How to make your own rose water?

Everyone who loves beauty or pays attention to image will use some skin care products, but some skin care products on the market may contain alcohol, which is really unacceptable for some people with sensitive skin. Therefore, it will be much more reassuring to make some skin care products at home, and roses are the first choice. It is best to choose edible fresh roses, which are both safe and beautiful.

Please be careful when choosing materials here. There are no high requirements for the materials other than roses, but it is roses. To make a rose toner with the best effect on the skin, it is best to choose edible roses. Such roses can be eaten, so wouldn’t it be better to use them for skin care? Some roses are grown with chemical ingredients added, such as ripening agents, which are just average and not suitable for making toner!

First of all, take off the rose petals and rinse them. They must be fresh and clean. The fresher the roses, the better the rose water you get. If you grow the roses yourself, that would be the best. If you buy them from a flower shop, please soak and rinse the petals in cold water before starting the next step.

Put all the rose petals in a clean large pot, then add distilled water. The amount of distilled water should be just enough to cover the rose petals. Don't add too much water. Too much water will dilute the rose water, and the effect and fragrance will be reduced.

The author of the original blog used the traditional method, which is to cover the pot with a lid, lower the heat, and slowly let the rose's purifying essence go into the water. She describes that you will notice a change in color, watching the color of the petals slowly fade, while the water slowly turns a light pink.

When the color of the petals fades, pour the prepared rose water into the prepared container. This is the finished rose water. Is there a sweet rose scent? It is recommended to store it in the refrigerator or other cool place, and then you can use it as a toner!
