O&3 Rosehip Seed Oil, Cold Pressed (R Colour)

O&3 presents Rosehip Seed Oil, Cold Pressed (R Color). One of our favorites, this classic ingredient has been building momentum across the industry & for good reason. This particular grade is called "R Color" as it is more RED in color due to some of the pulp being used in the pressing of the oil. Some people prefer a more orange grade, so please check out that grade if you prefer. Both options are available, however the Orange is more popular due to the Red being quite an over-powering dose of red. Wild harvested, this oil is handpicked & then lightly pressed to produce a golden-red tinted oil. With regards to our Canina grade, the hips are dried, cleaned & then lightly cold pressed. Rosehips are known to have a vast vitamin A & E content hence its popularity in formulations. Often referred to as a 'tonic' oil, if it is not in your formulation, we recommend serving this oil just as it is & applied directly to the skin & face. It is a diuretic oil containing trans-retinoic acid which carries many a therapeutic property. It has been used for centuries as a skin cell & tissue repairer hence its growing popularity. You can now see why it is not an oil you want to ignore.
