Facial Cleasner





Rose water is one of the all-time best and most 


traditional facial

cleansers, because rose is astringent, anti-


inflammatory, antiseptic,


and has a lovely scent.

INGREDIENTS

1 cup rose-infused water

2 teaspoons glycerin

5 to 10 drops rose essential oil

Place a handful of dried rose petals in a mason 



jar, cover with boiling water, seal, and let 


set overnight. Note that dried rose petals are 


available in many health food stores (as is 


vegetable glycerin), or online from herbal 


supply stores.

After the rose petal infusion has set 


overnight, strain. Combine the ingredients in a 


pretty jar, and shake to blend. Note that you 


will extend the shelf life if you add 1/2 a 


teaspoon of grapefruit seed extract (available 


in health food stores). The antiseptic quality 


of essential oils will also act as a 


preservative.
