Rose petals have long been used in beauty rituals for their scent and beautifying properties. Rose water has a long history both as a tonic for the complexion and to perfume the body. It is reported that Cleopatra favored rose oil and used it to capture the love of Mark Antony.
Rose petals ready for picking.


Here is the bounty---
they smell wonderful!
Once the petals are picked and dried, I use them (ground) in my Lavender-Rose Clay Mask, and layer them with a blend of coarse sea salt and Dead Sea minerals for my Wild Rose Bath Salts with Dead Sea Minerals, where the salts will absorb the wonderful scent of the rose petals. They can also be found in Wild Rose & Lavender Soap.
