Rose is "therapeutic for natural beauty"
Women looking for new ways to enhance their natural beauty should consider roses, according to an expert, who believes the flower has healing powers and is great for the skin.
Camille Goutal, daughter of the world-renowned French perfumer Annick Goutal, spoke to Stylist recently about why rose is the new up and coming product designed for women interested in natural beauty.
"We've always known rose extracts are therapeutic – they have a 1,000 year-plus history for a start," she said, adding that her mother used roses for fragrance, rose oil in her bath and rose serum on her face.
Miss Goutal added that tests have proved to visibly reduce wrinkles and improve skin brightness and other studies have revealed that the flower boasts powerful antioxidants.
Scientists have recently discovered that the natural substance, English ivy, could be beneficial in the production of natural sunscreen, because it soaks up light effectively.
