Rose, the Queen of Flowers

Roses are such lovely flowers! Rose Oil is the most beautiful and valuable of oils. A tremendous amount of work has to go into making it. The oil is pressed from the petals and it takes hundreds of roses to make one bottle of oil. 


Blend of Rose is more affordable. A blend is when the therapeutic oil is mixed with a carrier oil. All of the properties are still the same. It just makes it easier to get the benefits of this lovely oil by providing a more affordable option for buying it. We have Rose oil blended  in the carrier oil F.C.O. (Fractionated Coconut Oil)


The main therapeutic properties of Rose oil are that it can help as an antidepressant and as an antiseptic. It can help in the treatment of many female reproductive issues such as PMS, menopause, regulation of periods and even can help with some fertility issues. (Avoid use in early pregnancy, however, especially if there is a history of miscarriage.) Rose can give you feelings of love and helps allay feelings of anxiety and fear. In fact, it has been called the "Queen of Flowers". It's no wonder the flower has been used for gifts of love for centuries! 

Now, how to use it. We have some customers who mainly use it as a perfume. For that, it is better by far than any of the commercial scents. Rose can be mixed with any of the flower scents so you can try it with different ones like Lavender and see what works best for you. 

As skin care, you can mix it into lotions and creams. Just mix 2-5 drops with a tablespoon of the lotion or cream of your choice. (Always try it on a small area of skin first to make sure you don't have any adverse reactions.)

You can make a room spray by adding 6 drops of Blend of Rose, 2 drops of Bergamot, and 2 drops of Lavender in a cup of water. Put in a spray bottle and spritz your room for a nice air freshener. 

Another recipe to give you feelings of peace and love is to add 2 drops of Neroli,  4 drops of Blend of Rose, and 4 drops of Rosewood. You can use this one in a bath or in a diffuser. 

We have a coupon for 10% off a bottle of Blend of Rose that is still good for the next week. It ends on midnight (MDT), April 30, 2012. So hurry and use it now and order your bottle of Blend of Rose!
