    Rose Quartz also has a bit of a history. Dating back as far as 7000 BC, it is said that Ancient Egyptian women used Rose Quartz face masks to clear their complexions and prevent wrinkles. Today, it can still be found in many facial products, such as face masks and facial rollers to boost circulation and stimulate cells, giving one's face a healthy, rosy glow. There is also some evidence that Rose Quartz helps release increased oxygen and give your skin better elasticity to provide a firmer look and feel. If nothing else, applying Rose Quartz to your face can help improve the absorption of skincare products, allowing for deeper penetration of those products.

   Surprisingly, this soft hearted stone registers a 7 on the Mohs hardness scale. Formed when magma rich in water, silica, oxygen and other elements intrude into the surrounding rocks and slowly cool, it is found all over the world including Brazil, Namibia, India, Sweden and the United States. So not only is it a wonderful stone to use in jewelry as it is durable and scratch resistant, but its ready availability makes it popular among craftsmen.

Did I mention that it is really pretty?

   Whether you wish to give as a gift to someone you love, use as a meditation or sleep aid, or pair with your favorite outfit, this stone is not one to pass by without serious consideration.
