is gulab jal a toner - #43768
I am dealing with really oily skin and lately, I’ve been trying to find something that can help balance it out. A friend mentioned that is gulab jal a toner? Initially, I thought toners were just those fancy products you see everywhere, but then I read some stuff about how gulab jal (rose water) can be used for skin. Like, I’ve tried different lotions and potions and nothing seems to work effectively. My face gets shiny within a couple of hours after washing it, and it feels kinda gross. I’ve been using rose water after cleansing my face, and honestly, I’m not sure if it’s doing much. Do you think is gulab jal a toner, or is that just what people say to justify using it? I spritz it on my face a few times a day hoping it helps, but I’m wondering if I should be more serious about a proper toner. Also, I read conflicting opinions online — some say it helps with acne and others say it does nothing. Is it worth sticking with gulab jal as a toner if it’s natural, or should I explore more traditional toners? Any advice would be super helpful because I'm tired of this oily mess!

Gulab jal or rose water is indeed often used as a natural toner in skincare routines. Its traditional use in Ayurveda and modern skincare alike stems from its ability to help balance the skin’s pH, tighten pores, and reduce excess oil, which makes it beneficial for people with oily skin like yourself. But, whether it’s effective depends on how it interacts with your skin.
Rose water’s acidic nature helps maintain the skin’s natural acidity while its anti-inflammatory properties can soothe irritation and redness. Several people with oily and acne-prone skin have found it helpful in mitigating these issues. Spritzing it onto clean skin after washing might assist in controlling oiliness and offering a slight natural hydration without making your skin feel greasy. But, if it doesn’t seem that effective or you notice no significant changes, you may consider integrating other elements into your routine.
Consider using rose water not alone, but alongside an approach that targets excess sebum production. Ayurvedic principles suggest cooling down the Pitta dosha, responsible for excessive oil production, through diet and lifestyle changes. Integrating fresh fruits and vegetables, avoiding spicy foods, and drinking lots of water can help. Ensure to include non-comedogenic products in your routine that do not block pores, and use a fuller’s earth mask (Multani mitti) weekly which can naturally absorb oil and clear toxins.
It’s essential to understand that everyone’s skin type is unique. If traditional toners with specific ingredients like salicylic acid cater more effectively to your needs without irritation and balance your skin better than rose water, it may be worth exploring them. Also, since the aim is to balance and not over-dry the skin, always pay attention to how your skin responds. It’s all about finding that sweet spot where your skin feels comfortable and balanced.
