Benefits of Roses For Skin Care

Among other things, roses are a natural astringent that helps staunch bleeding. So they have a long history of being used medicinally.

In fact, in Medieval Europe, they were grown more for use as food and medicine than for their beauty. So they were often grown all over the walls of castles. This wasn't simply decoration. It was a ready stock of critical medicine during times of war.

Hopefully, the only battle you are fighting is one involving skincare. Roses may be able to help you get your skin more in the range of the lovely texture of a rose petal.


A Hydrator and Wrinkle Eraser


Whether you are a young person with dry skin or someone getting on in years and concerned with wrinkles, the hydrating properties of this flower can help you. Rosewater rose oil and even consumables like a rose jelly are popular with many people for exactly this reason.


A Powerful Antioxidant


Oxidation is the same word we use to mean rust when it comes to metals. Oxidation is known to have a detrimental impact on health, well being and appearance. Getting enough antioxidants in your diet is critical if you want to be healthy and using them on your skin can help preserve or restore its youthful luster.


A Powerful Anti-inflammatory


Inflammation of the skin can give you puffy eyes and red skin. Ideally, you should be treating any underlying health concerns that are contributing to such an unflattering look, but that tends to be a long-term project. In the short term, you still want and need to look good today. Rosewater and other rose products can help you achieve that goal.

As an extra benefit, they have a lovely smell that is better than most synthetics.
