Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Skin Protecting
Helps rebuild and strengthen your skin barrier — the invisible shield that keeps moisture in and irritants out. Essential after over-exfoliating or harsh weather.

Traditional Use
Rose water distilled from Rosa Centifolia has been used in European skincare since medieval times as a skin toner and refreshant. It was particularly popular in 18th-century France and England as a cosmetic staple for toning and perfuming the complexion.
