INCI: Rosa canina

Escentia Rosehip Seed Oil (Rosa canina) - Cold Pressed is a pure cold-pressed carrier oil produced in South Africa and used in skincare blends where a richer, more active-feeling plant oil is wanted. It is especially popular in facial oils, treatment-style blends, and body care routines for dry-feeling or mature-looking skin. This is a carrier oil, not an essential oil, so it can be used on its own or blended with other suitable oils. Its colour can vary naturally from golden orange to deep red depending on the season, which is part of the character of this unrefined product.

♡ Why we love it: Rosehip seed oil is one of those beautiful botanical oils that feels especially at home in more thoughtful skincare rituals. It brings a rich, nourishing feel to the skin, and we love that this South African cold-pressed version keeps its naturally vibrant character from batch to batch.
