Rose Benefits For Skin

WHY THE TIME-HONORED ROSE IS NATURE’S PERFECT SKINCARE INGREDIENT

The delicate Rose. The Rose brings to mind the aromas of sensuality, romance and beauty. Cleopatra bathed in Roses, Shakespeare wrote about Roses, Edith Piaf sang about them. One of the most sought after scent for centuries, this tantalizing flower still remains exotic and with much allure. With several great properties that are wonderful for your skin as well as for the mind, Rose has been incorporated in skincare, medicines and therapeutic treatments by many ancient cultures and for good reason.

 

The oil from the steam distillation of Rose petals, the pressed oil extracted from the Rosehip seeds and the hydrosol left from the steam distillation of pure fresh Rose petals all carry precious benefits. Abundant in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, it is a rich source of antioxidants and essential fatty acids (EFAs) both Omega-3 and Omega-6, which rejuvenates the skin in numerous ways. The fruit of the Rose hip is an excellent source of Trans-retinoic acid (which is an active form of Vitamin A) as well as Vitamin C.

 

Requiring about 60,000 Rose blossoms to yield 1 ounce of Rose essential oil, it makes it one of the most expensive essential oils out there. Fortunately, only a few drops of the oil is all that is needed to reap the benefits, which is why it was important to share why and how it can transform your beauty routine.

 

HEALS ACNE:

 

Rose hydrosol helps achieve a clear and balanced complexion. It has antibacterial properties and soothes acne prone skin while helping balance the skin’s pH. In addition, it is a natural astringent and aids in tightening pores without drying the skin.

 

ANTI-AGING:

 

The Rose has been lauded for its remarkable anti-aging and skin rejuvenating properties. It works to minimize wrinkles, lighten age spots and keep skin firm. Rose Hip Seed Oil increases the skin’s elasticity by preventing the breakdown of collagen and thus preventing the progression of new wrinkles. By increasing circulation, it is responsible in attaining a radiant and glowing skin tone.

 

 

MOISTURIZING:

 

Hydrating and moisturizing, both Rose oil and hydrosol can help leave the skin soft and smooth. The EFA’s found in Rose enhances the ability of the outermost dermal layer to be able to perform better as a barrier to bacteria, irritants and allergens. As a result it reduces the water loss in the skin, moisturizes, hydrates and protects. For an all over skin softening and divine experience, you can include one to two cups of Rose Hydrosol to the bath and it will leave your skin hydrated and smelling great.

 

SCAR TREATMENT AND HYPERPIGMENTATION:

The UV rays of the sun damage skin and cause photo-aging which can result in spots, wrinkles decreased collagen or discoloration. The combination of properties in the Rose Hip Seed seems to combat the damage, resulting in improvement of skin tone, texture and pigmentation.
