Rose Hip Oil

Description

Rose Hip Oil contains provitamin A (mostly beta-Carotene).  It also contains levels (up to .357 ml/L) of tretinoin or all-trans retinoic acid, a vitamin A acid that retinol converts to.[1]  Similarly, while the fruit is rich in Vitamin C, Rose Hip Oil does not contain any, as it is a water-soluble vitamin. Rose hip seed oil is high in the essential fatty acids: linoleic acid or omega-6, and linolenic acid or omega-3.
