Rosehip Seed Oil

rosa mosqueta
rosa rubignosa
rosa rubirosa
rosa canina

Rosa mosqueta grows wild in the southern
Andes (Chile) as well as other parts of the world.
The amber seeds inside the hips contain an oil
high in essential fatty acids, GLA, and vitamin C.
Cold-pressed oil contains between
30% and 40% gamma linoleic acid (GLA)
which has valuable uses in treating
skin problems such as eczema and psoriasis.
Can be used as a carrier oil with very small
amounts of essential oils added,
as a massage oil, or added
to other vegetable/nut oils as part of a blend.
Oil reduces scarring, heals burns, and softens
scars and keloids.
It can help diminish broken capillaries,
but may also aggravate acne or blemished skin.
The application of rosa mosqueta oil produced rapid
healing of the inflammation,
darkening and dermatitis caused by radiation.

This is the best antiaging oil to us.
However, it may turn rancid quickly and should be
stored in a cool place or refrigerated.

SAP value: 193.0.
