Description
Our Rosehip oil has a beautiful orange colour. It is a viscous, slightly dry oil.
Rosehip Seed CO₂ (Rosa canina) is an oil renowned for its many benefits for the skin due to the presence of Vitamins A and E and all three essential fatty acids: Alpha-Linolenic Acid (Omega-3), Linoleic Acid (Omega-6), and Oleic Acid (Omega-9). The depth of colour in this oil indicates the presence of beneficial carotenoids. All of these constituents have proven beneficial for broken or damaged skin. It is known as being effective for facial scarring, including acne scarring, wrinkles, UV damage, premature skin aging, and dermatitis. Rosehip is considered to be a dry oil, which means that it absorbs quickly into the skin and does not leave a greasy residue. It is a wonderful choice as a carrier oil in any aromatherapy application, but particularly in those cases of trying to restore skin health.
How Rosehip CO₂ is Different from Cold-Pressed Rosehip Oil
Rosehip CO₂ Extract is produced using supercritical carbon dioxide extraction, which extracts a broader spectrum of lipophilic compounds, including antioxidants like carotenoids and tocopherols. It offers greater purity with no solvent residues, is often more concentrated, and has a longer shelf life due to added rosemary antioxidant.
Cold-Pressed Rosehip Oil is mechanically expressed and may have a slightly more oxidisable profile. It is often used in a more "raw" state with some water-soluble components.
Both are excellent for skin, but the CO₂ extract has a finer texture, is more stable, and delivers slightly higher antioxidant activity per gram.
