Rosehip Skincare FAQ's
What exactly is rosehip oil?
Rosehip oil is a cold-pressed oil extracted from the seeds and fruit of wild rose bushes (usually Rosa canina). It's not made from rose petals - that’s rose essential oil. This golden oil is rich in vitamins A, C, and E, along with skin-loving fatty acids that help repair, hydrate, and renew your skin naturally.
Is rosehip oil good for all skin types?
Yes! Rosehip oil is lightweight and non-comedogenic (aka it won’t clog your pores), making it safe for all skin types - from dry to oily, sensitive to breakout-prone. It’s especially loved by those with scars, uneven skin tone, or a dull complexion in need of a glow-up.
Is rosehip oil anti-aging?
Big yes. Thanks to its vitamin A (a natural form of retinol) and antioxidant content, rosehip oil helps reduce fine lines, boost collagen, and improve skin elasticity - all without the irritation some synthetic anti-aging products can cause.
Does rosehip oil help with scars or stretch marks?
Yep! Rosehip oil is known for its ability to fade scars, stretch marks, and hyperpigmentation over time. It encourages skin regeneration and can visibly improve skin texture with consistent use.
How is rosehip oil used in Wild Rising Skincare products?
We use certified organic, cold-pressed rosehip oil in our cult-fave Radiance Face Oil, as seen in Vogue. It’s blended with other nourishing botanicals to deliver the ultimate glow-up, hydrating, healing, and brightening your skin, naturally.
Can I use rosehip oil on my body or hair too?
Yes, yes, yes! Rosehip oil is amazing for dry elbows, knees, cuticles, and even stretch marks. For hair, use a tiny amount on the ends to smooth split ends and add shine, or massage into the scalp to help soothe dryness.
Is rosehip oil good for oily or acne-prone skin?
Yes, and it’s a total myth that oils make oily skin worse. Rosehip oil is lightweight, non-greasy, and high in linoleic acid, which acne-prone skin often lacks. This makes it amazing for balancing sebum and calming breakouts without clogging pores.
