Ingredients:

1. 300ml distilled or purified water.
2. 10 - 15 fresh roses.
3. Glycerin (1-2 tablespoons to moisturize the skin).
4. Essential oil (5-10 drops): Choose oils like lavender, chamomile, rose, or violet for a pleasant fragrance.
5. Spray bottle or container (500ml): Used for storing rose water.

Instructions:

Step 1: Extract Rose Essence

- Clean the roses, separate the petals, and place them in a container.

- Boil water and pour the hot water into the container with rose petals to create concentrated rose water. Cover and let the essence soak for about 15-20 minutes.

Step 2: Filter Rose Essence

- Filter the rose essence through a paper filter or cloth to remove impurities and extract the rose water.

Step 3: Add Glycerin to the Mixture

- Add glycerin to the mixture of pure water and rose essence. Glycerin helps in retaining moisture for the skin.

Step 5: Mix the Solution

- Stir the mixture well to ensure all components blend harmoniously.

Step 6: Pour the Solution into the Container

- Use a filter or a small funnel to pour the rose water mixture into a spray bottle or container.

Step 7: Store and Use the Final Product

- Use the rose water after cleansing your face to balance the pH and prepare your skin for the following skincare steps.

Note:

- Each person has different skin types, so it's advisable to test the rose water on a small portion of your skin before using it to ensure there are no allergic reactions.

Benefits of Rose Water

1. pH Balance for the Skin:

   - Rose water helps balance the skin's pH, reducing the risk of it becoming excessively dry or oily. This is crucial for maintaining skin health and moisture.

2. Skin Soothing:

   - The gentle ingredients in rose water soothe and reduce irritation on the skin, especially after cleansing. Rose water can be used to restore and soothe the skin after exposure to UV rays from sunlight.

3. Aiding in Removing Residual Dirt”:

   - Rose water cleanses leftover impurities and dirt after the cleansing step, making the skin feel cleaner and more comfortable.

4. Enhancing Nutrient Absorption:

   - Rose water can help open up pores, making the subsequent skincare steps more effective. Using rose water before applying other skincare products helps the skin absorb nutrients better.

5. Moisturizing:

   - Adding moisture to the skin is one of the essential functions of rose water, helping maintain the necessary moisture for healthy skin.

6. Antioxidant Properties:

   - Some rose waters contain antioxidant ingredients like vitamin C and E, protecting the skin from the effects of free radicals and aging.

7. Providing Nutrients to the Skin:

   - Some rose waters may contain nutrient-rich ingredients, such as extracts from roses, nurturing the skin from within.

8. Reducing Inflammation after Pimple Popping:

   - When the skin is irritated or red after popping a pimple, rose water can help soothe and reduce swelling.
