Aroma Essentials : Rose Face Wash

There is a reason why roses (and rose beauty products) are synonymous with beautiful skin. Rose's essential oils and chemical composition keep it supple, soft, and full of volatile scent compounds. The leathery feel of a rose petal is one not soon forgotten, much like the touch of baby soft skin. You can get close to that degree of softness on your own skin by simply working some rose in anywhere you can!

The natural oils found in roses help lock moisture into the skin, keeping skin feeling smooth. Rose is especially beneficial for those with sensitive skin because the sugars in its petals create a soothing feeling (2).
