Try a few drops morning and night and see if you can see the difference.

Treating Wrinkles: Rosehip oil is packed with anti-inflammatory fatty acids that provides skin with a strong anti-oxidant boost.

Exfoliation: Rosehip oil can work on oily skin as a natural exfoliator when you combine it with baking soda. Best to avoid if you are prone to breakouts - may exacerbate the acne that is already there.

Of all the brands that are out there, I am currently using Trilogy’s Certified Rosehip Oil Retail $29.00. I add a few drops to my nightly skin care regime and wake up feeling that my skin is firmer. I also like the price. Trilogy, a New Zealand skincare company was co-founded by two sisters: Sarah Gibbs and Catherine de Groot, who started the company by selling rosehip oil back in 2002.
