Yes, you’re right Cheryl! Sorry about that – it’s now been fixed 🙂
I don’t have rose oil should i skip
Hetal, you could skip the rosehip oil, yes, but just know that it plays a pretty big part in preventing wrinkles.
when I don’t have rose oil I use frankincense and geranium oil along with my rose hip oil. lavender added also works well with geranium and frankincense
That sounds like a great substitution Nancy!!
Can I added it on my hair cream
Hi Shola,
I wouldn’t recommend using this on your hair.
STEP #2.
from where can I get rose oil
You should be able to easily find rose oil at ant health food store, drug store, or wherever you purchase your essential oils. Additionally, you can also find it online, such as on Amazon 🙂
You can get certified pure therapeutic grade Rose oil here. It has been mixed with coconut oil so it is affordable. Get your wholesale membership because it is cheaper that way. Kathy
So is rosehip oil or rose oil the strongest and most effective? Thankyou
Both oils are excellent in preventing wrinkles and fine lines, although just pure rose oil IS the most effective. Unfortunately, it’s very expensive, so most people opt for rosehip oil.
I have vitamin E oil, but not capsules…can you tell me what the conversion would be?
It can be hard to measure exactly since the amount of vitamin E oil in a capsule is very small, but 5 capsules would be about 1/2 teaspoon!
Where can I find rose essential oil?
Hi Gayle,
I purchase all of my essential oils from Amazon. Here’s the rose essential oil I use:
https://www.amazon.com/Rose-Essential-Oil-Natural-Therapeutic/dp/B07H8TRBJ8/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=rose%2Bessential%2Boil&qid=1578059803&sr=8-4&th=1&tag=st101-20
It’s very well priced, has a great scent, and leaves skin super soft!
Should this be refrigerated?
Hi Deborah,
No, do not refrigerate the serum as it is made entirely out of oils, so there is no chance of spoilage. Do keep it away from sunlight though!
Can you use lemon grass in place of rose for scent
Hi Amy,
Technically, you could use lemongrass essential oil instead of rosehip oil for the scent, but the reason that rosehip oil is in this recipe, is because it’s actually an amazing oil that prevents and combats wrinkles. It’s not there for scent, but rather because it serves as an anti-aging ingredient. Of course if that’s all you have, go ahead and replace it – you still have the vitamin E, castor oil, and coconut oil, which are all great 🙂
Thanks so much and I’m going to use it! I’ll make it tomorrow!
Thanks Ellie! Let us know how it works out for you or if you have any questions 🙂
