CHAMOMILE,
Roman
Anthemis
Nobilis - Certified organic, France
|
An essential hydrosol, I have used this more than any other during the
last year. I'm just amazed at its quality and properties.
Anti-inflammatory, skin calming and somewhat
astringent. Fantastic for most skin types, relaxing and calming
for skin disorders including eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, burns,
rash. Very, very nice and calming for babies and an
excellent tush spritz during diaper changes.
Use as an internal eyewash for conjunctivitis,
dry, tired, irritated or red eyes.
Use in a compress with a drop of
lavender for migraines
Mix with Neroli hydrosol for acne and
oily skin
Mix with Witch Hazel or Rose hydrosol
for mature skin
Mix with Lavender or Geranium hydrosol
for dry skin
Use for pets in the car, for
trauma, stress, thunder phobia, vet visits, teething puppies,
First Aid kit.
Very stable shelf life, refrigerated 3
years +, though I can't conceive of it not being used up before then!

HELICHRYSUM
Helichrysum
italicum - Certified Organic, Corsica |
This
hydrosol is wonderfully gentle for sensitive and mature
skin, and an amazing toner for rosacea,
psoriasis, and eczema
as well. Some like the scent, some don't. Those that
don't, mix it with another hydrosol.
The
properties of this hydrosol make it one of the most desirable.
The essential oil of Helichrysum is quite expensive but essential
for bruises. The hydrosol is also effective when used in a
compress on bruises or on achy areas, and more
affordable.
Anti-inflammatory,
analgesic, use after surgery for wounds and tissue damage, reduces
swelling and bruising. Use as a mouthwash for receding gums.
It's
often hard to keep this hydrosol in stock, we generally run out of
it off-season. It has a very stable shelf life and
should keep in the fridge for 2 years or more so you may want to
have extra on hand.

LAVENDER
Lavendula angustifolia
- USA, Organic
|
Don't expect
Lavender hydrosol to smell exactly like lavender essential oil; the
hydrosol is a deeper, stronger scent than the oil.
Lavender
hydrosol is gentle and balances pH, which makes it ideal as a toner
for every skin type on a regular basis and a perfect addition to all
face masks. Highly recommended for fragile or damaged skin and
soothing for a sunburn. Make a compress for headaches, stress.
Relaxing
and revitalizing, lavender hydrosol reduces mental fatigue, it's
also nice for calming babies and for diaper maintenance.
Skin
types: Oily, dry and mature.
Combines well with other hydrosols
Myrtle
and Lavender hydrosols
make wonderful soothing eye compresses.
Chill the hydrosol, soak cotton pads, cover eyes,
sit back with your feet up, and relax.

BEST
SELLER!
Ah! True Rose Hydrosol is the best smelling hydrosol,
just like a rose garden! Definitely not like the many imitation rose
waters that are being produced today.
Use this hydrosol for everything -- it's
balancing, uplifting, calming, cooling, rejuvenating, and makes a very
pleasant perfume alternative.
Good for hot flashes, PMS, mood swings,
menopausal symptoms. Rose hydrosol eases nervousness, anxiety, and
mental strain. Antibacterial, calming, good for First
Aid.
Mix with Lavender and Chamomile hydrosols
for a perfect all-purpose take-along remedy.
Moisturizing, Rose hydrosol is wonderful
for normal, dry, mature, sensitive, and dehydrated skin. Balancing,
it controls sebum production so is helpful for both dry and oily
skin. Helps tighten pores. Gentle on acne and skin disorders. Excellent in facial masks and when combined with other
hydrosols, especially those that need scent improvement.

psoriasis, and for delicate and mature skin. Anti-inflammatory,
balancing and calming, makes a nice aftershave spritz. A very stable shelf life, lasts refrigerated

TEA
TREE
Melaleuca alternafolia |
The scent is slightly herbal and
slightly medicinal, which is okay, because it's probably the best
hydrosol to use for first aid and general wound care.
Antiseptic, anti-fungal,
antibacterial, antiviral; this one does it all. Cleans cuts,
scrapes, wounds; use with lavender for children's boo-boo; quick
response for skin infections, use immediately for dog bite.
Excellent for skin disorders,
including psoriasis, eczema, rash. Gentle enough to use for
babies, yeast infection, deodorant spray, foot spray. The
first choice for a dog or cat's hot spot or skin rash, prevents
staph infection which is so easily spread with a pet's dirty
toenails.
An essential for First Aid
Skin type: acne
(Please do not use essential oils
on cats, use hydrosols instead)

WITCH
HAZEL
Hamamelis virginiana
|
One of nature's best astringents, there is probably no better tonic or toner for skin care than Witch Hazel Hydrosol. Heals cracked or blistered skin and is extremely good for soothing eczema and psoriasis, alone or combined with Yarrow Hydrosol.
Reduces redness, rashes, itching, swelling and scaling of skin.
Also useful after shaving as it provides mildly styptic properties and helps reduce razor burn and swelling through its cooling and soothing properties.
Witch Hazel hydrosol can be used as a facial toner after cleansing.
It is particularly beneficial for oily and problem sin as it provides a gentle yet effective alternative to commercial acne products.
For acne skin, use in combination with Healing Face Soap and Facial Oil for Acne Skin.
Avoid commercial Witch hazel as it contains a high percentage of alcohol and preservatives which can irritate skin.

interlocking fibers of this pure material, no potential irritants to
sensitive skin. Excellent for acne and rosacea skin types too. Easy to gently tear each of the squares into fourths (bag of 100), they're
quite large and last a long time when used this way. Or just
use them as is, and turn them over and inside out as they're used.
You'll absolutely love them, I promise!
I've also used them for cleaning my eyeglasses, computer screen,
and TV with no worry of scratching. I really love to use them
