What is a hydrolate?

It is one of the two products obtained during steam distillation.

During this process, the volatile compounds of the plant are carried by the water vapor to the condenser. The essential oil, which is lighter than water, floats on its surface. The water underneath is called floral water or hydrolate. The hydrolate has a very low concentration of aromatic components, around 0.5%, it is therefore much less active than the essential oil, for this reason it can be used completely safely on all skin types.

Hydrolates are excellent tonics useful for refreshing the skin, removing impurities and useful decongestants.

Our hydrolates are used as an aqueous base in all solid soaps in the line.


Properties and practical advice:

Lavender hydrolate calms, soothes, refreshes and decongests the skin.

It is also used for its calming and relaxing properties on the nervous system, it can be sprayed on the pillow before going to sleep to promote relaxation.


Mixed with shampoo, or as a lotion on the hair, it acts directly from the roots, rebalancing oily scalp.

Excellent as a lotion after makeup remover.



It can also be used for our four-legged friends, to clean and polish their coat and to keep fleas and mosquitoes away.
