The Ordinary - skincarenobs review for 100% Organic Cold-Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil

Rose hip oil is not derived from the rose, but the small fruit that sits beneath the rose, which contains the seeds of the rose plant. Pressed rosehip seed oil has been valued since ancient times for its many healing properties. It is especially helpful for those with sensitive skin. The main benefits of rosehip seed oil are brightening and evens out the skin, regenerates and heals, helps with anti-aging, elasticity, and collagen production due to its high content of Vitamin A. For those who would love an anti-aging product other than retinol, this is a great option! It is suitable for every skin types including acne skin because it has anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties to help combat acne, also low comedogenicity. It is also found to be very beneficial to improve the overall look of scars. It is rich in linoleic acid and various other essential fatty acids which intensely hydrates the skin. This product has a beautiful chrome color. It may disappoint you, but it does not have rosy scent like what you may think. It smells like olive oil. Despite its oily consistency, it absorbs pretty fast and well on my skin, and leaves the skin shiny. i use this as the last step of my skincare routine after all my serums and moisturizers. It locks all the good stuff into my skin and it is almost guaranteed i wake up with soft, glowy skin! My skin loves it and drinks up all the skincare products and this oil i have applied overnight and i wake up with no trace of oiliness on my skin, only the good glows. I have combination more to oily and acne prone skin but this product has never once clogged up my pores or gave me any pimples. Together with my moisturizer, it helps to speed up the recovery of my skin barrier everytime i over-exfoliate, or a retinol irritation. I LOVE this rosehip seed oil. I recommend this to any skin type particularly the ones with dry and dehydrated skin. This rosehip seed oil is going to bring oasis to the dry sahara desert!
