In 2013 Miranda Kerr told the world she uses the product on her skin every night before going to bed, and Goop’s Gwyneth Paltrow is also a fan.

A source told US Weekly that Kate Middleton loves rosehip, and she uses it “in her daily skincare regiment,” and she loves the “effect it has on her skin.”

It isn’t just the star power behind this solution that speaks volumes. These women are also famous for their decision to age gracefully without cosmetic intervention, and they look undeniably youthful and fresh.
