Roses symbolize romance and beauty, and are a popular ingredient in beauty products due to their numerous benefits. Known for its antibacterial, anti-fungal and antiviral properties, rose essential oil is often used to treat various ailments such as burns, abrasions, and other skin conditions. As a natural astringent, rose helps tighten pores and restore suppleness for the ultimate glow. Rose water helps treat acne, calm the skin, and soothe inflammation and redness.
