Greenwood Essential Pure Rosehip Seed Oil (Rosa rubiginosa) Cold Pressed 630ml (21 oz)

Comes in card box sealed via sticky tape, inside is a glass bottle containing 15ml of pure Rose hip seed essential oil. Once you unscrew the plastic lid there is a tightly fitted plastic stopper which you replace with a pipette for dispensing the oil. The scent is very subtle, I wouldn’t say fragrance free. Nice light oil.

Nice clear and pleasant oil. Comes in a good quality bottle with a nice dropper which makes it easier to use. Feels nice and appears to be of good quality. Smells fresh.

Feels nice on the skin. Handy dropper lets you control what you want to use. Only time will tell if it has any effect.

Comes in a small box with a dropper. You might need to pull the glass dropper down to make it useable. The oil doesn't have much scent - fairly non-existent so no use for burners. As to adding it to products to be better for your skin, I didn't feel any improvement to be honest. Maybe I'm too cynical. Other products from the same company are great (except the cucumber oil) so if you are really struck on rosehip then this product is fine. If you want to try something magical then don't.

Rosehip oil not only does the fatty acids and vitamin in rosehip oil help to moisturise the skin, but also promote skin regeneration, and can improve skin flexibility and permeability. Rosehip oil can improve skin texture and even reduce the appearance of acne scars or stretch marks. Rosehip oil has so many benefits for skin It hydrates It moisturiser. It helps exfoliate and helps brightens skin. It helps boost collagen formation. It helps reduce inflammation. It helps protect against sun damage. It helps reduce hyperpigmentation and many more.

Came in a rather cheap-looking thin cardboard box with a separate pipette. The glass tube of the pipette was right up the rubber teat, so squeezing the pipette could have broken the glass. Fortunately I spotted this in time and adjusted the pipette correctly. The outer box did not mention cold pressed. So, initial impressions not good. The bottle mentions "cold-pressed" just once, in the middle of the label. The "ingrediant" (sic) is Pure Rosehip Seed Oil. First, I put a few drops on my arm as is strongly sun-damaged from sunbathing in the 70s. My idea was to compare it with the other arm - similarly sun-damaged. The oil has no smell (correct - the seeds should have no smell), and was bright yellow. Initially I thought it had stained my skin yellow - not a pretty sight. The colour had gone after an hour - a long time. A quick search online suggested that cold-pressed rosehip seed oil is reddish in hue and has an opened life of only 90 days. Chemically extracted rosehip seed oil, according to this source, is yellow and has a longer life. This oil is yellow and has an expiry of 36 months after opening. (The unopened expiry was 08/2023 and the date of manufacture 09/2020 suggesting the same 36 months without opening.) Make what you will of that, but it left me feeling little trust in this product. As there are many competing suppliers of rose-hip oil, including organic or wild-harvested in Siberia, cold pressed and better priced and reviewed, I've decided to discontinue use of this product and find one that I can trust.

Rosehip oil can be used as a carrier oil and mixed with essential oils to be used for massaging etc. On its own rosehip oil is bright yellow but this does rub into the skin and doesn't turn the skin yellow. Rosehip oil is filled with nourishing fatty acids and vitamins A and C and can be used for - -treating acne scars and pigmentation -rub under eyes as rosehip oil is also anti imflammatory. You can also add rosehip oil to baking soda and use it as an exfoliator although I haven't tried this yet. Overall this is a great oil with many uses - it seems its on the expensive side but you literally just use one drop at a time so it will last quite a while, I have used Rosehip oil for many years although this is the first time I have used this brand but its equally as good and better than some other brands. Would recommend for the above reasons

A small bottle that packs a punch. Rosehip seed oil is supposedly great for your skin on many levels. Personally I have tried lots of different products on my skin with varying effects so I thought I would give this a go. The bottle itself is small, holding just 15ml of rosehip seed oil. This doesn’t sound like much but I have to say that actually I was surprised just how little I needed to use and potentially how long therefore this should last. The bottle arrived sealed with a separate pipette. Once the cap seal is broken simply throw the lid away and drop in the pipette. The oil itself has a rich and dark yellow colouring which initially left me concerned it would colour my skin but when I used it there was no visible colouring left behind. You really do need to use just one drop around the eye area and gently massage in. Of course my skin felt my softer to the touch immediately but even after a few hours my skin still felt silky smooth. The oil has no aroma, not that I could detect anyway and it isn’t sticky or such like. It just feels nice on your skin. Does it work? I can’t really tell. I personally think my skin looks healthier and it definitely feels softer but would anyone else notice? I am not so sure. Having said that it does feel like a good investment as like I said, I can see a healthier and somewhat less aged version of myself so what’s not to like about that?

Poor package, dropper doesn’t work, the oil texture and moisture is not as expected,

Si stende bene, la pelle è idratata e fresca. Certo, serve costanza, applicarlo due volte al giorno. Questa marca è la prima volta che la uso. È ottima.
