So I bought rose water!!!!!

[Qualitee]

So what should I do with it? Mine says rose water food flavoring, is rose water all the same? or should I not put this I my hair? I assume that rose water doesn't have a high ph(?)
....maybe I should give this to my mother to make black cake

Bumping for more responses

I add rose water to my amla mix but honestly I have absolutely no idea what to do with this product

 

[LongLeggedLife]

Hmmm, Idk about that one...its artificial, & why does it have alcohol as an ingredient?? I think that one is just reg water and rose 'artificial flavoring'.

I have only ever bought Ahmed brand, and its lists 50%distilled water+50% rose distillate as the only ingredients.

I use it in my spray bottle, to refresh styles next day, to re-wet hair when I'm setting my hair, to spritz over the finished set style for extra hold on dry hair(braid.twist.bantu knot outs). Mix henna with it. Mix in a couple t.'s of evoo in my spray bottle also...

I've never used that kind OP. I like to mix mine with glycerin for my hair and skin. I use it in my bottle leave-in mix too when I have it on hand. Dabur is kind of drying but there is another kind (I have to find it again) that is MUCH more moisturizing.

Yeah, I just saw that in my grocery store last week and it caught my eye until I saw alcohol in it and I put it back. I don't think they normally have alcohol in it. I've used the Dabur one and I liked it. I didn't like the Heritage one. I tried the concentrate from Now foods-liked but too expensive.

I want some of this. I was just at whole foods yesterday and forgot to pick some up. I want it to add to clay treatments coz that's the recipe I borrowed from the treasured locks website. You need real rose water to get a benefit from it. Artificial rose water is just flavoring - but it should be pretty good in cakes or cookies.

that on has parabans too. I saw it at the Carribean market.

I bought some from a botanica....I made a spritz with it. Not sure if it's the same type as yours though.

 

[Iluvsmuhgrass]

BTW that's artificial. Go for the real deal. You can use it straight without mixing anything into it.

I love rose water! Mine lists "Vor-Mag Water" and Hydroessential Rose Oil as the ingredients. I mix it in a spray bottle with a little Wheat Germ Oil and DB's Peach Kernel Hair Milk. It makes my hair soft and keeps the WGO smell to a minimum.

I get this one as well. I love rose water. I use it as a toner for my face before I apply my sapote oil. I also use it as a refresher spray for my hair. It's awesome. It is moisturizing and it smells nice
