- Dried rose petals
- Glass bottle with dropper Perfect for easy application.
- 6 ounces Jojoba oil it’s lightweight and great for all skin types.
- 20 drops Vitamin E oil A natural preservative and excellent for skin nourishment.
- 8 ounce mason jar with lid
Fill the mason jar about halfway with dried rose petals.
Pour in 6 ounces of jojoba oil. If you’re using a mason jar, the side measurements make this easy. Otherwise, a measuring cup works just fine.
Add 20 drops of vitamin E oil for extra nourishment
Infuse the OilYou have two options for infusion:Let the mixture sit in the mason jar for about a week. This allows the oil to fully absorb the benefits of the rose petals.Use a double boiler on the stove for a faster infusion. I personally prefer the sit-and-wait method, it’s easier, and the results are just as good. After infusion, strain out the petals and pour the oil into a glass dropper bottle using a funnel. This step helps since the bottle opening is usually small.

- For Skin: Use it as a facial oil or mix a few drops into your body lotion for extra hydration.
