Rosehip Oil is an amazing multi-tasking beauty ingredient. It is extracted from the seeds of rosehips and is well known for its potent antioxidants and essential fatty acids. These natural compounds can help to reduce the appearance of scars, stretch marks and dehydrated and ageing skin. In fact, Rosehip Oil has been clinically proven to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles*.

Scientists attribute these incredible properties of Rosehip Oil to the natural content of trans-retinoid acid – a precursor of Vitamin A. Combined with Vitamins C and E, this can help to protect the skin from lifestyle and environmental factors (called free radical damage) which may cause premature ageing. Rosehip Oil is highly stable and retains its antioxidant qualities during the extraction process, unlike many other natural oils. As a non-greasy oil, Rosehip Oil is great for all skin types.

At essano, our Rosehip Oil is cold-pressed and certified organic. We enrich it with another antioxidant powerhouse, Acai Berry Oil. Our customers reach for this little beauty to help to smooth the appearance of fine lines, even out skin tone, and balance oil and calm blemishes.
