The Rosehip is a shrub that belongs to the rosaceae family, subfamily rosidea and pink genus. The scientific name is Rosa Eglanteria or Rosa Rubiginosa.
It grows wildly in poor flat soils and low-rise mountains in the foothills of the southern Region of the Andes Mountains, Chile and Argentina.
It can exceed 2 meters in height, its stems are thin, flexible and curved and covered with violet spines.
The plant develops oval-shaped reddish fruits of up to 2 cm filled with seeds, fleshy, crowned with cuts and reddish color called achenes.
Achenes are very rich in ascorbic acid, vitamin A, riboflavin, nicotinic acid, malic and citrus, sugars, etc. These fruits have inside them many seeds (15-20) from which a yellow oil with reddish tones is extracted.
It is one of the products that has aroused the most interest in the areas of cosmetics and dermatology.
