FAQs - Rosehip Oil
-
Will it make my skin oily?
Rosehip is considered a "dry" oil. It has a smaller molecular structure than many other oils, allowing it to absorb quickly and leave a matte-satin finish rather than a greasy one.
-
Does it have a strong scent?
True cold-pressed Rosehip Oil has a very faint, slightly nutty, or earthy aroma. It does not smell like roses (which comes from the flower petals), as the oil is extracted from the fruit and seeds.
-
Is it suitable for all skin types?
Yes! Its lightweight nature makes it a popular choice for everything from dry to oily and combination skin.
