Rosa damascena
Formulated with organic Otto rose essential oil, steam-distilled from Damask roses grown in the world-renowned Valley of Roses in Bulgaria, this oil features a rich, sweet, and delicate floral fragrance, earning it the title "Queen of Essential Oils." It effectively improves skin hydration, offers excellent anti-wrinkle and skin-firming properties, and provides therapeutic benefits for facial redness caused by dilated capillaries. The scent of rose helps uplift the mood and soothe the nerves. Rose essential oil is highly prized for its intense, authentic floral aroma and its exceptional cost, as it requires a vast quantity of rose petals to produce even a tiny amount of oil through a labor-intensive extraction process.

【Emotional Benefits】
Helps soothe emotions, especially during times of frustration, anxiety, sadness, and depression, while uplifting the spirit and relieving nervous tension and stress. Rose is a profoundly feminine essential oil that encourages positive feelings of self-worth. It triggers the release of dopamine, the "happiness hormone," to alleviate underlying tension and stress. It is better suited than many other essential oils for treating female reproductive system disorders; it acts as an excellent hormone supplement and has powerful therapeutic effects on the uterus, helping to treat mild uterine prolapse, easing premenstrual tension, and promoting vaginal secretion. It can regulate the menstrual cycle and reduce heavy menstrual flow. For women experiencing emotional distress related to their reproductive system, menstrual cycles, or even postpartum depression, rose essential oil offers a very gentle antidepressant effect.
【Skin Benefits】
Rose essential oil offers exceptional skin-care benefits and is suitable for all skin types. It is particularly helpful for mature, dry, hardened, sensitive, or aging skin; its firming and soothing properties are highly effective against inflammation. Its ability to gradually condition and constrict capillaries makes it well-suited for reducing facial redness caused by dilated capillaries, though it must be applied daily for several weeks or months to see results. Pure rose essential oil shows remarkable effects in combating wrinkles, reducing puffiness, and fading dark spots, and it can even be effective for certain types of neurodermatitis.
【Contraindications】
Rose essential oil has emmenagogue and labor-inducing properties, and therefore should be avoided by pregnant women.
