Rio Rosa Mosqueta Oil – Product Review On Rosacea Skin

 Rio Rosa Mosqueta oil - Product Review On Rosacea Skin
A short while ago I received a sachet of amazing day and night cream from RioRosa.Co.uk I adored the cream as my skin felt it was receiving a sumptuous bath in skin food, so I I took a look around their site and discovered they also did a pure 100% rosehip oil. I had read amazing reviews of this, a little on how it had supported rosacea skin but I was keen to try this out for myself. As some of you may have read in my rosacea post here, my skin was very, very red and sore and so I took this oil through its paces. I gave it a 2 week trial and I am amazed at the difference in only two weeks.
 

Prior to using it I had large spots over the top of the rosacea and my skin was incredibly dry. I went to a natural skincare practitioner a little while back and had three sessions with her, she told me my skin was so dry it was like a sponge, it even absorbed cleansing milk so I know I needed help.
 

Application

 
Applying Rio Rosa Mosqueta’s rosehip oil was very easy. It came in a pump action bottle and the amount that came out was perfect, no wastage and I generally needed 2 pumps of the spray for my face. I applied it in the morning and evening and massaged it into my skin as this seemed to help my skin a lot. I even massaged it into the spotty area because it appears my spots were incredibly dry too. There was no overpowering scent; no smell of roses, so very neutral and feels perfect for sensitive skin. Unlike some oils I have used in the past this absorbed into my skin rather rapidly which was great for morning moisturising especially when I was going out and needed to apply my make-up over the top. Other oils I had to wait for some time before being able to do this.
 
Over a 2 week period my skin felt a lot softer, not as dry and the spots calmed down considerably. Also the red rosacea calmed down a lot. Even my housemate commented on the difference so I can only imagine what the benefits will be in another 2 weeks time. 

 

Rosacea

 
As rosacea can feel like sunburn I do wonder if this is why it works so well. Rosehip oil is noted to be helpful for sunburnt skin also. It certainly encouraged my skin to calm down.
 
In Just 2 Weeks

The above photos may not look like a big change to anyone who has not had rosacea or acne but it made a tremendous difference to my self confidence. I also did not need to apply nearly as much make-up when I went out.
 
Rio Rosa Mosqueta say that the results are apparent within a month. I am glad to see it took just 2 weeks to see a change. 
 
Please be advised that rosehip oil is not recommended for active acne or open eczema, unhealed or open wounds or very oily skin.
 
Rio Rosa say use this beauty oil to: 
 
Reduce the visibility of scars
Fade stretch marks
Smooth away fine lines and crow’s feet
Reduce the signs of ageing
Treat sun damage and dry skin
Keep your skin supple, soft & hydrated

Is It Expensive?

 
This surprised me a lot. I have used a lot of expensive moisturisers over the years and all tend to be £20-£45 This only costs £10.49 for a 20ml bottle and a little goes a long way. 
 
 

Overall Verdict

 
Extremely nourishing on my dry rosacea skin. Very calming and has reduced the redness. Fantastic for healing the skin where the acne was which led to a reduction in acne. No unpleasant scent. I cannot think of anything negative to say as it has helped my skin tremendously. I love the price and feel very encouraged by the countless on-line reviews of this product. I understand now.

    Great review! You can really see the difference in the redness of your cheek. I have a bit of redness on my cheeks, so maybe I'll give this a try! x

    An easy dietary controls can helps treating rosacea. Also try to avoid common rosacea triggers, such as chocolate, alcohol, cold weather, face scrubs, exercise, fragrances and hot baths. Drink plenty of water, which will helps skin well hydrated and healthy. Metronidazole one the best cream, useful in fighting bacteria in your body to treat rosacea. http://www.canadiandrugsaver.com/acne/metrogel_191.html

    Thank you for posting this. I am just staring out with rosehip oil but have been hesitant to use it on my entire face. What a great improvement!

    Oh wonderful Amy, I love this oil. I don't tend to put it on my face if acne appears at certain times of month but when my skin is relatively spot free its so soothing and caring. I hope it continues to help you.
