Over three thousand years ago, the rose plant was highly valued for various reasons: Its beauty adorned the finest gardens, its soothing fragrance became popular with both men and women, and its oil was medicinally essential thanks to its anti-inflammatory effects. Rose oil is considered the first flower essence in human history, and is today the most used essential oil in the perfume and cosmetics industry. Since its first extraction in Babylonian times, rose oil has been extremely effective for skin care and for the aromatic relaxation of the mind.


The Skin Care Effect of Rose Oil

The skin care effect of rose oil relies on the antiseptic, antibiotic, regenerative, and antimicrobial properties of its components. In the distillation of the Rosa Damascena oil, for instance, natural substances such as methyl eugenol, nerol, eugenol, or citral are released, which are considered to have particularly healing and regenerating effects. Wild rose oil, the oil of Rosa Canina or Rosa Mosqueta, has similar healing and antiseptic characteristics, as well. Rose oil has an anti-inflammatory effect on the skin, moisturizes and promotes blood circulation, which is a blessing for recovery of face and body skin!
