FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Premium Quality: Extracted through the seeds of Rosa canina, Rosehip Oil Extra Virgin retains its unrefined integrity and nutrient profile. This extraction method ensures minimal processing, preserving the natural composition of essential fatty acids and antioxidants.
Lightweight and Fast-Absorbing: Classified as a “dry oil”, this Extra Virgin Rosehip Carrier Oil absorbs quickly into the skin without a greasy after feeling. Its quick absorption and non-comedogenic profile deliver hydration without heaviness.
Rich in Beautifying Constituents: With a high content of linoleic and linolenic acids, along with naturally occurring Vitamin E, Rosehip Oil Extra Virgin enhances skin-softening formulations and supports moisture retention.
Formulator’s Enhancing Oil: Due to its potency and richness, Rosehip Oil Extra Virgin is commonly used at low concentrations (typically 10%) to boost the performance of skin care, cosmetic, and hair care products without altering overall viscosity or absorption.
DESCRIPTION
Rosehip Oil Extra Virgin is a nutrient-dense oil cold pressed from the seeds of the wild Rosa canina rose bush, primarily grown in Chile, and maintains its original composition and light amber to reddish hue. This extra virgin variety offers enhanced purity and natural bioactive properties, making it especially suited for high-performance cosmetic formulations.
In the modern cosmetic industry, Rosehip Oil is prized for its silky, dry finish and light consistency. Its quick-absorbing nature supports non-greasy formulations, while its natural content of Vitamin E and polyunsaturated fatty acids lends itself to softening, conditioning, and moisture-locking applications.
Used in dilution, Rosehip Oil Extra Virgin adds beautifying properties to skin care and hair care products without overpowering the formulation. Its unique profile and natural scent make it especially appealing to formulators seeking to create clean-label, high-end products with botanical performance.
