Rose Hip Oil: A Soothing Product for Eczema
Eczema is a form of dermatitis that is commonly characterized by itching, dryness, redness and swelling. If eczema is severe or left untreated it can lead to crusting, blistering and eventually bleeding. This is why it is important that you treat this type of rash in an adequate and timely fashion.

Rose hip oil is one of the best moisturizers you can try. This natural oil is extracted from the rose hips of the Rosa moschata bush. It absorbs very quickly and moisturizes almost instantly.
Rose hip oil also contains high levels of Vitamin A, Vitamin C and essential fatty acids. It doesn’t produce allergic reactions because it has a pH of 5.1 which makes it highly compatible with human skin.
The Vitamin A, present in rose hip oil, is vital for healthy skin. It helps delay photoaging and helps promote cell regeneration and the production of collagen and elastin levels. Vitamin C, however, is considered a great antioxidant that helps repair damaged skin.
Essential fatty acids are vital to the production of prostaglandins. These components are hormone-like substances that help regulate inflammation, reduce pain and eliminate swelling. A lack of these fatty acids in your diet can actually trigger eczema.
