As Rose Quartz can be photosensitive, leaving it in the sunlight may cause your crystal to turn white. It may also turn white if it is exposed to heat. Another contributing factor could be if your Rose Quartz is exposed to impurities too. Spiritually, some people believe that Rose Quartz can turn white when the heart chakra has a big blockage that needs addressing.
