What Are Hydrosols?
If you’ve ever used a facial mist that felt like an instant burst of hydration (without any heaviness), chances are you’ve experienced the magic of hydrosols. These botanical waters are made by steam-distilling plants, flowers, and herbs, capturing their essence in the gentlest way possible. Unlike essential oils, which are highly concentrated, hydrosols are much milder, making them perfect for daily use on the skin.
Think of them as nature’s way of delivering all the goodness of plants while soothing, hydrating, and balancing your skin without overwhelming it. From calming chamomile to refreshing rose, hydrosols offer benefits for every skin type, especially those needing a little extra love.
Are Hydrosols Safe for Sensitive Skin?
Absolutely! Because hydrosols are water-based and naturally mild, they’re a dream for sensitive skin. They deliver all the plant benefits without the risk of irritation that some essential oils can bring.
Take our Sweetheart Spritz Facial Mist, for example. It’s made with a dreamy blend of rose, vanilla, chamomile, and geranium hydrosols—all known for their calming, hydrating, and skin-loving properties. Rose is a natural humectant, meaning it helps your skin hold onto moisture. Chamomile and geranium soothe irritation and redness, while vanilla adds an antioxidant boost. It’s like a spa moment in a bottle, perfect for skin that needs a little TLC.
How to Add Hydrosols to Your Routine
Hydrosols are as versatile as they are refreshing, and there’s no wrong way to use them. Here are some of our favorite ways to incorporate them into your daily routine:
- As a toner – Spritz onto clean skin before applying your serums and moisturizers. It preps your skin and enhances absorption.
- Mid-day refresh – A few sprays of our Sweetheart Spritz will revive your skin and mood, especially in dry or hot weather.
- Makeup setting spray – Lightly mist over your finished makeup for a natural, dewy finish.
- Soothing after sun-care – If your skin’s feeling a little sun-kissed, hydrosols help cool things down.
