We all know how amazing roses are for skin and hair and one simple way of incorporating this wonderful ingredient in your beauty routine is in the form of rose water. Rose not only makes your skin soft and supple but it also helps balance sebum production gradually and it also adds a nice rosy glow to your skin. I love using rose petal powder for skin and it is very easily available commercially. If not commercially, you can simply dry rose petals in direct sunlight and grind it into fine powder to use. Below are my favorite tried and tested 10 rose face masks to get a rosy glow –
