Hydrosols are the waters that are recovered after the steam distillation of essential oils. A hydrosol contains not only the water that was used in distillation but also small amounts of essential oil that could not be separated out in the final stage of the extraction process, as well as non-volatile plant compounds that were extracted by the steam. Hydrosols are also called Flower Waters. They make a beautiful and fully natural face and body mist, facial toner, linen spray, after-shave spray, diffuser water, base for tea, and so much more.
NEROLI
(Citrus aurantium)
Neroli Hydrosol has a complex, bitter-sweet, citrusy floral aroma that is fresh, vibrant and cleansing. Use to clarify and refresh spaces as a room mist, pour into your diffuser, add as the water element in emulsions or use as a simple face spray that is sure to lift spirits.
Neroli Hydrosol’s actions have been described as calming and grounding. While Neroli Hydrosol is considered to be very hydrating it is also said to have astringent qualities that may be too much for those with dry skin. Our beautiful Neroli hydrosol is distilled in Lebanon from the blossoms of the bitter orange tree (Citrus aurantium var. amara).
Please Note: Hydrosols have a shorter shelf life than essential oils and therefore we make it a practice to source in small batches and replenish our stock often. To extend the shelf life of your Roman Chamomile Hydrosol, we recommend refrigerating or storing in a cool dark area. Plus, spritzing a Hydrosol that has been chilled can feel extra refreshing!
Beware: There are companies out there that make fake hydrosols. They just add a few drops of essential oils or even fragrance oil to water. This is not a hydrosol. Ours are 100% pure, created during the essential oil distillation process.
Available in 2 oz bottle with spray top.
