Sanft duftendes Rosenhydrolat

Gently scented rose hydrolate

 

Gently Fragrant Rose Hydrosol

Rose petals contain essential oils such as geraniol, citronellol, and nerol. They also contain vitamins A, C, and P (flavonoids), as well as lipids, waxes, and resins. The essential oils and tannins in roses have anti-inflammatory and nerve-strengthening effects, and are astringent for minor skin injuries or mucous membrane inflammations.

 

 

It is also recommended to apply a light rose hydrosol compress for insect bites. Itching and swelling quickly subside. Rose compresses work just as quickly and easily for swollen and irritated eyes: simply place a cotton pad with rose hydrosol as a soothing compress and relax your eyes for 10 minutes.

Note: Hydrosols should always be stored in a cool, dark place.
