Rosehip Oil Problem

5 replies

agirlcalledsandoz · 30/05/2012 11:16

I have been using Rosehip Oil on my face at night time to help with pigmentation. I really like the results, skin is looking great, but the only thing is that it stains my pillow and quilt cover where it touches my face. Is there anything I can do to stop it ? Don't want to stop using it as I like it and I normally put it on at least an hour before I go to bed but still stains.

It sounds as though you might be putting a bit too much on. You could try using less, and really massaging it in so that it works into your skin rather than sitting on the top. Applying the oil an hour or so before you go to sleep, rather than right before might also give it more chance to sink in. Failing that, a towel over your pillow or use an old inexpensive pillowcase for nights when you are applying the oil.

put it on a bit earlier so it has time to absorb before going to bed?

How much are you using? Mine says to use just a couple of drops. I use about 3 large drops and that covers my whole face.

Yep, you must be using too much, you only need three or four drops.

def using too much, should have almost absorbed by the time you go to bed

Thanks everyone. I was putting on about 6 drops so def too much. Just put it on now and used 3 drops and massaged it in well. Hopefully no more stained pillows x
