Before you use it

Contains naturally occurring trans-retinoic acid at very low concentrations — not a retinoid substitute, but contributes to its skin-evening reputation. Use PM — light oxidation can cause photosensitivity.

On the label

Listed as "Rosa canina seed oil" or "Rosa rubiginosa seed oil". Cold-pressed, unrefined versions retain more active constituents. A pale to golden color is correct — very dark or off-smelling oil may be oxidised.
