Rosehip oil, certified organic

Organic, cold-pressed virgin rosehip oil is extracted from the seeds of Rosa canina and is one of the most sought-after cosmetic oils in modern skincare. Celebrated for its lightweight, fast-absorbing texture and naturally nourishing properties, rosehip oil is a star ingredient in serums and moisturisers. It is also popular for use on its own, leaving the skin feeling soft, supple and conditioned without a heavy finish, making it ideal for most skin types.

Skincare Uses

Lightweight and fast-absorbing: Rosehip oil is often used in skincare formulations for its ability to absorb quickly, leaving the skin feeling soft and conditioned without a greasy residue.

Nourishing and versatile: Its naturally nourishing properties make it a favoured ingredient in DIY formulations such as serums, moisturisers and facial oils, helping to leave the skin feeling soft, smooth and radiant.

Haircare Uses

Softening and conditioning: In haircare, rosehip oil is often used to help soften and condition the hair, leaving it feeling smooth with a healthy-looking shine.

Protection for delicate hair: Applying a small amount to damp hair is often recommended for those with brittle or colour-treated hair, as it can help protect against dryness while adding a touch of natural conditioning.

Additional Uses

Versatile cosmetic ingredient: Beyond skincare and haircare, organic rosehip oil is a popular addition to a wide range of DIY cosmetic formulations, valued for its lightweight texture, silky skin feel and elegant finish.

Sustainability & Sourcing

Our journey to bring you rosehip oil begins in the heart of Africa, where responsible, sustainable wild harvesting preserves the purity of local ecosystems. In Lesotho, wild rosehip harvesting is a lifeline for rural communities, especially women, offering economic empowerment through meaningful, locally accessible employment. Collaborating closely with these communities helps support the development of sustainable harvesting methods that protect the environment while providing a reliable source of income. With growing demand from the cosmetics and wellness industries, this initiative strengthens rural economies while helping safeguard these unique natural resources for future generations.
