Rosehip Oil users.....is it really a miracle worker for tired/ageing skin?

[Eliza22]

Ive just come back from a week in Seville. It was 49 degrees on some days so, wore my Piz Buin Factor 50, liberally, all over. I didn't tan at all, despite being out in the sun for a lot of activities. However, my skin now looks parched and tired and (horror) I have some freckles developed on my forehead and nose. As I say, no tan at all, just freckles ( sun induced age spots).

I've never had freckles in my life.

Would rosehip oil help?

Bump!!

Rosehip Oil came up as a "Mumsnet Swears by" item ......

No one?

I have the Trilogy one and tbh it's a bit meh. Didn't make any difference to my skin. I do use Dermalogica multivitamin mask though and that makes a huge difference to my face.

The Trilogy one did precisely nothing for me but I know some folks rave about it. I don't think there's any product that works brilliantly for everyone. I love bog standard olive oil, or avocado oil - much cheaper and better results for me.

Thanks

I use Rosehip (I think it's the trilogy one, but can't remember) and it works bloody miracles for me. I have adult acne, particularly on my neck, and my spots have reduced and scarring improved since I started using 3 drops Rosehip oil under moisturiser twice a day. It also seems to have stopped my skin being so greasy - inno longer have make up slipping off my face half way trough the day!

I use it in combination with a really natural skin care regime and OCM a couple of times a week.

Ooh Hopefully - your skin sounds like mine. Am v hopeful now!

I am very hopeful about this! I too have some adult acne that has been vastly improved with antibiotics but I would now like to keep it under control withiout them. My worst issue is redness (could be roseacea? sp?) on my nose. Would rosehip help?
