Roses are read so, why can't be you? A very bad example of poetry. Agreed! All of us wish for a younger beautiful skin. And, rosewater can help us in doing that. As we all know rosewater is an aromatic extract from rose petals, it also acts as a natural moisturizer for your skin and hair. Instead of buying rosewater from the market, prepare your natural skin care solution at home.

How to make rosewater at home?

1. Boil water in a container and add fresh rose petals to it.

2. Cover the container with a lid and let it cool. After few hours, keep the covered container in a refrigerator for about 24 hours.

3. After refrigerating, strain the rose petals and store it in an air-tight bottle. To keep the rosewater fresh, store it in a refrigerator.

Rosewater for face:

1. Soak a cotton ball in rosewater and then apply it to your face. This not only cleanses the face but, open pores and refreshes the skin.

2. Add few drops of rosewater to face packs to moisturize the skin. Few face packs become more useful for skin after adding rosewater.

3. Multani mitti (Fuller's earth) is one of the best face packs to get a clear and glowing skin. Add few drops of rosewater to your face pack and apply it on your face and neck.

4. Oranges exfoliate the skin and open pores. Dry orange peels and then grind them to make it a fine powder. Add few drops of rosewater and then apply the pack on your face. Leave it for 15 minutes and then rinse with cold water to get a clear and glowing skin.

How to use rosewater for hair?

1. Condition your hair with rosewater. As a natural moisturizer, it softens the hair and adds shine to it.

2. Add few drops of rosewater in half bucket water. Rinse after hair wash to get silky hair.

3. For better hair growth, mix avocado or olive oil with rosewater. Apply on the scalp and massage for few minutes. Leave for 2 hours and then rinse with a mild shampoo.

These are few uses of rosewater. Use this rose extract after bath to smell fresh all day long!
