About
Juice of rosehip — the fruit of wild rose. One of the richest plant sources of vitamin C, widely valued for antioxidant and skin-conditioning effects.
Rosa canina (dog rose) fruit juice is a well-regarded cosmetic botanical, prized for exceptionally high vitamin C content (often 400-1000 mg per 100 g fresh fruit), along with carotenoids (lycopene, beta-carotene), flavonoids and tocopherols. In cosmetics it is used for skin conditioning and antioxidant support. CosIng lists it for skin conditioning; rosehip oil has a better-characterized CIR-type dataset, while the juice rides on long cosmetic and dietary use. Safety is considered high at typical cosmetic levels. The only quality-control note is that the intact rosehip contains fine hairs that can irritate if not removed in processing; cosmetic-grade juice is properly clarified.
