In the Mood for Rose
Refreshing, hydrating and tending to mind and body, the scent of rose has carried the connotation of love for thousands of years.
Rose belongs to the family Rosaceae and genus Rosa which contains about 150 species. According to Greek mythology, Aphrodite, goddess of beauty, gave the rose its name in honor of her son Eros by rearranging just one letter in his name. In time Eros gave the rose to Harpocrates, god of silence, as a bribe to conceal the weakness of the gods. From there, the rose became symbolic of secrecy, silence and love.
Sauca Botanicals' Blossom Bliss Skin Mist is an ode to a freshly bloomed rose. It contains aloe vera distillate, organic rosa damascena hydrosol and rosa damascena absolute. Damask rose is one of many rose hybrids and it's composed of rosa gallica and rosa moschata. If you've ever had the chance to smell a recently bloomed damask rose, that is exactly the scent of this product. Rose Hydrosol is steam distilled water of fresh rose petals. It is great for all skin types and is especially favored as a toner by those with sensitive or mature skin. By misting your skin you may find stress relief, less anxiety, and relaxation of mind and body. The essential oils of rose move deep into your skin and the air in your lungs, regenerating skin while comforting the mind. It may slowly relax muscles, spasms and reduce inflammation.
Fossil records show rose to be one of the most ancient of flowers. It probably originated in Central Asia but spread and grew wild over nearly the entire northern hemisphere. The cultivation and use of roses likely began in Asia about 5,000 years ago and they have been an intimate part of human civilization ever since.
