September Star Ingredient: Rose Water

September Star Ingredient: Rose Water

This September, we’re delighted to talk about an all-rounder in skincare: Rose Water. This distillate, made from rose petals, can work magic on your skin. It acts as a cleanser and toner - removing dirt and excess oil from pores to unclog them. Due to its ayurvedic nature, it can maintain the natural pH balance of every skin type. Its antibacterial properties treat irritation, redness and acne spots. A spritz of rose water can also freshen and hydrate your skin. Therefore, it is very easy to incorporate into your daily skincare routine because of the variety of roles it can take.

Did you know that rose water acts as a natural cleanser and toner? Yes, it cleanses the skin to gently remove grime and prevent white and black heads from forming. Looking for a light second cleansing agent? Look no further than Ayur’s ayurvedic herbal rose water. Just wash your face and apply rose water - either via a spray bottle or via a cotton pad. The best part is that you don’t need to follow up with a chemical toner - rose water acts as a natural toner as well. It works to balance sebaceous glands, leaving the skin hydrated and at its natural pH before soaking in serums and moisturisers. This balancing act is essentially the behind-the-scenes workings of rose water’s main aim: to stabilise the skin’s optimal pH level. Wondering how rose water achieves this feat? Keep reading…

The balancing out of the pH level depends on the balancing out of the natural oil production. As rose water exercises its hydrating power, the skin takes cue and produces the optimal amount of moisture - neither too much, nor too less - helping sustain healthy amounts of sebum in the skin barrier. This makes it a one of a kind agent as it is compatible with every skin type - thus, helping each skin type retain its natural pH level. If your skin is oily, rose water will decrease sebum production and if it is dry, it will increase sebum production. Thus, it is also perfect for combination skin, working on each aspect of the skin - oily and dry/normal - optimising sebum production according to different skin areas’ different needs. Moreover, herbal rose water formulae like Ayur’s ayurvedic rose water are gentle enough to soothe sensitive skin as well. If your skin is normal in type, you can use this rose water in compliment to your regular routine.

Rose water’s antibacterial and antiseptic properties help clean cuts and wounds, further helping to heal these and other problems like burns faster. It mitigates sunburns with its cooling properties. It also alleviates irritation, redness and the severity in appearance of acne scars.

Finally, you can use rose water on the go. A spritz of rose water on the face can leave you feeling refreshed without having to go through your entire skin care routine i.e. it’s perfect for a midday pick me up or a coolant from the harsh sun.
