Summer Rose Face Mist, Anyone?
An Easy Summer Rose Face Mist with Kore Herbals
Picture this: it’s a sunny day with a cool breeze, birds are chirping in the distance, roses are fragrantly blooming, and life. is. good.
May we recommend distilling and bottling that feeling into a perennial face mist? Portland’s Kore Herbals showed us how, and let us tell you, a little spritz turns a bad day good, and a good day better. Best of all, this DIY is e-z p-z!
Ingredients + Supplies
1 tbsp (or so) freshly picked rose petals
1 cup purified or distilled water
Strainer, funnel, and small glass misting bottle
Optional: witch hazel, rose oil, lavender or bergamot essential oils

Step 1
Bring water to a boil.
Step 2
Once boiling, remove from heat and add rose petals.
Step 3
Cover and let roses infuse for 1-2 minutes.
Step 4
Strain liquid, then funnel into a misting bottle.
Step 5
Pop into fridge, and mist away!
Optional: Add a Scent
Add up to 5 drops of lavender or bergamot essential oil for a lovely uplifting scent.
Optional: Make it into a Toner
