La description
Flower Waters (Hydrosols) Hydrosols, also known as floral waters,
hydro florates. A hydrosol is the condensate water that is left
over after the process of extracting an essential oil by water or
steam distillation. This aromatic water contains the very essence
of everything that was contained within the plant when it was still
alive and growing. When essential oils are extracted by steam
distillation, some of the aromatic and healing principles held
within the plant are not captured during the process. These
important components do not escape into another dimension or
disappear into a black hole, fortunately they are absorbed by the
steam or water that is used to extract the oil. This steam
eventually condenses back into water, and now contains small
quantities of essential oil plus many of the water-soluble
(hydrophilic) parts of the plant. Now supercharged with more active
principles than the essential oil from the plant, this ready to use
product offers a safe and convenient way to deliver a wide range of
therapeutic and cosmetic benefits. Technically described as a
distillate water, this type of fragrant co-product has been more
recently referred to in aromatherapy as a hydrosol, hydrolate or
hydrolat. all distillate waters were collectively known as 'flower
waters' or 'floral waters', and the availability was usually
restricted to just a popular few such as lavender, rose and orange
flower. The historic term of floral water is now seriously outdated
since every essential oil extracted by a process of water or steam
distillation produces a distillate water as a co-product. There are
now a much larger selection of distillate waters produced from
herbs, needles, leaves, woods, roots, barks and seeds widely
available. uses Hydrosols are highly versatile and can be used for
personal care and around the house. In skincare, Rose, Orange
Blossom (Neroli) and Lavender hydrosols are great for hydrating dry
skin and cooling hot and sensitized skin. If you have been out in
the sun too long and got burned, Lavender hydrosol is soothing and
comforting as well as healing. Used in the final rinse after
shampooing hydrosols help to condition hair and add a shine. We
know of no better remedy for puffy, dark circles under the eyes
than Chamomile hydrosol. Just soak two cotton wool pads with the
hydrosol and cover each eye for around *0 minutes for an immediate
and dramatic reduction in puffiness. Regular use can help diminish
those dreaded dark circles too During the summer hydrosols are
perfect to use as a cooling body mist, and the most cooling of all
is Peppermint. Make sure you take some with you to use on holidays,
on the beach and even to cool those aching tootsies when you are
out shopping! Hydrosols help to revitalise you when your energies
are beginning to flag, and a few sprays onto a tissue makes a handy
wet-wipe for all sorts of applications including babies and grubby
children. To calm a restless baby try adding a few tablespoons of
Lavender or Chamomile hydrosol into their bathwater. This can be
especially beneficial if your baby is suffering from nappy rash or
eczema, because the soothing properties of these hydrosols help
calm the irritation and speed up the healing process. Hydrosols are
quite safe to use on young children, and since they only contain a
small amount of essential oil they do not need diluting much
further except as above when using with very young babies.
Hydrosols such as Rose or Neroli can be added to the final rinse
water in your washing cycle as well as used as a fragrant linen
spray whilst ironing since they smell much nicer than their
synthetic counterparts. Around the house, hydrosols are great to
freshen the air instead of using aerosols which of course are
harmful to the environment.
