5 Natural Ways To Get Rid Of Acne Scars Using Rosehip Oil

Nowadays acne is one of the most common skin problems. The common reasons for developing acne breakouts can be hormonal changes, oily skin, stress, and an unhealthy diet. But this frustrating acne and scars that it leaves behind, can be treated easily with the help of rosehip oil. Rosehip oil contains antioxidants like vitamin A, vitamin C and essential fatty acids(omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids) which are very effective in treating acne and scars. It provides necessary nutrition to your skin which makes it healthy and naturally glowing. Hence, in this post, I will be sharing some of the best ways that you can use rosehip oil for acne and scars.

# Rosehip Oil Face Serum For Acne And Scars

Ingredients

1 tablespoon rosehip oil
5 drops tea tree essential oil
3 drops rose essential oil

Method

Using a funnel, pour rosehip oil into the dark-colored dropper bottle. Then carefully add essentials oils into it. Shake well to mix everything well. Apply 3-4 drops to your cleansed face daily, twice. Keep the bottle away from the direct light.

# Rosehip Oil Night Cream For Acne & Scars

Ingredients

1/3 cup shea butter
1 tablespoon rosehip oil
10 drops tea tree essential oil
7 drops frankincense essential oil
5 drops lemon essential oil

Method

- Melt the shea butter using a double boiler system. When the butter has melted, add rosehip oil and mix everything in the bowl. Let this mixture cool until its room temperature.

- Now, add all essential oils in a bowl and whip the mixture on high speed until it gets fluffy and creamy. It will take 5-10 minutes or more to get fully incorporated.

- Store it in an airtight glass container and keep it away from direct light. You can keep the cream up to 4-5 months.

- Apply this cream on the cleansed face every night and always apply sunscreen before going out in the sun.

# Oil Cleansing With Rosehip Oil For Acne & Scars

Ingredients

1 part rosehip oil
1 part hemp seed oil

Method

- First, if you’re wearing waterproof mascara, eyeliner or heavy foundation, you’ll have to remove all of your makeup with makeup removing wipes before oil cleansing.

- Once heavy makeup is removed, start cleansing your skin by applying the oil blend directly to your face (approximately 1 teaspoon), massaging the oil onto the surface of your skin. Be sure to focus on the areas where makeup and sweat linger most, such as your forehead and nose.

- Massage the oil for at least 3-5 minutes to ensure the oil has penetrated your skin. The longer you leave the oil on your skin, the deeper your pores will be cleansed. I would recommend keeping the oil blend on the skin for at least 5-10 minutes to experience maximum cleansing benefits.

- After massaging, wring a microfiber washcloth in warm water and dab your face with it. Repeat the dabbing twice more so that the oil treatment can penetrate deep. That’s it! Oil cleanse your face at least once a day in the night to clear your acne forever.

- If you feel any dryness after the oil cleansing then apply the serum or cream written in 1 and 2 recipes. Or, simply apply a few drops rosehip oil.

- Dry and oily skin may benefit from oil cleansing regularly each night, while sensitive skin may only need to be cleaned once every few days.
