You can’t get more romantic than giving the one you love a bouquet of roses, right? The sweet, sensual scent of the flowers tells the other person everything they need to know about your feelings in one simple gesture. But what about showing yourself some love too? Luckily you can, and in a more satisfying, sustainable way too… with rose-based skincare! Rose is a fabulous ingredient to soothe and calm your skin, so let’s take a look at all the wonderful ways you can pamper yourself for the ultimate self-care session you deserve.
Bring down irritating inflammation
If you suffer from reactive, sensitive skin or you have inflammatory conditions like eczema or psoriasis then rose might be the natural ingredient that could solve your problems. Rose is known for its anti-inflammatory properties, and can calm down irritated skin in the gentlest way possible. Rose water is a great way of incorporating this ingredient in a fuss-free, easy way into your daily skincare routine – there are many rose water toners on the market for this very purpose!
Blast away bacteria in a gentle way
Not only is rose a wonderful way of bringing down inflammation, but it’s an extremely gentle way of reducing breakouts too. Due to its antibacterial nature, rose can cleanse away any grime that can cause spots, all without the stinging or high strength of other spot treatments. So this is an ideal option for those with sensitive skin who are also prone to breakouts, as you can tackle spots without compromising your skin’s barrier.

Tone up without tightness
As mentioned above, rose water is especially effective when used daily as a way to ensure your complexion is always soothed and softened. Another use rose water has is to tone skin – this means pores are less visible and your skin is given a lovely glow after application. Lots of other toners on the market include alcohol in their ingredients list, which can leave skin feeling tight and dehydrated. But rose water toners usually do not include this, which is great news for those with dry complexions or for those looking for a radiant finish. The dewiness rose gives to your skin is instant, so it’s definitely worth a try!
Deeply moisturise your skin
Every single skin type needs to moisturise in order to have plump, healthy skin. Rose is capable of intensely hydrating the skin without weighing it down or making it overly-greasy, therefore it’s suitable for everyone to use. It also helps retain moisture, which has the long-term benefit of keeping skin soft over time. Now there’s no excuse to skip this important step in your skincare routine!
