The Trilogy one is super expensive for no reason. It has a slight chip fat smell, not very strong.

It is pricey! I checked the one from naturally thinking that you recommended, and the shipping alone is $40. I’ll check local health food stores and see if they have something cheaper.

I calculated shipping of 100ml rosehip oil to MA (picked a random state) and it’s £7.33.. same if you add 100ml of witch hazel.

The only reason I suggest it is because I know the quality is good.

My mistake Shipping is actually $12 to my state.

If it’s pigmentation, it should do.

It won’t cause acne. In fact it will probably help it. My sister has active acne and she’s been using it and her face is looking much better.

You can either use it at night and rub a few drops on your face directly. I use it in the morning before moisturising. I first spritz my face with witch hazel (natural astringent) to tone. Then I spray some witch hazel on a cotton pad to dampen it. Drop a drop of rosehip on this and apply to my face. Repeat with a second drop if I need more. The witch hazel stops it from being too oily and by the time you have moisturised, you shouldn’t feel/look any oilier than if you didn’t use it.

hi, stoppit,
I have sensitive skin can i use rosehip oil?

It will even skin tone and face blemishes and discolouration. I’ve been using it since March and two people I met up with after not seeing them for ages both commented on how good my skin was looking. I also recommended it to a GS member who had chloasma during pregnancy and it worked for her too.

I buy this one: http://www.naturallythinking.com/products/Rosehip-Carrier-Oil---Special-Offer-Cold-Pressed.html

I also bought glass bottles with dropper lids, which I transfer it into. Makes it easier to use.

Now I have to try this one. I am using C+E ferulic serum, combined with phyto gel serum. Works great. But it cost a whole lot more than your recommendation. So if it does everything you are mentioning, then there is no excuse for not trying this one.

stoppit,

Does your RHO smell a bit like mustard seed oil/ sarson ka tayl? I bought the Trilogy RHO from amazon, apparently they are based out of New Zealand…just wanted to confirm about the smell.

I’m using the trilogy rho and didn’t find it smell like that.

I don’t know abt Uk or us but here in Australia it’s around 15 aud for 20ml
Trilogy one is the best I used compared to other brands

Two people I have given it to have sensitive skin and neither has found it a problem. Always test patch it in a small area for a few days first. But I think you will be fine.

I would recommend this site

http://www.iherb.com/

I haven’t ordered rho from them but had order some other facial oils and dead sea salt from them.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder’s Idealist even skintone illuminator?

What about pigmentation of under arms .. do you think RHO can fix that too?

Btw - is it available in pakistan?

[Sajalina]

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder’s Idealist even skintone illuminator?

Uk girls, please tell me which shipping method to use???
Is Royal Mail not so reliable? Have read bad reviews about it lately.

Royal Mail (International Airmail Packets)$21.98Parcelforce Worldwide (Delivery USA & Canada)$38.10

[stoppit]

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder’s Idealist even skintone illuminator?

I’ve never had a problem sending packages to USA, Europe or even Malaysia with Royal Mail. The issue is with Pakistan because once it gets in the hands of the local postal service, things tend to disappear. You can email these guys and ask if they have any issues with RM international deliveries to your country.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder’s Idealist even skintone illuminator?

thank you stoppit for this wonderful recommendation !!! I have pigmentation starting from my cheeks right down to my neck … looks like i have a beard !!!

am gonna try and see if its available in Bahrain or else my sister is coming down from the Uk this month , gonna ask her to get it.

Should 250 ml suffice for a couple of months ??

[stoppit]

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder’s Idealist even skintone illuminator?

250ml sounds fine. Depends how much you use it really. I again would recommend a dropper bottle otherwise you easily end up using more than you need.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder’s Idealist even skintone illuminator?

So when do you start seeing results or even slight difference? It is immediate or you have to give it weeks/months?
