3 ways you didn't know you could use Rosehip Oil
While our Rosehip BioRegenerate Oil is famous for fading scars, calming breakouts and evening out pigmentation, its regenerative powers extend well beyond facial skincare. From split ends to stubborn cuticles, this cult face oil (over a million bottles sold and counting) has some surprising talents.
Damaged hair and sensitive scalps
Hair that's been through the wars with colouring, heat styling or just general neglect? The same essential fatty acids that repair skin barriers work on hair too. Massage a few drops of Rosehip BioRegenerate into dry ends before washing, leave for 20 minutes, then shampoo as normal. The omega-3, -6 and -9 fatty acids penetrate the hair shaft, restoring moisture and shine without the greasy residue of traditional hair masks.
For post-shave irritation, massage a drop or two into damp skin after shaving. The anti-inflammatory compounds calm irritation while the oil's natural antimicrobial properties help ward off ingrown hairs.
Cuticles that mean business
Pai founder Sarah Brown keeps a bottle on her desk specifically for cuticle emergencies. The concentrated sterols and polyphenols that regenerate facial skin work just as effectively on ragged cuticles and dry nail beds. One drop massaged in nightly keeps them soft, healthy and hang-nail free.
Instant cheekbone glow
Here's where our CO2 extraction really shows off. Because we extract both the rosehip fruit and seed (not just the seed like most oils), our oil has that distinctive deep orange colour from concentrated carotenoids. These same antioxidants that brighten skin over time also create an instant healthy glow when patted over makeup.
Add a drop to your beauty blender or fingertips and press onto cheekbones, brow bones, or anywhere you want a natural highlight. The oil melts into makeup without disturbing it, leaving a lit-from-within finish that powder highlighters can't match.
The beauty of a genuinely potent face oil is its versatility. When you're getting up to 700% more polyphenols than standard cold-pressed rosehip oils (thanks to our CO2 supercritical extraction), a little goes a remarkably long way. One bottle, four different ways to put those concentrated polyphenols to work.
