I mix rosewater with my Infusium 23 leave to dilute it. Since I can't get the link to work, I just copied my response from another hair site about rosewater benefits: It can be used on the skin and hair. It is said to stimulate and increase the blood flow to the skin and scalp. It also balances sebum/oil production. I mix it with my leave-in (Infusium 23) and spray it in after washes.

You can buy it or you can make it yourself. Just put roses in a jar of distilled water for about a week. Make sure it is by a window where the sun can hit it and you shake it up at least 2 times a day. After the week is over pour the water out into a jar/bottle while straining out the rose petals. *Edit to add... if you have reusable tea bags just put the rose petals in the water and let it boil. It's good for skin and can be a room fragrance spray as well. ------------- Natural BC May 9, 2004 |

WOW, thank cmesweet. This info is really helpfull. I make my own leave-in with rosewater/glycerine water (from walgreens), light conditoner (no protein), and distilled water. This works great. Sistaslick, I'll have to try your concotion as well. It sounds really good, plus I like Infusium 23. ------------- 100% Natural BC - 4/21/07 Love All Gods' Creatures |

Try to get lighter color roses...I had dark red roses and I did not like the color of the water, but the scent was GREAT and I loved it on my hair and skin. ------------- Natural BC May 9, 2004 |
