Rose Wax

Rosa damascena

Rose wax is a rich base for skincare products with a reminiscent smell of roses, helping to soothe the skin and reduce redness.

Rose wax is derived from the concrete obtained in the process of making rose absolute, which contains the aromatic chemicals and the waxy element of the rose. The solid concrete is then washed with alcohol to remove the absolute, and the remaining solid is rose wax.
