BUY or BYE: Rosewater

Rosewater has been my summer essential and is usually around $10! Yes, I know, total steal. Now don’t get me wrong, as much as I LOVE the summer, I don’t love the way the sun, salt, and sand dry out my skin and make it look like the Sahara desert. Sometimes you just need to replenish your skin without chugging 8 bottles of water a day. All you have to do is spray your face and neck (ALWAYS pamper your neck!) after you cleanse your face/shower/before bed/as a makeup setter or anytime your skin needs some rehydration. I’ve gotten both my sisters AND my brothers addicted to rosewater so trust me it’s WORTH IT.

My personal favorite rosewater sprays are by Glossier and Mario Badescu… but, you can also make your own. Here’s what you need:

• Small spray bottle
• 1 Tbsp. Rosewater (as many clean rose petals you’d like and enough water to cover them, let simmer on med/low heat until the petals lose their color 20-30 mins
• 4 Tbsp. water (or enough to fill the spray bottle)

Definitely 5/5 Kisses
