HIGH ALTITUDE ORGANICS Rose Floral Wax is a byproduct of Rose essential oil absolute production and is obtained from organically cultivated Bulgarian Rose Damascena flower blossoms. Rose Floral Wax is of solid wax-like consistency at room temperature and corresponding light-to-midium brown color. It emits a mild Rosa Damascena fragrance.
What is Rose Floral Wax? Plants naturally produce wax as a means to waterproof and protect themselves. Floral waxes are comprised of the natural wax and precious aromatic components that are present within fragrant flower blossoms and petals. During the production of rose absolute oil, a solid, exquisitely aromatic concrete is created first. The floral concrete contains both the natural Rose aromatic constituents and the natural waxes of the rose blossoms. When the rose absolute oil is removed, the remaining solid is – natural Rose Floral Wax.
The natural Rose Floral Wax is often utilized in candles (mixed with other waxes), aromatic melts, and solid perfumes, because it retains the beautiful fragrance of Bulgarian Roses. The Rose Floral Wax is natural and has soothing and softening properties for the skin when used in skin care, such as creams, lotions, balms, hair conditioning products, etc.
Roses have a long history of use in folk remedies, especially in the area of skincare. Rose skin products are suitable for all skin types, and are especially valuable for dry, sensitive or aging skin. Roses produce a toning and tightening effect on the skin. Roses are often used in spiritual meditation, aromatherapy, and massage sessions for their soothing effect on the skin, body, and spirit.
Our Rose Damascena Floral Wax makes an exquisite aromatic addition and thickener for natural solid perfumes, balms, creams and other solid and semi-solid formulations. It is an ideal vegan substitute in formulations that call for beeswax.
