Have you purchased hydrosols, distillates or floral waters, but now you aren't sure what to do with them? Herbal distillates are useful for all types of applications. In cosmetic formulations, hydrosols can be used to replace a portion or all of the water content of a formula. They are particularly useful in the formulation of creams and lotions.
Some common uses for herbal distillates are below, but there are sure to be many others.
- Aftershave
- Facial toner
- Face moisturizer
- Body splash
- Makeup remover
- Replacement for the water component in skincare formulas
- Wetting agent for clay masques
- Fresher for sheets and towels
- Ironing spray
- Room freshener
- Baby products
- Air purifier or disinfectant
- Setting spray for makeup
- Hair refresher
- Cooling after-sun spray
- Foot soaks
- Animal hot-spots
