ordered this through nzpacific.com and they ship free worldwide (also available at eluxury.com but don't think they ship free)
i've only been using it for a few days so it might be too early to write a review..but i love it too much!!
use it for my face, under my eyes and on my legs..mix 3 drops with dr h's moor/lavendar body oil for my legs, not greasy at all and leaves my skin soft & hydrated
it's supposed to lighten scars but i guess it will take some time b4 i can tell
i use it to keep my under eye area hydrated, only 1 drop is enough for both eyes |

I've recently started to use rosehip oil too, all over the body and face.
I am so surprised that the oil is absorbed into my skin so quickly, and it does not cause any blemishes at all.
Without knowing better, I bought cheap stuff from a wholesaler once, and the oil that I got was white - but the unrefined cold pressed stuff is supposed to be a golden colour!! It makes a HUGE difference in terms of how it nourishes your skin.
I also add fat soluble vitamin E, d-alpha tocopherol, around 10% to my oils, and it really helps with lightening scars and pigmentation too. |

rosehip oil is amaising- i mixed it with emu oil when my skin was going through a super dry phase.
i was surprised that it didn't smell anything like a rose!! just plain oil!
i ordered from mezza uk but i will try NZpacific to compare the quality.
miranets- where can u get the vit E from? |

| Fatjack, you can order Trilogy from the UK viawww.xynergy.co.uk or Kosmea (which is another excellent organic rosehip oil supplier) viawww.beauty-republic.com |

Yes Jumping, in the meantime i tried them both, and they're pretty similar. At the end i reordered the one from Kosmea because i use/like several products from them, so it was easier.
I thought it's better to order them from the UK - i guess it's faster. and i don't know how is the customs for products from NZ...

i'm in vancouver and it took 2 wks for it to arrive in the mail from NZ..but canadapost is known for their slow service, so probably nothing to do with NZ post/custom
yes the oil is unrefined coldpressed and is a golden/orangy clear liquid; it just melts into my skin and love the fact that it doesn't have the greasiness of oil
can see that my undereye area is well hydrated during the day now =D i'm so happy with this product!! |

Hi Fatjack
I bought my vit e from a local supplier that sells things like essential oils, raw ingredients etc.. sort of like a DIY warehouse.
I think you can try a few places that sell raw ingredients, but make sure you get the oil-soluble d-alpha tocopherol, which is not the synthetic type.
If you are in the UK, try Aromantics.co.uk, they should have this type listed under 'vitamins'.

I have’t tried the Trilogy rosehip oil, but I have tried the Energising Face Lotion, which I rather liked as a basic day moisturiser.
I use quite a few products from those Australian/NZ rosehip lines and order them from this site in Australia - they carry Kosmea, Trilogy and Renew
http://www.naturalcity.com.au/viewproductbrand.aspx?id=223
They’ve got the best prices I’ve found online, although they are rather slow - usually takes 3 to 4 weeks to get to Hong Kong (am still waiting for an order I made on 18 april). I’ve found shipping ups the price by around 20 to 25% (to HK). Still, orders shipped outside Australia will be about 10% less (than prices shown) as they deduct Aus GST/sales tax. I’ve made quite a few orders from them and never had a problem, other than the slow turnaround. |

Hi, Milodomi, thank you for sharing you experience.
I am wondering if the rosehip oil you bought is a base oil can be mixed with essential oils to be a massage oil. And also would you please tell how is the purchase: is this online store good? where is it (I am in USA, I want to know if it can shipped here)? and does it carry other aromatic products?
Thank you very much. |

Thanks! Actually now that I think about it I think I should just stick to carrier oils for now, I don't want to mess with essential oils just yet.
Thanks for the link! I'm really looking at the dry skin sampler pack:
One ounce each of Avocado and Macadamia, Pumpkin Seed and Sweet Almond, with 5 mls each of Camellia, Kukui, and Squalane.
Counting shipping it's still under 30$.

I have been a devotee of Organic rosehip oil (kosema) for about a year now. It helps my dry skin get through winter and has faded by scar a bit.. I was very sceptical and htough it would break me out- but I was pleasantly surprised. I now recommend it to everyone and I also put a few drops in my bath and of mt niece when I baby sit her (she's 2) and it leaves her sensitive baby skin so soft and even she loves it..
I can't stop raving about it. I now make hampers for all my friends when they have a baby and always include this. |

I went to naturalcity site and found two rosehip oil products. are they the same? which one should I get? rose hip certified organic or pure organic?
http://www.naturalcity.com.au/viewproductbrand.aspx?id=223
I am in US, is it safe to order from AU? |

Fishzebby - I see what you mean .. strange. I’m wondering whether it’s the same product but different sizes, 20ml vs 45 ml  perhaps new packaging/labelling and the site hasn’t updated the info properly? I guess you’d have to email them
Actually if you’re in the US and want rosehip oil only, it may be cheaper/quicker to buy from a US site. I sometimes get rosehip oil from skinactives or mountainrose herb sites in the US.. I’m sure there’s other places too.
But if you want to try products (other than rosehip oil) from Trilogy/Kosmea/Renew, naturalcity does have good prices (despite Aus dollar being very strong at the moment). I also like the Emu Spirit emu oil they sell.. just ordered another litre in fact |

| I have bought mine at Lovelula.com. I found out it was a bit more expensive than the nzpacific.com website, but I will have it shipped from the UK, and I love lovelula's service (and samples) |
