Rose has been part of beauty for centuries, from rose water on the skin to rose oil in perfume. That long history is why it keeps showing up in modern formulas, and also why \u201crose\u201d on a label can mean quite different things.<\/p>\n

Here is a simple guide to the different forms of rose, what each one is used for, and which of our products to look at.<\/p>\n

Not All Rose Is the Same<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Rose water (or hydrosol) is made by steam distilling rose petals. It\u2019s the gentle, watery form, and it\u2019s the one most people use on their skin.<\/p>\n

Rose otto is the essential oil from the same distillation. It takes several thousand kilos of petals to make a single kilo of oil, which explains the price. It has a lighter, more delicate scent.<\/p>\n

Rose absolute is made by solvent extraction instead of steam. It\u2019s richer, deeper and closer to the smell of the fresh flower, and it needs far fewer petals to make.<\/p>\n

Rose attar is the traditional name for rose oil, from the old distillation methods of the Middle East and India.<\/p>\n

Different roses also produce different personalities. Damask rose is the classic, while Rose de Mai (Rosa centifolia) has delicate petals that are usually solvent extracted, and the old apothecary rose has a long history in herbal tradition.<\/p>\n

What Rose Does for the Skin<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Rose is known as a gentle ingredient. Rose water is traditionally used to soothe and refresh the skin, and studies on rose extracts have found antioxidant activity, although researchers say more work is needed on rose water specifically. In short, it\u2019s a pleasant, calming ingredient that suits dry, mature and sensitive skin well, and it comes with one of the best scents in beauty.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re sensitive to fragrance, patch test first, since even natural scents can bother some skin.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n

Rose Waters and Mists<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The easiest way to start is with a rose water. Use it as a toner after cleansing, or as a mist during the day when your skin needs a refresh.<\/p>\n

Rose water is also one of the most forgiving products you can add to a routine. It\u2019s light and easy to layer, so it slots in between cleansing and your serum or oil without changing anything else you do. Many people keep one on their desk or in their bag for a midday pick-me-up, and it works over makeup too.<\/p>\n

Anima Mundi\u2019s Rose Water Beauty Myst is a soothing face toner, and Blue Beautifly\u2019s Organic Rose Toner is another simple choice. The Soft Rose Mineral Water is a pH-balancing face tonic, and Living Libations\u2019 Rose Glow Complexion Mist adds a glow. For something more layered, the Earth Rose\/Vetiver Mineral Water and the Glow White Rose\/Sandalwood Mineral Water combine rose with other botanicals.<\/p>\n

Tip:<\/strong> Mist your face while it is still slightly damp after cleansing, then follow with your serum or face oil. The water gives your skin a little moisture to hold on to, and your next product helps to seal it in.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t
