Benefits of Rosewater

Helps to ease redness

Research on rose water states that rose oil and rose water have an astringent effect on the blood capillaries. Applying rose water helps ease redness caused by the enlarged capillaries. However, you have to make sure that the product contains pure and natural oil.

Rosewater reduces oil secretion and cleanses pores from deep within. Make a smooth paste with a splash of rosewater and Multani mitti. Apply a thin coat of it on your face and rest until it becomes dry. Rinse off with lukewarm water.
