The world’s best Rosehip Oil starts with the source
Posted January 9, 2023
Rosehip oil is extracted from the beautiful wild rose bush called Rosa Canina, which is native to Europe, regions of Africa, and western Asia.
Rosehips are a truly remarkable fruit and have been used since ancient times for their healing properties. With high levels of essential fatty acids Omega 3 and 6, vitamin A and antioxidants, the fruit has been used as an anti-ageing remedy and for various skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.
Rich in skin nutrients
As a pioneer of Rosehip Oil, we brought this powerful botanical to our customers’ skincare routines in 1993 when our founder discovered its benefits for the skin, and since then we have maintained our commitment to always source the highest quality fruit. Today our Rosehip Oil is the best in the world, because it is the purest and contains the highest levels of Vitamin A.
The very best Rosehip Oil in its purest form
We have consistently maintained our approach to sourcing, manufacturing and bottling the rosehips to provide the most pure and unrefined rosehip oil since we began almost thirty years ago. Our philosophy has been simple – to provide the very best Rosehip Oil in its purest form, so that our customers receive all the benefits that mother nature has so perfectly provided. Rosehip Oil heals, restores and balances the skin, and helps alleviate many challenging skin conditions.
Why is Kosmea’s Rosehip Oil No 1 in the world?
Grown high above sea level, in the Maluti Mountains of Lesotho
Delivering the best Rosehip Oil on the market begins with the very first step of the manufacturing process, the fruit itself. Kosmea sources our pure oils from wildly grown rosehips from the Maluti Mountains of Lesotho, a small country in southern Africa.
We believe the rosehips from this region are the best in the world because:
- The rose hips grow wild and high in the mountains, several thousands of metres above sea level
- They are not commercially farmed, they grow wild
- Unlike rosehips grown in places like Chile which are planted and picked my machinery, the rosehips in Lesotho are planted and handpicked by families, and the fruit is not bruised and remains whole
- We are providing a sustainable income to the community in Lesotho.
At Kosmea we use the entire rose hip (fruit, skin, and seed) with a supercritical fluid extraction process. This most expensive form of processing ensures that the oil contains the highest-possible concentrations of skin-nourishing vitamin A.
5 ethical and sustainable reasons to buy from Kosmea
Benefits of Rosehip Oil for the skin
Rosehip oil is high in essential fatty acids
The body cannot produce Omega 3 and 6 which are essential fatty acids needed to repair damaged skin tissue and regenerate skin cells. Kosmea’s Certified Organic Rosehip Oil is guaranteed to contain a minimum of 80% essential fatty acids.
Rosehip Oil is a natural source of vitamin A
Vitamin A slows down the breakdown of collagen and elastin and therefore it reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles that are caused by ageing and sun damage. Our Rosehip Oil has 10X more vitamin A than any other Rosehip Oil on the market.
Rosehip Oil is high in antioxidants
Rosehip Oil is rich in a range of antioxidants, including beta-carotene and lycopene which protect and repair skin from the effects of stress, pollution, dehydration and other environmental factors that lead to premature ageing.
Rosehip Oil has anti-inflammatory properties
The essential fatty acids in Rosehip Oil are anti-inflammatory. They help alleviate the symptoms of acne, eczema, psoriasis and other skin conditions such as dryness and itchiness.
