Rose extract in Korean cosmetics
Korean cosmetics are famous for their naturalness, so manufacturers from South Korea choose the most effective natural ingredients to create cosmetics.
One of these components is a rose. As a rule, Damascus rose from Bulgaria is used in Korean cosmetics. The petals are the part of the rose that has skin-friendly properties.
What components of rose are used in skin care?
The most well-known components of rose that are used for skin care are rose water and rose oil. Both are obtained by steam distillation from rose petals of different varieties.
Rose oil is the main product, so to speak, and rose water is usually a by-product that is produced automatically. The roses that are used for the commercial production of rose oil and rose water are mainly grown in France, Morocco, Bulgaria or Turkey and are often hand-picked.
By the way, about 4 tons of rose petals are needed per liter of pure rose oil, so essential oil, logically, is not cheap. To be precise, this is one of the most expensive essential oils in the world. Therefore, the perfume industry often uses synthetic rose fragrance, which is now very close to the original. Rose essential oil is rarely used in skin care.
On the other hand, rose water is a hydrosol and is currently very popular as a pure tonic.
Damask rose properties
Damask rose is made up of several components beneficial to the skin from the seeds extracted from the stem and petals. Chemically, it consists of terpenes, flavonoids, glycosides, anthocyanins. The plant also contains carboxylic acid, myricene, vitamin C and quercetin.
But most of the beneficial effects can be attributed to phenolic compounds that have an anti-inflammatory function.
