Rose water skin benefits

Date Posted:22 August 2022 

Rose water is one of the most versatile ingredients in your kitchen. It's also a skin care secret that's been around for centuries. Rose water will hydrate, tone, cleanse and soothe your complexion -  all while smelling like a dream.

 

History of rose water

Rose water has been used for centuries in the Middle East, India and China as a beauty treatment. A by-product of rose oil production, it's made by steam distilling rose petals.

If you're looking to add some exotic flair to your beauty routine, organic rose water is one way to do it. If you've ever tried Bulgarian rose oil or Bulgarian rose water mist (which smells divine), then you know how luxurious this product can be.

Rosewater has many benefits for your skin, including moisturising and brightening. The natural oils in rose water can also act as an antibacterial agent that may help prevent acne, according to Healthline. Rose water is also packed with antioxidants and vitamins A, B3 (niacin), C and E.

 

It smells lovely

Rose water has a lovely scent that makes it a great addition to your home, whether you want to use it as a perfume or in cooking. If you're tired of the overpowering artificial scents that are so often found in perfumes and colognes, rose water may be just the thing for you. The delicate aroma is gentle and feminine without being overpowering, making it perfect for wearing every day. In addition to its pleasant fragrance, rose water has many other uses:

  • You can add a few drops of rose oil to your favourite bath soak or facial cleanser before using them on your face; doing so will give them an even more delightful smell (and leave your skin feeling soft).
  • If you have acne prone skin or dry patches on your body after shaving, try adding some drops into an exfoliating sponge (like this one) before gently scrubbing away those dead cells - the result will be smoother skin all over!

 

Rose water is anti inflammatory

Rose water has been used for centuries to reduce inflammation and help with skin conditions like acne and eczema.

More recently, researchers have found that it may also be effective for treating rosacea (a chronic skin condition characterized by redness) and other forms of dermatitis, thanks to its high concentration of antioxidants.

In addition to being anti inflammatory, rose water also helps heal wounds and promote the healing of broken capillaries. This can translate into benefits for people who have rosacea or sensitive skin in general.

 

It's a natural toner

Rose water is a natural toner, so you can use it to remove makeup and cleanse your skin.

To use rose water as a toner for your face, pour about 2 tablespoons into a small bowl with lukewarm water and mix well. Wet a cotton pad with the rosewater mixture and gently swipe over your face to remove makeup. Follow up by applying moisturiser or night cream if desired! Leaving rose water on face overnight benefits your skin in many ways. It soothese and hydrates the skin, while leaving it soft and plump looking.

Rose water toner help to soothe and calm irritated or inflamed skin, and it also boosts collagen production which reduces fine lines. Rose water is a natural toner for the skin. It helps to remove dead skin cells, cleanse pores and restore moisture balance while also providing antibacterial protection from bacteria that causes acne breakouts.

Rose water works well as a toner, it can be used on all skin types and is suitable for people with sensitive skin too! If you're looking for an alternative to store bought products then why not try making your own at home?

 

It's a gentle cleanser

Our skin is a delicate organ, which makes it susceptible to breaking out and getting irritated. Using harsh products on your face can do more harm than good. Rose water is a gentle cleanser that won't cause dryness, redness or irritation. When used as a toner after cleansing the skin with rose water, it helps soothe the skin and reduce breakouts (and blemishes).

Rose water can also be used to remove makeup. Simply spray the rose water onto a cotton pad and gently wipe away makeup without harsh rubbing or scrubbing. Rose water also cleanses skin and makes it feel fresh and soft.

As a gentle cleanser, rose water can be used to cleanse the face and neck, leaving your skin feeling soft and supple. It is also helpful in soothing redness and irritation. If you are looking for an all natural way to cleanse your skin, then rose water is a great option that won't irritate.

 

It can hydrate your skin

Rose water is a natural toner. It can be used on your face as a cleanser, or to hydrate skin.

  • Using rose water as a facial cleanser: Mix rose water coconut yoghurt and apply on clean skin for 1-2 minutes before rinsing off with lukewarm water. This will remove dirt from your pores and leave the face soft and supple.
  • Applying rose water to dry skin: Spray some rose water on your hands and rub them together before massaging gently onto dry areas of the body (face, arms, legs etc.) until completely absorbed into the skin. The cooling effect of this treatment will help soothe inflammation caused by acne breakouts or minor burns while hydrating instantly!
  • Mixing rose water with face oil: Mix rose water with your face oil, for better absorption and extra hydration.

Rose water benefits your skin by working as a natural fragrance. You can use rose water on your face before bed or spray some onto clothing for an extra boost.

 

Just the smell can lift your mood

The smell of roses has a strong effect on people. Many people have reported feeling happy, relaxed, calm and confident when they smell roses. Some people even report feeling loved by the scent of roses.

This is because rose essential oil mimics the pheromones that we naturally produce when we're in love or attracted to someone else. This explains why you may feel warm and cozy when you smell itā€”it's like being wrapped up in a big hug from your favourite person!

Many of these smells are difficult to describe because they're so subjective. For example, some roses have an earthy smell while others smell more floral and sweet. A rose's scent can be altered by its environment: for instance, roses grown in colder climates tend to be more delicate with a hint of citrus or spice. Bulgarian rose is most commonly used in rose hydrosols and rose mists.

 

How to make rose water

  • Gather fresh rose petals
  • Boil water in a saucepan and add the rose petals to it. Let it simmer for about 15 minutes, then remove from heat and let cool completely before straining out the petals with cheesecloth or another type of strainer (you may want to do this step twice)
  • Add your homemade rose water to an empty spray bottle and store in a cool place until ready to use!
