What does Dr. Lucy’s proprietary face oils with Rosehip seed oil, the Duchess of Cambridge, Gwyneth Paltrow, Victoria Beckham and model Miranda Kerr all have in common? Reportedly, they use rosehip seed oil to keep their skin smooth and blemish-free.- Dr. Axe DNM DC CNS

CELL REGENERATION
Specifically, rose hip seed oil aids in regeneration, providing anti-aging benefits. It is particularly high in vitamin C, making it one of the richest plant sources for the skin. This is another reason why rosehip seed oil is a great choice. Says Dr. Axe

SKIN AGING REVERSED
Because it is high in free-radical fighting antioxidants, rosehip seed oil can be used to reverse skin aging. Fighting environmental pollutants and protecting the skin from the suns damaging affects.

SKIN TEXTURE IMPROVED
As a natural source of the antioxidant lycopene, rosehip seed oil improves the texture of skin and protects against premature aging.

It contains beta-carotene to reduce the appearance of skin aging by eliminating free-radical damage.

VITAMIN C
*Rosehip seed oil is also high in vitamin C, and is a natural skin anti-aging agent. Vitamin C is needed to produce collagen, a naturally occurring protein found in the body that supports elasticity and flexibility of the skin.

Vitamin C increases the synthesis of collagen. In other words, it’s the fuel needed to start the collagen-synthesis engine. Vitamin C is responsible for inducing these reactions.

VITAMIN A
Rosehip seed oil also contains vitamin A, which is essential for healthy skin and reduces fine lines and wrinkles.

HELPS WITH SUN DAMAGE
One reason why skin wrinkles and marks appear is because of over-exposure to the sun – it is one of the top 10 causes of premature aging of your face. The sun’s UV rays may also cause spots on the face that result in wrinkles or discoloration. The antioxidants in rosehip seed oil seem to repair damages while the essential fatty acid content improves skin tone, pigmentation and texture.

Plus! being in the sun too long can also damage collagen production. Collagen levels drop as you age. But the vitamin C content in rosehip seed oil can help restore collagen production to normal. - Healthy and Natural World, Jenny Hills, Medical Writer and Researcher

There's only so much you can do to slow the natural decline of collagen in your skin. Let's talk about what can help or harm this very important protein!

"The collagen in the skin is affected by age in various ways. The skin becomes thinner and drier, and develops sags and wrinkles due to the collagen and elastin becoming disconnected." Says, Dr. Jeffrey Spiegel, M.D. In his article: What is collagen and what happens to it when we age?

Dr. Spiegel also states:
1. Growth of new cells slow down dramatically.
2. Dull colored skin can occur as the dead cells do not shed as quickly.
3. Aging skin is more susceptible to the development of brown spots on the face and body.
4. Intrinsic aging (hereditary) Extrinsic aging (caused by tobacco and environmental factors).
5. Smoking-contains chemicals that stimulate collagen-destroying enzymes and slows down the cells which produce collagen by 40%.

Here Are a Few Answers To Some Very Important Collagen Questions...

Does Rubbing Your Face Produce Collagen?

Yes, a simple massage can both strengthen muscle memory and spur collagen production. Gently massaging your facial muscles daily can also boost blood circulation, making the skin look refreshed and more youthful.

Does Coffee Affect Collagen?

Caffeine suppresses collagen production by preventing cell growth and interfering with the development of cartilage. In turn, this affects the ability to make new collagen and the genes involved in maturing cartilage cells. One study found that caffeine reduces collagen synthesis in human skin.

What Causes Rapid Collagen Loss?

The collagen tissues support the formation of bones, tendons and cartilage that form depending on the level of mineralization. However, an individual can lose collagen components in the body due to exposure to ultraviolet light, tobacco, excessive intake of sugar, and aging.
