The Science of Skincare: Rosehip Seed Oil

· Leave a Comment

Rosehip Seed Oil is an ingredient we may take for granted, but rosehip oil gets things done. Organic rosehip oil is a beauty superhero. We’ve recently featured it in shampoos, skin, and body treatments. Let’s examine the research on this beauty powerhouse. Plus, see some of our favorite products that use Rosehip Seed Oil.

What is Rosehip Seed Oil?

Rosehip Seed Oil is also known as Rosa Canina Seed Oil.  It comes from the fruit and seeds of the rosa canina rose bush. The fruit and seeds are packed with nutrients.

Rosehip Seed Oil is both a treating and a hydrating ingredient. It offers the benefits of Vitamin C and Retinol serums (Vitamin A). It refines texture and lightens dark spots but without the skin irritation associated with the aforementioned actives.

When unrefined, Rosehip Oil retains more of the benefits. It also carries a heavy scent. Refined Rosehip oil has far less scent but fewer benefits. Cold-pressed Rosehip oil retains maximum benefits.

 

Rosehip Research RoundUp: What Rosehip Oil Does

Rich in nutrients and vitamins, Rosehip Seed Oil addresses multiple skin concerns at once.

Wild Rosehip Oil is high in Vitamins A, C, and E. They provide nutrients, fade acne scars and promote cell turnover.

 

Reduce Wrinkles, Keep Skin Hydrated

Rose Hip oil retains moisture in the skin cells. Vitamins E and C work synergistically to keep skin hydrated during rejuvenation. This hydration reduces wrinkles and improves skin elasticity. [1]

Skin That Glows, Dry Skin Relief

Rosehip oil has omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 makes skin glow, as well as soothe and moisturize eczema or dry skin. [2] It is also useful to soothe the skin from any irritation. I find it works well on acne scars and rougher skin areas.

Cold Pressed Rosehip Oil retains linoleic acid. Linoleic acid (Vitamin F) is an omega-6 fatty acid with skin barrier-strengthening, healing, hydrating and anti-inflammatory properties.  It is the predominant fat in skin cells. This forms a lipid barrier that holds moisture in skin cells, which keeps skin at optimal hydration levels.

Collagen Enhancing

Rosehip oil is collagen enhancing and preserving. It contains Vitamins A and C for collagen production.

Rosehip has one hundred times more C than an orange. Studies show topical Vitamin C application creates meaningful anti-aging change within Rosehips contain vitamin C60 days. Improvements were seen in all ages groups and were notable for improvement to the thickness of the epidermis and dermis. [3] Rosehip oil delivers potent Vitamin C without the irritation found in many topical Cs.

Rosehip oil also inhibits MMP-1, an enzyme that breaks down collagen within the body. [4]

Antioxidant

Rosehip Oil contains powerful antioxidants to remove toxins and improve skin texture. Visible results can be seen especially quickly on sun-damaged skin.

Redness, Rosacea & Skin Tone

Rosehip oil has retinoic acid. This clears red marks, uneven skin tone and even helps rosacea.

Hair & Scalp Health

Healthy scalps grow healthy hair, Rosehip oil balances oil production for clearer scalp skin. Vitamin E keeps brittle hair hydrated. Rosehip oil combined with a carrier oil makes for a wonderful scalp massage.

The Experience

Just a pea-size amount is enough to spread very thinly over all areas of discoloration and uneven texture. I put it on acne scars, age spots, under my nostrils, and around my mouth.

It does not sting or cause irritated skin. I love that it is fragrance-free!

I used it daily and in about 3 weeks I saw a big difference in the evenness of my skin tone, my dark spots are lighter and seem smaller, even my decade-old acne scars. Next I am trying it on a childhood scar.

Friday Favorites with Kat Burki Power Trio Radiance Oil

· Leave a Comment

This week’s Friday Favorite is Kat Burki Power Trio Radiance Oil. Learn about the beauty benefits of one of our favorite dry oils!
Kat Burki Power Trio Radiance Oil contains collagen-building Red Raspberry Seed Oil, rich in ellagic acid.

Kat Burki Power Trio Radiance Oil contains collagen-building Red Raspberry Seed Oil, rich in ellagic acid.

Why We Love It

This golden, silky, dry oil combines three power oils for stellar skin results. One of those oils is Red Raspberry Seed Oil.

Red Raspberry Seed Oil moisturizes the skin, builds collagen, improves elasticity, and reduces wrinkles and fine lines.

Red Raspberry Seed Oil is gentle yet effective in addressing many skin issues associated with acne and aging.

