PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A light yellow to darker yellow oil with a faint aroma that is pressed from the fruit / hips of the wild rose bush.
This is 99.5% Rosehip Fruit Oil and we have added 0.35% Vitamin E as a powerful antioxidant to keep the oil from oxidising. That Vitamin E is suspended in 0.15% Sunflower Seed Oil to make it pourable. Without this added antioxidant, the oil would have a shelf life of only a few months before it goes rancid. We add the antioxidant to ensure the quality and therapeutic action for longer. It is best to store this oil in the fridge.
- Use 1% to 100%. Although safe to use neat on the skin, the high level of Omega 3 can make the oil feel tight on the skin. We feel the oil is much more elegant when blended with other oils.
- Oil soluble so cannot be used in water only products. It can be used in small amounts in water based gels that will hold it in suspension.
- Not heat stable so should be used in Stage 3 (cool stage) when making creams and lotions.
Rosehip Seed Oil blends very well with other oils that have a much fattier or greasy feel to them like Shea Butter. The dryness of the Rosehip Seed Oil makes the combination feel very elegant.
For sensitive skin, blend it with Peach Kernel Oil or Apricot Kernel Oil to improve the resilience of the skin.

HOW TO USE IT
Skin Care
- Rosehip Seed Oil has a light and non greasy texture that feels quite dry. It sinks into the skin rapidly without leaving any greasy after feel. It is excellent to moisturise dry and damaged skin.
- Helps to give a more even skin tone.
- A great oil to use for acne prone skin as it has such a light texture.
- Rosehip Seed Oil contains a natural form of Vitamin A which is a powerful antioxidant. Combined with the high Omega 3 content, this oil is superb for smoothing the skin and helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles especially on mature skin.
- As it has a short surface time on the skin, it is excellent for use under makeup.
- Rosehip Seed Oil balances skin tone to promote an even glow.
- It has an excellent, balanced ratio of Omega 3, Omega 6 and Omega 9. This makes it ideal to use in oil blends for all skin types and very simple to use in gel formulations where less of an oil can be included therefore using a good, balanced oil is ideal.
- In anti aging skincare products, Rosehip Seed Oil keeps the skin soft, supple and radiant.
Hair Care
- Rosehip Seed Oil tones an oily scalp. It will also improve the resilience of a sensitive scalp.
- The scalp will be moisturised without feeling greasy or heavy.

FIVE STARS!
Quality is as good if not better than the Brand name Water picks. This flosser is super powerful and gets the spots a toothbrush can’t! I would recommend it to anyone.

Heads do not click in place
I got this flosser for an upcoming trip, but it is way to big. Would take up entirely too much room in my carry on. Whats more, the heads on the device do not click into place, which means it leaks and sprays all over. I took the plastic guard off one of the heads and that works better but it still leaks. I have done everything except hammer the heads in, but still, they do not click or twist into place. I cannot vouch for how well it works since I am unable to keep the heads on.
