Beauty Secrets of a Rose

The rose is a wonderfully beautiful flower, beloved by us women. It has also been used in beauty therapy for hundreds of years, but what is not commonly known is that in order to produce 1 gram of rose oil, it takes approximately 2000 petals. This makes any treatment using rose oil an extravagance not to be missed, especially as the scent of roses has the power to take away all of our worldly aches and cares and transport us into a timeless realm of bliss.

Roses contain vitamin E and vitamin C, both known to be greatly beneficial to the skin. Roses are also good for the skin for the following reasons:

  • They preserve, beautify and help to activate the skin’s metabolism.
  • They assist in balancing the hormone levels of women.
  • Lastly, they promote a feeling of relaxation!