Raspberry Seed Oil Facts

  1. Raspberry Seed Oil is rich in Ellagic acid which reduces the destruction of collagen as well as protects against Ultraviolet sun damage. [1] Ellagic acid is also a moisture sealant.
  2. Raspberry Seed Oil contains collagen-building Salicylic Acid.
  3. Raspberry seed Oil also contains a high amount of Omega-6 and Omega-3 essential fatty acids.
  4. Raspberry Seed Oil has been shown to reduce the destruction of collagen as well as protect against Ultraviolet damage from the sun. Raspberry Seed Oil contains phytosterols that promote new collagen production.
  5. Red Raspberry oil has a high Vitamin E content. Vitamin E reduces skin damage and removes free radicals that contribute to skin aging.

Waterless Beauty

Kat Burki Power Trio Radiance Oil is also a waterless product. Yet it retains moisture without diluting the ingredients.

Water is usually at the beginning of the ingredient list- most of the time making up almost 70 to 80% of the formula. Cutting water from the formulation actually creates a more hydrating product because it won’t interfere with our skin’s natural sebum protective barrier.

The Experience

Kat Burki Power Trio Radiance Oil spreads well. It leaves skin with a non-sticky, non-greasy glow. It seals in skincare products without pilling. 

Just a few drops cover the face, throat, and upper decolletage.

GOOPGLOW 15% Glycolic Acid Overnight Glow Peel

· Leave a Comment

Wake up with glowing skin with this Overnight Glow Peel. This once a week treat is chock full of skin-friendly ingredients such as Kakadu Plum

About GOOP GLOW Peel

While I love glycolic acid, I didn’t see what would be so special about THIS glycolic acid pad versus other glycolic acid peels available at a fraction of the price. Boy was I surprised to see what a refined result GOOP GLOW gives!

This is likely due to the notable ingredient lineup and the design of the peel pad itself.

With aHA, there is almost never the uneven peeling that often comes with many chemical peels or scrubs, so there is less post-peel downtime with AHA. Skin is just soft and dewy looking, not red and irritated.

While skin can get red and irritated from AHA, as long as it is done properly, irritation will be short-lived, so it makes for an excellent anti-aging product.

First, let’s take a look at the ingredients paired with aHA in GOOP GLOW:

Key Ingredients

Glycolic Acid (AHA)

15% AHA, and Alpha Hydroxy Acid from sugar cane. With an AHA peel, it loosens the “glue” that holds dead skin cells without scrubbing or rubbing the skin.

There is also a light version with 5% AHA, a much gentler approach ideal for skin that uses topicals such as Retinol or super sensitive skin types.

 

Australian Kakadu Plum

Kakadu plums are the highest natural source of vitamin C to support collagen synthesis and provide antioxidant support. It reduces acne, fades scars, and reduces fine lines.

Kakadu plums are also high in gallic acid and ellagic acid to fight free radicals, hydrate the skin and prevent the skin from damage.

Mango

Mangifera Indica Pulp Extract

Also known as Mango.

Mango is an emollient. Rich in fatty acids, it keeps skin hydrated and nourished.

Mango extract also contains Vitamins C, A, E, K, and B6.

Mango Seed Extract is high in copper, which supports Collagen, Elastin and increases Hyaluronic Acid production within the skin.

Hyaluronic Acid Trio

This formula contains three molecular sizes of Hyaluronic Acid to provide optimal hydration.

 

Glycerin

Glycerin is a natural vegetable-derived humectant. Glycerin helps the skin to retain moisture. Glycerin fills in gaps in dryer skin which makes skin look better and keeps the outer layer of the skin intact.

Musa sapientum (Banana) Pulp Extract

Banana extract is anti-inflammatory[1], antibiotic, and anti-oxidant. [2]

Zizyphus Jujuba Seed Extract

Also known as Chinese date. It is in the buckthorn family and behaves like jojoba.

Lavender

Lavendula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil

Lavender Oil softens the skin.

Lavender’s anti-microbial and anti-bacterial properties keep skin healthy. It has soothing properties to calm imbalances such as inflammation or dry skin flaking.

The Experience

This is a dual-sided pad. It has an exfoliative basket-weave texture side and a smooth side.

texture

 

The dual-layer design has a finger pocket. It is useful for an even, clean application.

Each pad is in a sealed packet. These pads are well-saturated. One pad treats my face, décolletage, collarbone, and neck. I apply any remaining product to the top of my hands.


I experienced no redness or irritation in the morning.

Two days later, I had very light peeling on the sides of my nose.  The peel loosened up stubborn side-of-the-nose-blackheads. A few days after my whiteheads began to subside and purge.

 

Where to Find It

GOOPGLOW 15% Glycolic Acid Overnight Glow Peel is available at GOOP.com and Sephora

It is available in a 3 month supply 12 pack of pads.
