Josh Rosebrook Active Infusion Oil
by Josh Rosebrook · skin_care
Editor's Take
One of the rare face oils worth calling a serum: jojoba cushions Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate and Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate without letting the botanicals become theater.
Four-pillar formula scores
- Performance: 8.8 / 10
- Innovative Ingredients: 8.2 / 10
- Clean Standards: 10.0 / 10
- Formula Sustainability: 9.9 / 10
The Verdict
This goes well beyond basic glow oil, with a stable retinoid and oil-soluble vitamin C doing credible brightening and renewal work. Dimethyl Isosorbide improves active delivery, while the jojoba, rosehip, and hemp oils keep the base replenishing rather than merely greasy. The ingredient choices are exceptionally clean and sustainability-minded, though the advanced actives prevent COSMOS certification. A standout treatment oil for shoppers who want clinical-serum ambition in a botanical base.
