Rosehip oil is one of the most scientifically validated natural facial oils in skincare. Rich in antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and vitamins, this oil is a powerhouse — helping soothe, repair, and strengthen the skin's natural barrier.

About

INCI Name

Rosa Canina (Rosehip) Seed Oil / Rosa Canina Fruit Oil

Origin

Plant-derived. Cold-pressed from the seeds of the wild rose bush (Rosa canina), native to Chile and parts of Europe and South Africa. Prized for its concentration of vitamins and essential fatty acids.

Key Skin Benefits

  • Anti-ageing — Rosehip seed oil is often used in anti-ageing formulas due to its powerful antioxidants, which help reduce the signs of ageing, improve elasticity, and enhance overall skin texture

  • Brightening & hyperpigmentation — ich in vitamin C and beta-carotene, rosehip oil helps support collagen production and fade dark spots and uneven skin tone with regular use

  • Scar & healing support — The regenerative properties of rosehip oil promote the production of new skin cells, which can make acne scars and minor skin injuries less visible over time

  • Hydration — Rosehip seed oil absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving behind any oily residue, making it ideal for use in both morning and evening skincare routines

How To Use

Skin Type

All skin types — particularly oily, acne-prone, hyperpigmented, and mature skin. Its non-comedogenic profile makes it broadly well tolerated.

Comedogenic Rating

1 out of 5 — very low. Rosehip seed oil has a low comedogenic rating of 1, meaning it is unlikely to clog pores.
