Balancing Rosehip Oil O3
Our rosehip oil is extracted from rosehip fruits and seeds by CO2 (superior to cold-press techniques) and blended with a touch of vitamin E. We present it in an amber
glass bottle to prevent oxidisation and with a dropper to minimise waste. High in pro vitamin A and essential fatty acids, it benefits all skin types.
