From Petals to Skincare: How Rosewater Is Created

When you think of roses, you probably imagine beauty, softness, and luxury. But did you know that roses are more than just pretty petals? At Atti Amour, we believe every drop should do something good for your skin—which is why we use rosewater instead of plain water in our formulations. But how is rosewater actually made? Let’s break it down.

✨ What Is Rosewater?

Rosewater is a fragrant liquid made by steeping or distilling rose petals. It’s rich in antioxidants and has natural soothing and hydrating properties, making it a beautiful base for skincare. While most skincare products use water as a filler, rosewater adds real benefits with every drop.

🥣 Method 1: Simmering (Traditional, Simple)

This is the most common and easy method used at home or in small-batch formulations.

How it works:

• Fresh rose petals are gently simmered in distilled water.
• As the petals heat up, they release their natural oils and beneficial compounds into the water.
• After about 30 minutes, the liquid is cooled and strained—what’s left is fragrant, nutrient-rich rosewater.

Result: A lightly scented, rose-infused water with skin-loving properties.

🔬 Method 2: Steam Distillation (More Potent, Professional)

This is the method used in professional skincare production, including Atti Amour’s formulations.

How it works:

• Fresh petals are placed in a distillation chamber with water underneath.
• As the water is heated, steam rises and passes through the petals, extracting the pure essence of the rose.
• The steam is then cooled and condensed into two parts: rose essential oil and rose hydrosol (rosewater).
• The rosewater is collected and used as a base for high-performance skincare products.

Result: A more concentrated and stable rosewater with powerful benefits for calming, hydrating, and revitalizing the skin.

🌿 Why Rosewater Instead of Water?

Most skincare products contain up to 80% plain water, which doesn’t benefit your skin. At Atti Amour, we take a different approach. We believe every ingredient should serve a purpose. That’s why our products are made without water and start with rosewater instead.

Rosewater brings:

• 🌸 Natural hydration
• 🌸 Skin-calming benefits
• 🌸 A gentle, refreshing scent
• 🌸 Antioxidants to help protect and restore skin

It’s more than a trend. It’s the reason Atti Amour feels like self-care from the very first step.

💖 Final Thoughts

Rosewater isn’t just beautiful—it’s functional. Whether simmered or distilled, it brings a luxurious, nourishing touch to skincare that plain water simply can’t match. That’s why it’s the heart of Atti Amour. Every drop is doing something good for your skin.
