About
Dog rose flower — a traditional soothing botanical with flavonoids and tannins. Mild and well tolerated for most, but watch for floral fragrance allergy.
Rosa canina flower, the bloom of the dog rose, has a long history of herbal and cosmetic use. The flower contains flavonoids, tannins, and small amounts of essential oil, supporting mild astringent and antioxidant functions. EU CosIng lists it without restriction; no GHS hazard class is assigned. Main caveats relate to floral fragrance constituents (geraniol, citronellol, linalool) that can sensitize predisposed users, pollen residues, and batch variability from harvest and extraction.
