Lavender Aromatic Hydrosol

Lavender Hydrosol, also known as Lavender Water, is the water-based byproduct from the steam distillation process we use to extract our essential oils. In steam distillation the lavender stems are placed in a column that sits above a pot of boiling water.  The steam travels up into the column, through the stems and captures the oils released from the buds.  As the steam cools back to a liquid there are two components: the essential oil from the plant, and the water based hydrosol which contains small particles of the lavender oil.

Lavender Hydrosol has a softer, gentler potency than the concentrated essential oil, but still provides the same benefits.  Since Hydrosol is water based it is much more versatile to use.

Skincare: After shower spray and face toner.  Lavender Hydrosol is a wonderful product to hydrate and tone your skin.  Also works as an anti-inflammatory to sooth sunburns or irritated skin.  (This is also sold as Lavender Water Body Mist).

Household: General household cleaner.  No need to dilute; use this as a streak free window cleaner, countertop cleaner, floor cleaner.  Chemical free antiseptic, naturally antibacterial and antifungal, and leaves your home smelling fresh with the calming effect of lavender.
