Description

Hydrosols, also known as Hydrolats or Floral Waters, are normally produced during the distillation of essential oils. The plant matter is distilled with water and steam and the distillate is then simply separated into an oil fraction - the essential oil, and a water fraction - the hydrosol.

The hydrosol contains water-soluble compounds found in the plant along with a minute amount of residual essential oil left over from the separation process. This hydrosol comes unpreserved, we recommend using the entire contents immediately after opening or preserving it yourself if you don't plan on using it in a short period of time. 

Bay Leaf Hydrosol results from the distillation of Bay leaf, no essential oil is obtained in this case as the water is actually the desired product. This is a 100% pure and natural, non-alcoholic distillate.

Bay leaf has purifying, stimulating and anti-inflammatory properties which could make it beneficial for both skin and hair.  It could be used as a balancing toner for combination/oily skin, as well as a calming toner for after shaving.  Plus, it may help revitalise dull and fragile hair.
