    Rose hip oil is a bit of a liquid gold. From repairing and regenerating damaged skin tissue to reducing the appearance of acne, scarring and wrinkles, its benefits really are endless.

    But not all rose hip oils are the same. In our video above, I explain the benefits of the Kosmea Certified Organic Rose Hip Oil and why it’s a must-have in every woman’s skin care routine – no matter your skin type or concerns.

    The reason why Kosmea stands out from the rest is because they extract oil from the entire rose hip, and they don’t use heat or chemicals in the process. As a result, the rose hip oil contains up to eight times more vitamin A than competitor brands, as well as over 80 per cent essential fatty acids that help to repair and regenerate damaged skin tissue. Got stretch marks, burns, or pigmentation? It can even improve the appearance of those, too.

    The photo below shows the Kosmea Certified Organic Rose Hip Oil (centre) alongside that of four competitor brands. See how it’s a vibrant orangey-red colour? That’s an indication of its purity.

    To top it off, the rose hips Kosmea use are certified organic, hand picked and ethically sourced from Lesotho in South Africa. So not only is the oil great for getting your glow on, but it also ‘does its bit’ for the environment.

    If you’re keen to give rosehip oil a go (which I highly recommend!), use it morning and night after cleansing. Apply one drop onto fingertips, press together, and massage into damp skin for 30 seconds. It’s so moisturising, you won’t even need to apply a night cream.


    Do you use rose hip oil in your skin care routine? Would you like to try the Kosmea rose hip oil?

    A little bit mixed into your handcream is good too

    I like mixing this oil with my Sukin Night Cream.

    I have used kosmea's replenishing moisture cream and it is amazing. I have not tried another kosmea product yet.

    Interesting . Mine have all been the paler yellow shade but seem to be working well. May have to have another try of the kosmea soon!

    I'm currently using Sukin as a facial oil. Would love to try this!

    I religiously use Trilogy's RHO and love it. Kosmea's might be worth a try next time :)

    Pixie96 7 Jul 2016 6:25 PM

    This oil sounds really good. I'd like to try it on my acne scars.

    I have been lucky enough to try some sample sachets of the Kosmea Rosehip Oil, its a great product and I am pleased it is full of benefits.

    I've always wanted to use Rosehip oil after hearing all the benefits but knowing there is a huge difference between the brands I would give Kosmea a go. Would you be able to purchase this at Priceline or online only?

    I have heard a lot about the Kosmea rose hip oil, all positive too

    I've been a fan of rose hips on and off for the past 7 years now. I find that my skin love it with the fine lines decreasing and hydration level increased, but then stops responding to it after a couple months of use so I give it a break, and use something else (eg. water based serums). I'll then come back to it and my skin will love it again.

    Not sure why but it just how my skin reacts to it.

    I pop a little in with my hand cream too

    I've tried all the rosehip oils from the major brands. Kosmea is one of my favourites; you can really see how much darker the oil is compared to other brands.

    Rosehip oil starts to smell "off" after it has been on my skin for an hour or so. I really don't like it. I love the way it smells in the bottle but my skin seems to turn it rancid for some reason.

    Lilypilly 25 Aug 2015 12:36 AM

    that's because the rosehlip oil has a shelf life like olive oil and should only be kept for 12 mths. Who knows how long its been sitting in the store shelves, warehouses before we purchase it.

    A way to prolong the oil's life (or any other oil really) is to keep it in the fridge so that the oxidisation process is slowed and it takes longer for the oil to go rancid.

    It does sound good. I have been hearing about the benefits of this oil for a while. My night cream contains rose hip oil which makes me happy I'm putting something great on my skin. The Kosmea rose hip oil sounds great.

    Ms Billi 16 Apr 2015 12:40 PM

    I absolutely adore rose hip oil, best stuff ever! I highly recommend it if you haven't tried it

    Neel8888 16 Apr 2015 2:29 AM

    I tried the trilogy one and it broke me out. Has put me off trying other oils :(

    Rose hip oil has seriously changed my life

    I have heard how great rosehip oil is on your skin but I'm yet to try it.
