It is generally accepted that Bulgarian rose is the finest in the world. Bulgarian Rose Otto absolute is diluted in Jojoba oil to make this heavenly essential oil dilution. It is very sweet and floral with dusky undertones.
Freya believes that Rose is the queen of essential oils being extremely beneficial to women - especially the female reproductive system and for skincare. It also acts as a tonic for the heart, liver, stomach and uterus. It is thought to have the most diverse therapeutic benefits of all of the essential oils - and could be your 'go to' blend for anything relating to soul, spirit and body.
It has been used as a healing oil since ancient times. Rose oil is one of the most complex essential oils known with more than 300 chemical compounds of which the greater part is still unidentified.
Rose is one of the top oils to turn to for stress and anxiety. It is a gentle but potent antidepressant and a sedative for nerves. Its useful for the treatment of palpitations, irritability and insomnia. It helps to release negative emotions such as anger, despair and frustration - ie a good 'letting go' oil. Its also an excellent oil for grief as its very comforting in times of sorrow.
Rose is invaluable with the female cycle, helping to regulate periods and relieving menstrual cramps and helping with excessive bleeding. In terms of skincare Rose oil has excellent emollient, softening and hydrating properties making it ideal for all skin types especially dry, mature and sensitive skin. It has an astringent effect on the capillaries and can be used for the treatment of broken capillaries, redness and inflammation of the skin.
Rose oil is cool and moist in its nature so beneficial for inflammation and clearing heat. Rose oil is used in our Hormone Harmoniser, Total Relaxation and Heavenly Floral blends.
