The Flower Power of the Rose in Skin Care
The rose is considered one of the most beautiful flowers in the world. Since earliest times, roses were important in hand lotions, cosmetics, and perfumes. Natural rose water, rose oil and rose petal has been prized for skin care since ancient times. These therapeutic properties help balance the skin with astringent and anti-bacterial, without stripping moisture from the skin. Now how’s that for flower power?
Flower Power -Rose Botany
Did you know? A rose is a woody perennial of the genus Rosa, within the family Rosaceae. There are over 100 species. They form a group of plants that can be erect shrubs, climbing or trailing with stems that are often armed with sharp prickles (or thorns). Most species are native to Asia, with smaller numbers native to Europe, North America, and northwest Africa.1
The rose is not only a symbol of love and care worldwide, but it is the national flower of the United States and other places throughout the globe.
The Flower Power of Rose Petal
Rose petal is known in skin care for its soothing, healing and other therapeutic properties. It’s used in hair oils, hair pack and other conditioning treatments to soften hair. However, in skin care, it’s mainly used in face and body masks, bath scrubs, body wash, body powder, soap and other skin care preparations. It’s inexpensive and yet includes bits of rose oil and other important elements of the rose. For centuries, rose petal has been used to help cure skin infections, inflammations and as a natural cooling agent with a soothing fragrance.
