Why the powerful beauty potion belongs in your life
Ingredient Focus: Rose Water

Since the days of Cleopatra, rose water has been known as a powerful beauty potion.

Rose water is having a big moment in beauty. The Romans have been using the holistic water in their baths and teas before we, our mothers, grandmothers and great grandmothers were even born. To this day, it has stood the test of time and is still considered an ultimate powerhouse. Rose water is made using rose petals from the Rosa damascene flower, a species of the rose family. Don’t confuse it for just some fancy rose scented water though babes. It is a dermatologist-approved beauty must-have that hydrates, heals and maintains your skin’s pH balance. It also has a list of natural health benefits that include being a natural antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. Here’s how you can use the romantic water to make your beauty routine 10 times better.

It's full of antioxidants
Antioxidants are necessary to prevent damage to our skin caused by the imbalance of free radicals from UV rays, pollution and stress. Rose water contains a number of powerful antioxidants, which can help protect cells from damage.

It can be used as a toner
Swapping your toner for rose water will do wonders for your skin. Its antibacterial properties will soothe irritated, acne-prone skin and help hydrate dry skin. Did you know that your Bali Body Face Tan Water (which is loaded with rose water) can double as your toner and face tanner? Just pour some on a cotton pad and spread it lightly all over your face, neck & décolletage. Your skin will feel instantly soothed and you’ll wake up looking exceptionally glowing in the morning.

It helps with acne
Rose water has antimicrobial properties, meaning that it can serve as an all-natural treatment for acne. If you suffer from acne or rosacea and have been searching for an all natural treatment, rose water can help. Additionally, if you suffer from acne and find a normal fake tan triggers your skin to breakout even more, our Face Tan Water is your answer. The anti-inflammatory properties in the clear water will also help reduce skin redness and puffiness in your complexion.

It has anti-aging properties
We’re constantly chasing youth, so it’s no surprise that one of the reasons rose water is taking over the beauty world is because of its anti-aging effects. When applied topically, rose water can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. 

It's hydrating for both the skin and hair
Rose water doesn't just do wonders for your skin, it can also hydrate your hair without adding extra weight. Add a few drops of rose water into your shampoo or conditioner for an added boost of moisture. If you're not a fan of DIY, choose a shampoo and conditioner duo with rose extracts already included. 

It enhances your mood
Studies have shown that rose water helps to promote a calmer and more relaxed body and mind. Spray some on your pillow before sleep or have a bath with a few added drops. It will not only soothe your mind & promote ultimate relaxation but your skin will smell like a rosy dream.
