Beauty Tips For Body Care
For those interested in the science behind their skin care, let's examine the claims about Rosehip oil together.Popular claims about rosehip oil:- high in antioxidants / anti-aging / protects from photo aging- contains retinoic acid or some form of vitamin A- contains fatty acids, which are beneficial for skin health- addresses scarring- others?First of all, rose hip refers to all members of the Rosa genus. The most common species is Rosa canina. So let's be sure to specify which species articles are referring to.Let's also be careful that rose hip can refer to the fruit or the oil, and here we are focusing on the oil. We are also focusing on the topical application (as opposed to eating it).I am especially interested in finding any sources that can shed light on the claim that the typical rose hip oil (Rosa canina) contains Vitamin C or A in the form of retinoic acid.There's already a great source from Oregon State for how fatty acids benefit skin (that some nice user shared with me a while back) here. If you have no time to read it: eating Omega-3s and applying oils provide benefits to skin through multiple pathways.So grab an article from PubMed and let's get started.NOTE: I will be updating this post as I go.
