You’ve had the bottle for months, just sitting on your shelf. You bought it because it smelled good and looked pretty. You added it to your cart but never clicked checkout. Or maybe somebody gifted it to you… or even regifted it because they didn’t know how to use it either. Any way you slice it, you still don’t know how to use rose oil, or even what it does. Good news– we’ve done the research for you. This is your sign to dust off that bottle and get glowing.
🌹What Is Rose Oil?
Rose Oil is an essential oil, or mix of essential oils, that can be used to hydrate skin in a clean way. Simply Bare rose oil is made with rosehip oil. Rosehip oil is primarily used for skincare because it contains a high amount of vitamins A,C, and E. Rosehip oil is a cold-pressed botanical oil made from wild rose bushes. It is a natural ingredient designed to treat your skin cleanly, without aggravation.
A key ingredient in our rose oil, besides rosehip oil, is jojoba oil. Jojoba oil is a liquid wax, but it is considered to be a plant oil. This allows jojoba oil to moisturize so deeply without leaving your skin greasy. Jojoba oil mimics your skin’s natural oil, sebum, which signals to your body that it does not need to overproduce oil. This keeps your pores unclogged and clear.
✨Benefits of Rose Oil
Rose Oil is deeply hydrating. It contains omega-3, omega-6, and fatty acids, which strengthen your skin’s moisture barrier. Rose oil also promotes the production of collagen and cell turnover, making it an anti-aging secret weapon. This helps soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The naturally occurring vitamins support your complexion by fading dark spots and evening out your skin tone. Rose oil can also improve scars and stretch marks. It is lightweight and gentle, making it ideal to calm redness and irritation. Simply Bare rose oil contains other natural oils that are packed with benefits– you can read about some of them here. Having an all-in-one oil containing the best natural ingredients makes your skincare routine optimal for any length of time you have to spend.
🌙How to Use Rose Oil
This is where most people get stuck. And it’s okay– we’re here to help. You don’t have to overthink rose oil. The secret to making the most of rose oil is to use it during your bedtime routine. Rose oil is a moisture barrier, and by applying it at night your skin has time to properly hydrate without interruption from sun, clothes, sweat, and life. It is a natural oil, meaning it can be used all over your body.
Rose oil works best on top of body butter. It locks in the moisture from both products for a stronger hydration bomb on your skin. Rose oil can even be used on your cuticles and in your hair. Another alternative use is to add a couple drops into a warm bath for a relaxing self-care moment. You can also mix some rose oil and water in a spray bottle to create a pillow spray for an elevated bedtime experience. Rose oil is a multifunctional oil that you don’t want to pass up.
🤔Where People Go Wrong
Don’t replace your moisturizer with rose oil. Sure, rose oil is hydrating, but it works ten times better when it is applied on top of a moisturizer. This is a common mistake that luckily has an easy fix. Rose oil is a seal. It should always be your final step to lock in all the moisture you are adding from your other body care products, like body butter. Rose oil is an antioxidant shield designed to revitalize and restore skin. You only unlock these benefits’ full potential when you use rose oil last.
Rose oil is your new best friend. Use it wisely– your skin will thank you.
