Skin Concerns:
Acne-prone and oily skin
Scarring (acne, surgical, injury-related)
Hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone
Fine lines and loss of firmness
Compromised skin barrier
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
Dull, lackluster complexion
Sun damage and photoaging
Stretch marks
-
Oily and combination skin (regulates sebum)
Acne-prone skin (non-comedogenic)
Normal skin seeking maintenance
Dehydrated skin lacking barrier function
Sensitive skin (anti-inflammatory)
Mature skin showing cellular aging
Post-procedure skin needing gentle regeneration
Especially Beneficial For: People who find traditional facial oils too heavy or comedogenic. The dual-linoleic formula absorbs rapidly without residue while delivering concentrated botanical actives.

This isn't just rosehip seeds in any carrier oil—it's rosehip seeds infused in grapeseed oil, creating a concentrated linoleic acid delivery system that outperforms either oil alone.
Rosehip Seeds (Infused Botanical): The seeds contain the concentrated regenerative compounds:
Natural Trans-Retinoic Acid (0.01-0.1%): A bioavailable form of vitamin A that encourages cellular turnover, stimulates collagen production, and addresses fine lines—without the irritation of synthetic retinoids
Essential Fatty Acid Profile: 54% linoleic acid (omega-6) + 19% linolenic acid (omega-3) + trace oleic acid creates optimal balance for cellular regeneration
Carotenoid Complex: Beta-carotene, lycopene, beta-cryptoxanthin, rubixanthin, zeaxanthin, and lutein provide layered antioxidant protection and melanin modulation
Phenolic Compounds: Flavonoids and proanthocyanidins offer antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties
Vitamins & Minerals: A, B1, B2, K, plus trace minerals (Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Na)
MMP-1 Inhibition: Blocks the enzyme responsible for breaking down collagen structure
Grapeseed Oil (Lightweight Carrier):
75% Linoleic Acid: One of the highest linoleic acid concentrations available in carrier oils
Vitamin E Complex: Tocopherols, flavonoids, carotenoids, and phenolic acids provide antioxidant protection
Procyanidins: Including catechins, epicatechins, trans-resveratrol for anti-aging support
Non-Comedogenic: Rated 1 on comedogenic scale—won't clog pores
Rapid Absorption: Lightweight texture penetrates quickly without greasy residue
Sebum Regulation: Linoleic acid balances oil production in acne-prone skin
Why Grapeseed + Rosehip Seeds is Brilliant: Both oils are linoleic acid-dominant, creating a concentrated barrier-repair system. Linoleic acid deficiency is linked to acne, eczema, rosacea, and compromised barriers—this blend floods skin with what it needs most. The lightweight grapeseed base ensures rapid penetration of rosehip's concentrated actives without heaviness.
The Love U Difference: Traditional 48-hour low-heat crockpot infusion followed by four months of aging. This slow extraction method captures fat-soluble compounds (trans-retinoic acid, carotenoids, vitamin E) that water-based extractions miss. The natural sediment settling at the bottom proves whole-seed infusion—not isolated compounds or synthetic additives.

For Face:
After Toner (Optimal Sequence):
Cleanse with your preferred balm or cleanser
Apply toner to rebalance pH and prepare skin
Shake bottle gently to redistribute sediment
Apply 2-3 drops of Pure Rosehip Seed Oil to damp skin
Press gently into face, neck, and décolletage
Optional: Layer serum or moisturizer over top (this oil absorbs so quickly, layering works beautifully)
As Solo Treatment: For oily/combination skin, this may be your only moisture step. The linoleic acid content regulates sebum while providing essential hydration.
Application Tips:
Morning: 2 drops. Natural tretinoin levels are low enough for daytime use without photosensitivity. Absorbs in under 60 seconds—perfect under makeup.
Evening: 2-3 drops. Maximize cellular regeneration benefits overnight.
Acne-Prone: Use as spot treatment on active breakouts (antibacterial properties) or all-over to prevent future breakouts (sebum regulation).
Post-Procedure: Gentle enough for post-peel, post-microneedling, or post-laser use (wait 48 hours post-procedure).
Mixing for Enhanced Benefits:
Mix 1 drop with your water-based serum for enhanced penetration
Add 1 drop to foundation for dewy, non-greasy finish
Combine with other facial oils for custom fatty acid profiles
Why This Sequence Works: The lightweight, linoleic-rich formula penetrates in the first absorption layer, delivering concentrated actives immediately. Unlike heavier oils that sit on surface, this sinks in fast—making it ideal for layering or using alone.
BODY APPLICATION GUIDE
Scarring (Surgical, Injury, Acne, Stretch Marks): The gold standard use. Rosehip seed oil's reputation for scar reduction is well-documented:
Trans-retinoic acid encourages new cell formation
Essential fatty acids promote collagen synthesis
Carotenoids fade hyperpigmentation
Lightweight texture allows twice-daily application
Apply 2-3 drops directly to scarred areas twice daily. Massage gently in circular motions for 1-2 minutes to enhance penetration. Visible improvement typically within 8-12 weeks. Continue for 6+ months for mature scars.
Stretch Marks (Prevention & Treatment): During Pregnancy: Safe for pregnancy use (natural tretinoin levels are very low). Apply to belly, hips, breasts, and thighs during second and third trimesters to support skin elasticity.
Postpartum: Continue application to fade new stretch marks and improve skin texture. The omega-3 and omega-6 balance supports tissue repair.
Hands & Décolletage: These areas show aging rapidly due to thin skin and sun exposure. The carotenoid complex addresses photoaging while linoleic acid maintains barrier integrity. Apply 2-3 drops to backs of hands and décolletage after showering.
Body Acne (Back, Chest, Shoulders): The antibacterial phenolic compounds + sebum-regulating linoleic acid make this ideal for body breakouts. Apply to clean, damp skin in affected areas. Non-comedogenic formula won't cause additional congestion.
Post-Sun Exposure: Carotenoids help mitigate UV damage. Apply to sun-exposed areas within hours of exposure to support cellular repair. (Note: This is NOT a sunscreen—always use SPF for prevention.)
Dry Patches (Elbows, Knees, Heels): While this is a "dry oil" (absorbs quickly), it still provides essential hydration for rough areas. The linoleic acid supports barrier repair in chronically dry zones.
Cuticles: Massage 1 drop into each cuticle nightly. The vitamin-rich formula softens cuticles and strengthens nails.
