Active Ingredients
Unlocking the complete expression of our terroir
We produce Essential Rose Oil, Rose Hydrosol, and Full-Spectrum Rose Extract. By providing these three expressions, we can ensure that the full potential of our roses is realised in a format that best suits our partners' needs.
Full-Spectrum Rose Extract
We capture the dense antioxidants, anti-inflammatory flavonols, and biomimetic plant waxes that are lost in traditional steam distillation. Highcroft Hills Full-Spectrum Rose Extract preserves the integrity of anti-ageing and barrier-repair elements, delivering a high-potency concentrate optimised for cellular defence.
Benefits
- Captures the natural synergy of essential plant molecules for broad-sweeping care and protection.
- Potent but gentle, it soothes, calms and hydrates.
Essential Rose Oil
Using low-pressure steam to gently pass through each petal, 100% pure oil is released into the vapour. Highcroft Hills Essential Rose Oil delivers a deep, resonant multi-dimensional fragrance, capturing the unique purity of our terroir.
Benefits
- Pure, potent and full fragranced for a long-lasting effect.
- Rich, rare and luxurious for targeted applications.
Rose Hydrosol
Highcroft Hills Rose Hydrosol preserves the molecular integrity of phytomolecules, such as polyphenols and terpenoids, providing a nutrient-rich botanical water optimised for immediate surface-level brightening and anti-inflammatory relief.
Benefits
- Light, gentle and delicate, it helps to restore balance and tone.
- Highly versatile, for easy combination and blending.
Extraction methods
Extraction is the bridge between each rose and its final expression
We utilise advanced extraction methodologies to fully capture and preserve the complete bioactive spectrum, from the light, aromatic molecules that sink deep into the skin, to the rich, protective oils that strengthen the surface barrier.
Steam Distillation
Steam distillation gently extracts aroma while preserving bioactive compounds. It can be used for all three expressions: essential oil, hydrosol or extract — each reflecting the fresh, floral character of the rose.
Supercritical CO₂ Extraction
Solvent-free, Supercritical CO₂ extraction captures the full bioactive profile of the rose. Including compounds that cannot be carried in steam, retaining purity, aroma complexity and therapeutic benefit
Double Cone Vacuum Extraction
Ultra-gentle; by using reduced pressure and lower temperatures, this method allows extremely delicate bioactive compounds to be extracted. Double cone vacuum extraction can be customised to produce a highly concentrated premium extract or hydrosol best suited to product and partner needs.
