Rose Hydrosol

AKA: Rose Water

Location: France

Benefits: Recognized for its mildly astringent and anti-inflammatory properties. Rose hydrosol is a gentle, hydrating, floral water that helps balance the skin's pH. It can reduce redness and provides a refreshing sensory experience.

HYDROSOL = PLANT WATER

It's made by distilling fresh plant materials. The vapors turn into a gentle, watery solution, filled with phytonutrients. The end product is water-based but does not need a preservative to stay fresh. Not all hydrosols are created equally. Commercial manufacturers take a hot and fast approach, while small batch producers take a low and slow approach. Creating hydrosols is an intimate, all-day process that requires low-sustained heat, fresh plant material, and spring water to extract the maximum nutrients.
