Rosehip Co2 Total from Bulgaria is a highly concentrated extract derived from the entire rosehip berry (hip), meticulously encompassing nutrient-rich pulp and seeds. This exceptional extract is obtained through advanced extraction techniques that employ high pressure and low temperatures. This method preserves the integrity of the bioactive compounds within the rosehip berries, resulting in a remarkably pure and potent extract, ideal for various skincare formulations.
One of the standout features of Rosehip Co2 Total is its impressive shelf life, which lasts up to 2 years. This longevity significantly surpasses traditionally cold-pressed rosehip oil from seeds, primarily due to its sophisticated extraction process, which minimizes oxidation and degradation.
The olfactory profile of the Rosehip Co2 Total extract is equally enticing. Its delightfully sweet and fruity aroma enriches the sensory experience of skincare routines and contributes therapeutic benefits. This extract is celebrated for its remarkable anti-aging and moisturizing properties, making it a sought-after ingredient for an extensive array of skin care products, from serums to creams.
Given its ultra-concentrated nature, only a minimal amount—typically up to 2%—of Rosehip Co2 Total is needed in formulations, rendering it a cost-effective solution for skincare creators. Its benefits extend to enhancing skin hydration, combating dryness, and providing robust anti-aging effects, making it highly recommended for use in a variety of blends targeting skin moisture and rejuvenation.
However, due to its high concentration, a light and fast-absorbing carrier oil is suggested for proper dilution. This carrier oil will help to ensure that the skin adequately absorbs the extract without leaving any greasy or oily residue. The Rosehip Co2 Total extract is an exceptional ingredient that can help transform any skincare formulation into a powerful anti-aging and moisturizing blend. Our
Prickly Pear or
Kalahari Melon are both excellent choices with this extract.
