About
Ground rugosa rose petals — a botanical powder rich in polyphenols. Gentle and widely tolerated, though rose-allergic users should patch-test first.
Rosa rugosa flower powder is the dried, milled petals of the rugosa (beach) rose. It supplies polyphenols (anthocyanins, tannins) and small amounts of essential oil components, giving it mild astringent and antioxidant character. Used in masks, cleansing grains, and decorative formulations. No CMR, genotox, or endocrine concerns. Not an EU Annex II/III listed restriction. Score sits in Fine (65–79) because botanical powders vary in pesticide/heavy-metal residues by source, and rose-pollen-sensitive users occasionally react. Cosmetic data is moderate — long use history but limited controlled efficacy trials.
