Swisse Rose Hip Antioxidant Facial Oil Reviews

I bought this oil after doing some research on how benificial rosehip oil can be for acne and acne scarring which is what I was suffering with, after using this oil for only a couple of days I was noticing my acne was going away and was much less painful, after going through 3 bottles of this stuff my skin is glowing and clear!

This is the first Swisse skincare product I've tried and I really like the quality. I use rosehip oil on any dry patches on my body and only very sparingly on the face. I have oily combination skin so I dont tend to use this much on my face.

My favourite way to ise this is to apply on my legs after shaving and it helps to rehydrate my skin afterwards. I also get dry skin on my arms and a little bit of this really helps. I think the addition of vitamin E really helps.

The scent is slightly sweet citrusy, like oranges. But it is very light. The oil absorbs easily and not greasy at all.

I adore facial oils in my skincare routine, this is no exception. I would recommend this to anyone after a not overly sticky or heavy facial oil. I think that this wouldn't be suitable for most for day time use however, I personally use it as part of my nighttime skincare routine. Additionally, if you had particularly oily skin this might be a bit too heavy as well.

The only reason this didn't get 5/5 stars is because there are lots of other rosehip oils that are very similar, but Swisse is priced competitively and comparable quality to all the others.

I am not sure when Swise became a part of the beauty routine but I am sure glad they did. I actually bought this product as it was on special at the supermarket (great that you can get these products at Coles and Woolworths and chemist warehouse). I had never tried their beauty products before this one but am pleased I did.

This has since become a daily night time occurrence in my routine and I have to say if I run out or forget to apply this rosehip oil I really feel it in my skin at nighttime. I love the instant and intense hydration it gives right away and automatically my skin feels cleansed after the shower and important vitamins being replaced. I am a huge fan of rosehip because I have red and acne prone skin and you wouldn't think oil ontop of oily skin could be useful but this helps me a lot. I still get break outs but I love how smooth it makes my skin feel and the benefits it delivers. The pump bottle is an absolute winner in my eyes and is so easy to you, you don't get any spillage or oil stains anywhere. It is small enough to keep permanently in your makeup bag and to take with you.

Overall, it delivers so much hydration and I am loving it, I have repurchased this product!

This oil used up really quickly which is annoying and that was because of the pump on the bottle that made more come out than was needed so you wasted a lot. The oil itself just didn't seem as good quality as some other brands I've tried. It didn't really help with acne or redness which other brands do. It smelt weird. I just wasn't that impressed by it. Won't be repurchasing.

I have combination skin and I use it every morning after cleansing. It is more lightweight than the argan oil and sinks into the skin faster, however I would still recommend waiting a bit before applying makeup. Once absorbed, it doesn't leave a greasy or oily feeling and doesn't leave you shiny.

The oil is slightly yellow in colour and has a slight plant-based scent (I can't really put my finger on it), but it doesn't bother me and I don't really smell it on my skin after application.

I found that it helped even out my skin tone and helps my skin feel moisturised throughout the day.

I like the packaging as you can see how much product you have left, and the pump is also convenient.

The brown bottle with a pump in my mind is fair superior then a dropper that some others have. I feel it’s less likely to get air in the bottle and turn the oil bad I like the feel of my skin after it is softer and less dry I add a few drops to my face cream or I’ll apply to my damp face I find it’s easier to spread that way

I’ll continue to use it to hopefully slow down any damage to my skin that comes with age but if that doesn’t work at least my skin will feel nicer

I wanted to love this product because it ticks so many boxes - made by an Australian company that is carbon neutral (big yay!), it's certified organic and contains no nasties like parabens, SLS, SLES, synthetic fragrances, colours, petroleum products, silicones, mineral oils, PEGS, TEA, DEA, urea, peroxide, nano particles, animal products and animal testing. Sadly it was not meant to be.

Product comes in a very generous sized 50ml light-protected dark glass bottle with a pump dispenser and secure overcap which is great for traveling. It is a blend of oils ie. rosehip (99.25%), tocopherols (vit e) and essential oil blend of grapefruit, orange, palmarosa, listea cubeba and rose geranuim.

That sounds nice and fruity right? It's not, it stinks like fish. It is a pale yellow medium viscosity oil and has an awful fishy scent - so much so that I cannot use it anywhere near my face or it makes me nauseous. I use it instead as a winter moisture boost to my body creams. Will stick to using my Trilogy rosehip oil for my face as the scent is much more preferable to this one. Once I have used it up in my body creams I won't be repurchasing.

I used to love this product and used it religiously because it was very good for my skin, and I noticed a difference in terms of moisturising my face. However, I noticed that one of the bottles I bought in April smelled a bit rank. I called Swisse and they said that they changed some of the ingredients that they used to make this product due to supply issues, and the smell was a lot stronger than it used to be. Unfortunately there was no warning on the packaging. However they were very courteous and replaced the product free of charge with the Argan face oil. I would say that it's not for those who are more sensitive in terms of smell, even though the product benefits are good. :)
