What is a hydrosol?

A real aromatic hydrosol contains the active properties of pure plant essences, suspended in H ₂ O, by steam distillation. Hydrolats provide hydration and toning of botanical origin with healing properties for the face, skin and hair.

THE Pranarom hydrosols are microfiltered and UV filtered for extended shelf life. Due to their delicate nature, please store them in a cool, dry place, hydrosols should not be stored in the refrigerator. They prefer a cool, stable environment and fluctuating temperatures disturb them. If you refrigerate yours or if they are exposed to extreme temperatures, bring your hydrosols to room temperature gradually and gently.

Hydrosols are the water by-product harvested during the distillation of essential oils. Each essential oil creates a hydrosol. That hydrosols are a compound of water with added essential oils is a myth, they have different properties than their essential oil counterparts.

THE lavender flowers used by Pranarom are grown in Northern California in certified organic soil. The flowers are harvested when ripe and immediately introduced into the distillation chamber (a large sieve) which will be filled with several kilos of lavender. The distillation process is a delicate process and consists of passing water vapor through a tank filled with aromatic plants. Propelled by low pressure, the water vapor rises through the herbs infusing itself with the lavender and is channeled outwards by cooling coils. As the steam condenses and cools, the essential oil separates and floats to the surface of the water, leaving us with organic lavender hydrosol and essential oil. The hydrosol is then collected, UV filtered and ready to be used.

Hydrosols moisturize, tone and refresh the skin naturally, frequently used in facial lotion to tone, balance the complexion and refresh the skin on hot days or during hot flashes; especially if they have been stored in the fridge! You can also use it to treat your hair. Hydrosols are extremely gentle, so safe for pregnant women, children and pets.

A hydrosol is a great base for making your own spray blends for: bedroom, bathroom, car, laundry water, yoga mat cleaner, sunscreen, aftershave, insect repellent and the list goes on and on. .
