Rosehip oil is also known as rosehip seed oil or the “Oil of Youth”, is running a close race with coconut oil when it comes to its benefits for the skin. Rosehips were a remedy used by the ancient Egyptians, Mayans and Native Americans all because of their amazing healing properties. It’s derived from the rosa canina rose bush, which is grown mostly in Chile.
Rosehip oil is loaded with skin-nourishing vitamins and essential fatty acids. It also contains phenols that have been shown to have antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. Rosehip oil is often used as a carrier oil for essential oils which are too intense to put on your skin directly.
It is also one of the richest plant sources of vitamin C which is another reason why rosehip oil is such a great choice for the skin and more.
Benefits Of Rosehip Oil:
1. Anti Aging Properties:
Rosehip oil has significant anti-aging benefits for your face. Super light and non-greasy, the anti-aging benefit comes from its high antioxidant content and the oil’s ability to penetrate into deeper layers of the skin where it can improve moisture levels and reduce visible signs of aging.
2. Protection From Age Spots:
The UV rays of the sun can damage the skin, resulting in age spots and hyperpigmentation on the face. The antioxidants found in rosehip oil, especially the combination of vitamin C and vitamin E, can help to combat free radicals that cause sun damage. These antioxidants can actually reduce the overproduction of pigment in skin, which is exactly what leads to uneven tone and age spots in the first place.
The oil of rose hips is also deeply moisturizing and aids in removing redness and irritation. These properties also make rosehip oil a possible treatment for rosacea.
3. Helps With Stretch Marks And Reduces Scarring:
The essential fatty acids found in rosehip oil can help get rid of scars and reduce the appearance of stretch marks by promoting skin regeneration. When applied topically, the essential fatty acids act as emollients helping to soften the skin while also increasing hydration.
Rosehip oil may also help with cases of eczema thanks to its emollient status which means it can provide a protective barrier to the skin while also smoothing out flakiness. The oil can also help to reduce dry scalp and itchiness that are often caused by chemicals in most store-bought shampoos.
