Rose water has been used for thousands of years for cosmetic purposes and it is said that even the famous Cleopatra used rose water on her face and body to maintain her youth. I have been using rose products for quite some time now and I can say for sure that rose is extremely beneficial for my skin.
Not only I love the scent of rose products but I also love the healthy glow and softness it gives to my skin. I currently use a natural rose water spray as a toner from the brand Rose of Bulgaria, which is an excellent product.
