Description

A hydrolate is a floral water resulting from the distillation of essential oils. 

It contains trace molecules of essential oils, the low concentration of which increases its serviceability.  Wildly varying product qualities are available on the market today and in most cases the concentration is not specified due to extremely low content.

Our hydrolates have been selected for maximum concentration and are distilled from wild and/or organic plants chiefly grown in France. In order to ensure an exceptional concentration we process on average 1 Kg of fresh plant matter to obtain 1 Lt of hydrolate. 

Use & Special precautions

There are varied applications for this product that can be used daily, seasonally or every once and a while as it strikes your fancy.

Hydrolates are used:

- In tonic lotions, at any time of the day: after removing make-up or a facial mask, spray the hydrolate on your face and let it absorb into your skin for a few moments. You can then apply your usual facial treatment.

- In spray mists, to soothe your skin: a soothing and relaxing mist, ideal in the summer, on the beach or elsewhere. 

- In body lotions: a real luxury after bathing or showering.

- In hair sprays: promotes shiny, healthy hair for post shampoo care.

- In aftershave lotions: hydrolates are highly valued because of their astringent, antiseptic and healing properties as well as for the subtlety of their perfume (lavender, verbena or chamomile hydrolates).

- Orally (quality organic products): 1 tsp per cup of hot water 3 times a day, before or after meals, or 1 tablespoon in a litre of water to drink throughout of the day. For 20 day cures a 200 ml bottle is sufficient.

Floral waters are highly sought after for their therapeutic benefits and their high-energy value. 

Unlike essential oils, hydrolates do not contain any caustic or corrosive elements and are therefore well tolerated and particularly appreciated by people who may be especially sensitive or fragile.
