Purify Apothecary’s rose is a high-performance botanical ingredient derived from Apothecary’s rose plant. This ingredient targets stressed, irritated, and dull skin by soothing, purifying, and stimulating the skin cells, for a revitalized, healthy-looking complexion.

The apothecary’s rose, or rose of Provins, is an ancient variety known since the Middle Ages for its soothing, toning, and astringent properties. Introduced to Europe in the 13th century and cultivated in Provins, it became a symbol of the town and a key ingredient in traditional remedies and skincare. Today, it continues to inspire natural beauty formulas, preserving its rich botanical heritage.
