Our refined rosehip seed oil comes from Chile, a country with an ideal and unique climate for the growth of wild rosehips. The region is nestled between the Andes, Antarctica and the Pacific Ocean, which provide natural protection. The succession of cool nights and sunny days during the ripening phase ensures rose hips of the highest quality.

The rose hips of various wild roses, especially the dog rose (Rosa canina), are harvested in autumn when the fruits are fully ripe and have a bright red or orange color. The seeds are separated from the pulp using a mechanical process in which the rose hips are cut open and the seeds removed. After cleaning and drying, the seeds are mechanically cold-pressed and the crude oil obtained is then refined according to European standards. It then undergoes a multi-stage filtration process in which natural particles are removed. In the final step, our refined rosehip seed oil is stabilized by the addition of tocopherol (vitamin E) and subjected to a final quality test in our DIN ISO 17025 accredited laboratory.
