Alpine Silk Certified Organic Rosehip Oil Reviews

I was really excited to trial this, having mainly only used Trilogy Rosehip Oil in the past.

I haven't used rosehip oil in a long time as I have battled adult acne and have been more focused on night serums that contain retinol and salicylic acid to control my acne (currently using Dermalogica Age Bright Clearing Serum).

This product felt fine when it went on, but I could not get past the horrible smell. Most rosehip oils smell floral, but this one smells almost meaty and being someone who doesn't eat meat, the smell made me gag. It smells like beef bone broth! My skin felt moisturised in the morning when I woke up but the smell was still there, and my pillow smelled like it as well.

A real shame - I wanted to like this product but just couldn't get past the smell. I will be giving it to a friend (if they can handle the smell!) as I can't bring myself to use it again.

The Alpine Silk face mask however is much better!

So I don't know whether it's this product or not but my skin did not like having this on it, I have quite oily skin as it is so it irritated my skin by having this oil on it. I'm sure it would suit those with dry skin but I wasn't a fan, it felt heavy on the face and I didn't particularly like the smell of it. Overall I wouldn't use this product again but like that its paraben free and perhaps it would suit other people better.

Firstly, this is the first facial oil i have used that isnt a cleanser. This oil is silky smooth, immediate results, easy to apply and isnt too strong in scent. I love rose scent as it makes you feel calm, relaxed and snug but too much can make your eyes squint and force you to use less of a product.

I use this every night after cleansing and eye cream but before my facial mist to lock in all my skin care. I use 1-2 drops, warm in my finger tips and apply from forehead down to my chest.

The packaging is great! Sturdy and easy to use. With oily products you dont want to use too much so packaging that ensures you use the correct amount with ease just made this product that much better, so 5 kisses for appropriate packaging.

The texture and feel is as is, its oily, but a silky feel, dosent linger on the skin and soaks in beautifully. The results i got were immediate, my skin was smooth, soft and supple skin on my face, neck and chest and i found my skin would glow the next morning from being so nourished and hydrated. I have not yet found a change in my skin tone or with any lines i have. As fine lines and skin tone are a minimal concern for me i highly reccomend this product! This is a great first oil product to try if your interested but not sure. You're not going to break the bank as it isnt a high price point product, and if you dont like it for the face you can use on the body as well.

Love my new addition to my skin care routine!

Got to trial this product thanks to BR. Lovely pink rose coloured packaging with a rose on it. The product itself is in a semi frosted see through bottle, white lid dropper. The oil is like a pale yellow. The dropper has the rounded tip so gives a super precise amount of product. Has a very faint rose scent to me but mostly just smells like an oil. Not overpowering at all.

As per directions, I used this on face and neck with the recommended 2-3 drops. Absorbs nicely into the skin. I actually prefer to use this as an all over body oil rather than a face oil. Very good for hydrating and moisturising. I didn't notice a reduction in my skin tone or fine lines. However that may be because I haven't yet used it long enough.

I don't know how much this costs though I imagine it would be about $20 at a guess. (I only mention price as price point is a part of my decision making when purchasing a product) As it stands, I don't find anything outstanding about this oil, I prefer another one over this. I will finish this up but I will not be repurchasing.

I was lucky enough to be selected to trial this and the mask. It comes in a pale pink packaging with a rose on it, which is nice. It has the list of ingredients and all of them are natural oils. It comes in a pipette dropper, which feels quite flimsy but does the job. The oil itself has been great for my skin! It's been quite dry this year and I've been using the oil twice a day as suggested and within a week, my skin feels more hydrated and radiant! It does leave a bit of a greasy feel so I use four drops at night and only 2 in the morning. My skin is scarred from previous breakouts but I feel the oil has helped improve my texture already. I will keep on using it and hopefully my skin continues to improve.

I put my hand up to trail this for my acne scarring and I was lucky to be chosen, which was so exciting! It’s made right here in New Zealand and is certified organic by Bio Gro, which is awesome. I love the packaging, it’s so pretty. It’s a pink box with a 3D like rose. The 30ml glass bottle is frosted which gives it a luxury finish to it. The oil itself is yellow in colour.

I applied 3 drops onto my face during my morning and evening skincare routine. The oil felt thicker than any other oils I’ve used before, but it absorbed into my skin very quickly. It was also non-greasy. I usually dislike the strong scent of rosehip, but this one wasn’t overpowering at all. It was tolerable, which I liked. I’ve only used it for just over a week now, so I haven’t seen any results with the appearance of my acne scarring, but my skin felt very moisturised and my winter dry skin disappeared.

Overall, I think this is a great oil to keep the skin hydrated, especially over winter. As for the scarring, a trial of one week wasn’t enough, so I will need to use it for few more weeks to see the results.

I was super excited to try this product as I suffer from dry patches on my cheeks and forehead area. The first thing I noticed was the smell. It resembles quite literally cooking oil. It states to use morning and night but after a coupoe of times doing both I had to ditch the morning application so I didn't have to go to work smelling of a deep fryer. My skin remained greasy looking for quite some time after application but it did make my skin feel soft and reduced the dry patches. I would say it works but I just can't get past the smell so will not continue to use frequently

The packaging to me looks old fashioned, like something you would find in the 50’s - and I love it! The oil comes in quite a big bottle compared to some other oils I have purchased which is a win. I mix a few drops into both my moisturiser and night cream and I noticed that the creams became thicker feeling and my skin feels super hydrated. I love how it is made from organic oils and it makes me feel like I’m really treating my skin to something good. My skin looks firmer, more even, and healthier already

I have used a few reship oils they have been too harsh for my sensitive skin, so was a bit weary when trying this one. To my surprise this one wasn't! I am prone to eczema around my nose and have found sometimes some rosehip oils can make this sting when applied, this brand didn't do that for me! I applied at night after a shower and it quickly absorbed into my skin and didn't leave it feeling overly greasy, unlike some other brands. It didn't make me breakout at all like some oils can. In the morning my face felt hydrated and skin looked even in tone and texture. after a few days of using this i noticed when applying my makeup, my foundation seemed to blend and go on more even without caking into any dry patches. I am overall really impressed and have now added it to my daily routine.
