Emotional & spiritual benefits
Rose is a truly female oil, supporting and soothing emotions whilst promoting positive feelings of self-worth. It can be utilised during times of intense negative reactions, such a sorrow, jealousy and bitterness. It helps to acknowledge those feelings and then let them go. It can also lift a heavy heart and ease tension. Rose often symbolises love and care and can be used to manifest these sentiments.
Cosmetic benefits
Benefiting all skin types, Rose not only brings a sense luxury to skincare products but provides many valuable cosmetic benefits. It is often used where there is redness, dryness or irritation as it soothes, hydrates and softens the skin. It is particularly helpful in products for mature, dry, rough or sensitive skin.
Formulation types
Rose is included in a variety of formulations, including anti-ageing products, face creams, serums, perfumery, female essential oil blends, bath products, body lotions and more. Its feminine aroma lends itself perfectly to high end products for women of all ages.
