The Rose - celebrated by poets, desired by lovers and transformed by us into effective natural cosmetics.
Like no other medicinal plant, it symbolizes the fundamental characteristics of Dr. Hauschka cosmetics and their active ingredients.
The rose symbolizes as no other medicinal plant the fundamental characteristics of Dr. Hauschka cosmetics and their active ingredients. To see it, one can hardly imagine that the rose is so steeped in contradictions. Yet that's exactly what it is. It is powerful and robust and yet extremely delicate and fragile, with its stem bristling with thorns and its velvety petals, its fragrance both sweet and bitter. In spite of all its opposite characteristics, the rose symbolizes the most perfect harmony. This faculty of balancing ceaspecificities, as contradictory as they are, makes the rose so precious in cosmetology.
At Dr. Hauschka, they use rose in most of their products, makeup creams, but at different dosages. The precious rose essential oil in particular plays a central role in Dr. Hauschka's products. On the one hand for its sensual fragrance and on the other hand, for its conservative effect. Rose water, which is another key ingredient of their beauty care, is also derived from the manufacture of rose oil. In addition, they use aqueous extracts of fresh flowers in the composition of their products. These are preserved in alcohol thanks to the process developed by Dr. Rudolf Hauschka.
Dr. Hauschka products whose main component is the rose:
Day Cream with Rose and Rose Day Cream Light
A classic adopted by many Hollywood stars. It was one of the first Dr. Hauschka products designed by Elisabeth Sigmund. Elisabeth's grandmother, Anastasia, had the recipe for Heavenly Cream. This cream with rose water and almond oil was deemed to be the secret beauty of Empress Sissi. She has served as a model for the current Rose Day Cream whose formulation is however much richer. Today, it takes about thirty roses to produce a tube of Rose Day Cream. Those who find the Day Cream too rich are often very satisfied with her little sister, the Rose Day Cream Light. It also has a balancing and harmonizing effect with a lighter texture.
