Rosehip Plus Day Cream & Night Cream Review.

Rosehip Plus (The Rosehip Specialists) are a fantastic skincare brand that are an Australian owned family business who pride themselves on producing high quality Rosehip Oil products. 

Today I'm reviewing the beautiful Rosehip Plus Certified Organic Hydrating Day Cream* and the Rosehip Plus Certified Organic Nourishing Night Cream*! 

Both of these moisturisers are absolutely gorgeous. I'll start of with the Day Cream! 

Hydrating Day Cream:

This 95% organic moisturiser feels so fresh when applied and really wakes my skin up in the mornings! A little bit goes a long way with this and it applies so smoothly. It has a beautiful subtle floral and citrus aroma making it perfect for those mornings when you need a little extra help waking up! After using this my skin is always left feeling healthy, hydrated and protected. 

Just some of the beautiful ingredients in this cream include: Rosehip Oil, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Avocado Oil, Sunflower Seed Oil and more! All of these aim to prevent and treat dry skin, brighten dry, dull skin and minimise the visible signs of ageing. This is perfect for those wanting a natural moisturiser with a lot of Rosehip Oil in it!

Nourishing Night Cream:

This night cream is also 95% organic and is absolutely beautiful. 

It has a pump which pumps out the perfect amount of product for me and this as well goes a long way. 

I love using this either by itself or with the Rosehip Plus Rosehip Oil added to it. It locks in moisture, nourishes my skin and in the morning I wake up to soft, renewed skin every time. 

This cream has a slightly different aroma but I would still say it has a subtle floral/citrus scent. 

As this is an ultra hydrating night cream it has very nourishing ingredients in it such as Olive Leaf Extract, Cocoa Butter, Rosehip Oil, Coconut Oil, Macadamia Oil and more! These ingredients aim to keep the skin hydrated and soft, improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and promote skin elasticity. This can definitely be used on young skin as well as mature skin.

Both of these creams are full of beautiful ingredients that always leave my skin looking healthy and feeling super soft and supple, I highly recommend these to all my fellow Rosehip lovers! 

Main Ingredients (Day Cream): Aloe Vera, Chamomile Extract, Rosehip Oil, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Avocado Oil, Macadamia Oil, Squalene, Honeysuckle Extract & more!

Main Ingredients (Night Cream): Aloe Vera, Olive Leaf Extract, Cocoa Butter, Rosehip Oil, Coconut Oil, Macadamia Oil, Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil, Honeysuckle Extract & more! 

Best Used: I love using the day cream by itself in the mornings to help hydrate and awaken my skin. 

The night cream is perfect at night as an ultra hydrating, enriched moisturiser to lock in moisture and repair skin. I love adding three drops of the Rosehip Oil to this too!

Suitable For: All skin types, however I always recommend doing a patch test first if you have sensitive skin.

Pros: Australian Certified Organic, Cruelty Free, no parabens, no sulphates, no artificial colours, no synthetic fragrances, no preservatives, only natural ingredients. 

Cons: None. 

Price/Purchase From: Day Cream: Around $19.95 for 75ml.

Night Cream: Around $29.95 for 50ml.
