What are hydrosols
Hydrosol is the aromatic water (Floral Waters) that remains after producing an essential oil via steam or water distillation.
The plant matter used in essential oil distillation imparts the hydrosol with water-soluble aromatic and therapeutic properties of the plant.
Unlike essential oils that should be diluted prior to application to the skin, hydrosols are much gentler than their essential oil counterparts and can generally be used directly on the skin without further dilution.
Hydrosols can be used in place of water creating natural fragrances, lotion, creams, facial toners, and other skincare products.
