About
Rugosa rose bud powder — a polyphenol-rich floral powder with antioxidant and skin-soothing intent. Minor fragrance-allergen carryover keeps it in upper-yellow.
Rosa rugosa bud powder is milled from the dried unopened flower buds of the rugosa rose. It carries anthocyanins, tannins, vitamin C, and trace essential-oil constituents (citronellol, geraniol), providing antioxidant and skin-conditioning activity. Listed in EU CosIng; analogous rose-flower materials have broad topical use history without significant safety incidents. Cosmetic levels are typically 0.1-2%. The fragrance-allergen content may trigger declaration under EU labelling rules, and the pigment can tint pale formulations. No CIR monograph specific to the bud powder; no IARC classification.
