Guest guest Posted January 10, 2000 Report Share Posted January 10, 2000 Hi Dottie, I never would use roses for cosmetics if I'm not sure where they are from! I've heard so much about chemicals they are using in gardening, so I would be very careful. - Just my opinion.

I would like to make her some rose soaps to thank her. -- Just A Perfect Day - The Soap Factory http://www.perfectday.ch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 10, 2000 Report Share Posted January 10, 2000 Thanks to all who responded about the rose petal infusion. I have had to discard my idea of infusing these particular petals since they came from a florist and am unsure if they use pesticides or not. So, I am going to make a sachet with the petals inside and then I'll whip up a plain batch of rose soaps to go along with the sachet. I wanted to take a look at the Rose Beads that some of you suggested but the Search function in the library doesn't seem to want to work and I haven't been able to locate the recipe on my own. Could someone send it to me? Again, thanks! Dottie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
