Coming Up Roses

Throughout history no other flower has been celebrated, cherished and integrated into daily life more so than the ROSE.
At the core of our Coming Up Roses Collection is the use of 100% pure and natural ingredients derived from the petals of Rosa Damascena. A rare class of rose that is considered the preeminent oil bearing rose and is highly regarded for its medicinal properties and exquisite aroma. This uniquely rich and intense rose, long cultivated by European monasteries for healing purposes, is found successfully grown in just one very small region of the world.

The roses used in our collection are organically grown and hand picked in the "Valley of the Roses", a province of Bulgaria renowned for producing the finest roses on earth. It requires more than 60,000 roses, picked in the early hours of dawn as the delicate petals of Rosa Damascena unfold, to produce just one ounce of the essential oil used throughout the collection.

Coming Up Roses is created in collaboration with an exclusive laboratory, utilizing a time honored multiple distillation method. This secret process captures the most pure and vital essential oils of Rosa Damascena, preserving its effectiveness as a natural cell rejuvenator until the moment it is applied to the skin.

By effectively harnessing the power of Rosa Damascena, the Coming Up Roses Collection delivers nature’s most beneficial ingredient to skin. The essential oils of Rosa Damascena contain over 300 organic compounds that work on a molecular level to balance and tone every skin type. In addition, Rosa Damascena is a natural antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and astringent agent that facilitates the rapid absorption of these nutrients into the skin. The wonderful effects of restoration almost instantly follow. It balances sebum secretions in oily and acne prone skin and reverses the damage to capillaries commonly associated with mature and dry skin. It naturally gives each skin type specifically what is needed while slowing down the effects of aging and promoting an overall sense of well being.

There is no other flower more recognizable, or with an aroma more evocative than that of the rose. The rich fragrance and essential oils of Rosa Damascena have served in holistic rituals for many past, present and future civilizations to come. The Rosa Damascena—the heart of the Coming Up Roses Collection—ultimately symbolizes innocence, love, passion, desire, luxury and the ideal aesthetic.
