The oil is also known by the English name Rosehip Oil and is a true classic in pro-age skin care. Our rosehip oil is organic, cold-pressed and unrefined, and has a beautiful orange-red color and an earthy, warm scent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow is Rosehip Oil made?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRose hips are the fruits of the rose bush and contain dozens of small white-yellow seeds. The oil is pressed from these seeds. With cold-pressed, unrefined oil, no heat above 30 degrees is used during pressing, so that the natural fatty acids, carotenoids and dyes are preserved. The refined version is paler in color and odorless, but lacks many of the active ingredients. The cold-pressed variant is therefore the variant with the real effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy is Rosehip oil so special?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes rosehip oil unique is its extremely high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids. The oil consists of about 45 to 55% linoleic acid (omega 6) and 25 to 35% alpha-linolenic acid (omega 3). That high proportion of omega-3 is exceptional for a vegetable oil and is what makes the oil so well-known for barrier repair and skin care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, rosehip oil naturally contains carotenoids (including beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A) and trace amounts of trans-retinoic acid. The amount of retinoic acid in rosehip oil is very small, about 0.0000358%, so you can't compare it to a pharmaceutical retinol or tretinoin cream. The pro-age effect of rosehip oil comes mainly from the combination of essential fatty acids, carotenoids and antioxidants, which together support skin renewal and barrier. The orange-red color of the oil comes directly from these carotenoids, which also explains why the oil can temporarily give the skin a somewhat orange tint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBenefits of Rosehip Oil for your skin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupports the skin barrier\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe high content of linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid supports the natural skin barrier and helps with dry or thirsty skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePro-age operation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe naturally occurring carotenoids and traces of retinoic acid make rosehip oil a popular choice for softening fine lines and promoting an even skin texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHelps with scars and stretch marks\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRosehip oil has been used for years to soften scars, stretch marks and pigmentation spots.

Due to the orange-red color, the oil is best used as night care. Do you want to use it during the day? Then mix with a lighter base oil such as jojoba oil or squalane, then the skin will not remain orange. The oil is suitable for the face and the rest of the body, and is a great ingredient in DIY facial serums or body butters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCan you use Rosehip oil during pregnancy and in the sun?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, in both cases you can. Rosehip oil has been used for years by pregnant women to soothe stretch marks. The amount of trans-retinoic acid is so small that there is no real risk, even during pregnancy. However, we always advise: are you pregnant and are you in doubt? Then consult your midwife or doctor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRosehip oil is also safe to use in the sun. However, we recommend using the oil in the evening. This has nothing to do with phototoxicity, but with two other reasons: the orange color can give off temporarily, and the rich unsaturated fatty acids oxidize faster in bright sunlight. In the evening, the oil is given time to soak in quietly without oxidation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTips for using Rosehip oil\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosehip oil naturally has an earthy, warm scent that is described by some as a bit fishy. That's just part of this pure, unrefined oil.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe oil oxidizes relatively quickly due to the high content of unsaturated fatty acids. Store the bottle in a cool and dark place, and preferably use it within 6 months of opening.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNever heat rosehip oil above 40 degrees. Always add the oil to DIY recipes in the cold phase.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe oil can temporarily give the skin a somewhat orange tint. Mix with a lighter oil if you want to avoid this.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Natural Heroes","offers":[{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":53165528219991,"sku":"BRBO-NH-5","price":4.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 ml","offer_id":53165528252759,"sku":"BRBO-NH-1","price":13.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ml","offer_id":53165528285527,"sku":"BRBO-NH-2","price":29.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":53165528318295,"sku":"BRBO-NH-FS","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"300 ml","offer_id":53165528351063,"sku":"BRBO-NH-3","price":54.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"1000 ml (jerrycan)","offer_id":53165528383831,"sku":"BRBO-NH-4","price":109.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/5214\/4215\/files\/128-bottle-b-30-1KSQ-sRGB.png?v=1774934763","url":"https:\/\/alhalalcosmetics.nl\/en-nl\/products\/rosehip-oil-organic-cold-pressed","provider":"Halal Cosmetics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
