Rose water is a natural product that offers multiple benefits for the skin, provides vitamin E, moisturizes, is antioxidant, softens and tones the face. It is easily obtained in pharmacies, it is economical and you can also prepare it at home (link to post). Applying a little on the clean face with a cotton disc works as a tonic, closing the pores and improving the appearance of the skin. Using it as a splash refreshes and revitalizes the face at any time of the day.

This product has been an important discovery for me, I use it daily in different ways: on the face, hair and then hair removal. But in addition to this I have learned to give you several uses and to use it as a basis to make other products of homemade recipes, today I share with you my dear readers.

A good makeup fixative is the secret of singers to give a complete concert, dance, sweat and stay under the lights and make their makeup look perfect. We can also use one and the best of everything made by ourselves with natural components.

Ingredients:
100 ml of rose water.
5 or 10 drops of glycerin.

In a previously sterilized atomiser type container we will put the ingredients, the amount of glycerin will depend on our type of skin, a minimum of five drops for the oily skin and ten for the dry skin, the normal to mixed can use an intermediate amount. It can be applied in the form of a spray before or after the makeup to prolong its duration.

The three basic principles for daily face care are: Wash, tone and moisturize, in that order but why is it important to tone? The tonic removes the soap scum that can cause dryness and scaling, closes the pores and prepares the skin to receive other products. That a tonic is mattifying means that it removes the glitter of the face and will slow the production of fat by the sebaceous glands, which is very convenient for those who sweat a lot or have greasy complexion. To prepare our homemade tonic we only need two components.

Ingredients:
100 ml of rose water.
A spoonful cornstarch.

In a clean container with a lid or an atomizer bottle add the measure of rose water and the tablespoon of corn starch, wrapping a paper in the form of a funnel facilitates this task, cover and shake very well until dissolving the corn and forming a solution pastel pink. Thus we obtain tonic, softens the skin, gives a texture as silky and fresh as the petal of a flower. Before each use we must shake in the container because the cornstarch tends to settle in the bottom and separates from the water, you can use it at any time or when you see that shines in the T zone (front and nose).

More important than makeup is to remove make-up correctly, remove pigment residues, powders and waterproof products that are not removable with soap and water. For this we can use a biphasic make-up remover that is effective to eliminate conventional makeup and waterproof.It is conformed by two active agents, one oily and another aqueous, which in the state of rest are kept separate.

Ingredients:
Water of roses
Coconut or almond oil.

You can use any body oil, essential or cosmetic, of lavender, avocado, mandarin, olive, among others; the most gentle with the face are coconut and sweet almonds because they absorb better.
The preparation is very simple we only need to add the two liquids in a container with a lid, the water will keep in the bottom and the oil will rise to the surface, the quantities to use are directly proportional to the container, half of water and half of oil for normal to dry skin; three thirds of water and one third of oil for mixed piles of fats. To use it is very easy to just shake the container to integrate the ingredients, to put a bit on a cotton pad or disk, to give circular movements in the face, the contour of eyes and the lips, completely removes the mask of eyelashes, eyeliner and labial waterproof.
