Re: Rose Oil
Nothing jeez about it
Anyhow, I was reading reviews of this face cream made by Dabur, an Indian cosmetics manufacturer, claiming the advantages of rose oil and extracts used in this particular Gulabari Facial Moisturizing cream…that’s why I asked. It is supposed to be very hydrating along with having antiseptic properties. Dunno.
