How is white rose used according to your skin type?

The rose bush is among the most famous ornamental plants worldwide. It comes in several species and varieties, most often differentiated by the color of its petals. Among them, the white rose is particularly used in the form of cellular extract in skincare for its brightening and antioxidant properties.

The white rose in skincare, in brief.

The white rose, botanically known as Rosa alba, is a hybrid species belonging to the large Rosaceae family. It is native to the temperate and subtropical regions of the northern hemisphere. Since ancient Greek times, it has symbolized purity and innocence, when it was the flower of Aphrodite, the young goddess of beauty.

In skincare, the white rose is used in the form of hydrosol and cellular extract, also known asplant native cells. These are derived from an environmentally friendly biotechnological process that respects biodiversity. This technique aims to multiply cells from plant cell strains in a controlled environment. This process allows for the preservation of all the natural elements of the plant. Rich in essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals, the native cells thus obtained have a high molecular richness that provides them with a complementary action against other plant extracts (vegetable oils and essential oils).

Native white rose cells for dull skin.

A dull complexion is characterized by a lack of uniformity and brightness, a grayish color, and an uneven skin texture. This phenomenon is scientifically explained by an imbalance in skin renewal and an excess of dead cells accumulating on the surface. The causes can be internal (lack of sleep, poor blood circulation, skin aging process, hormonal upheaval) and external (stress, cold, pollution, smoking, poorly executed makeup removal/skin cleansing, excessive exposure to UV rays, excessive alcohol consumption...).

The native cells of white rose work on several levels to revive the complexion's radiance. Firstly, they regulate the activity of keratinocytes and melanocytes and thus correct imbalances caused by aging or inherent skin type characteristics. Furthermore, they increase cell renewal in a balanced manner. This process is essential as it allows for the removal of dead cells and strengthens the skin barrier, thanks to the keratin that keratinocytes produce. It thus induces better cellular cohesion in the superficial layers of the epidermis, resulting in better skin hydration and a stronger skin barrier. Renewing the skin brings radiance and luminosity to the complexion.

Due to these virtues, our night serum radiance contains approximately 375,000 native cells of white rose. This serum is preferably applied in the evening and works overnight to stimulate cellular renewal.

Native white rose cells for sensitive skin.

White rose native cells are also recognized for their soothing action. Indeed, they limit the synthesis of inflammation mediators released by oxidative stress, which increases the skin's tolerance threshold and reduces factors inducing irritation and redness. These plant cells work by inhibiting the activity of three inflammation mediators synthesized at the hair follicle level: two cytokines (IL1-alpha and IL-6) and a prostaglandin (PGE2), which is particularly involved in vasodilation.

Native white rose cells for hyperpigmented skin.

White rose native cells reduce the ability of melanocytes to produce melanin by inhibiting the tyrosinase enzyme. Moreover, they specifically target pigment-loaded melanocytes or atypical melanocytes. As a result, they do not interact with healthy cells. Additionally, due to their antioxidant properties, white rose native cells protect the skin from free radicals responsible for the appearance of aging signs, including brown spots.
