Organic rosehip oil has swiftly become one of the most sought-after cosmetic oils in skincare, celebrated for its lightweight, fast-absorbing texture and naturally nourishing properties. It’s not only a star ingredient in serums and moisturisers but also popular for use on its own, providing a smooth, hydrated feel to the skin without a heavy finish. Unlike richer oils, rosehip oil absorbs seamlessly, making it ideal for all skin types, especially those seeking hydration without the weight. Its versatility and gentle yet effective support for achieving a radiant complexion have positioned it as a go-to ingredient in the industry.

In haircare, rosehip oil provides a similar benefit, helping to keep strands moisturised and promoting a soft, shiny finish. Applying a small amount to damp hair can protect against dryness, particularly for brittle or colour-treated hair, while adding a touch of natural conditioning.

Sustainability
Our journey to bring you rosehip oil begins in the heart of Africa, where responsible, sustainable wild-harvesting preserves the purity of local ecosystems. In Lesotho, wild rosehip harvesting is a lifeline for rural communities, especially women, offering economic empowerment through meaningful, locally accessible employment. Collaborating closely with these communities helps to support the development of sustainable harvesting methods that protect the environment and ensure a steady income, enhancing both livelihoods and ecological health. With rising demand in cosmetics and wellness, this initiative strengthens the rural economy while helping secure the unique resources of the region for generations to come.
