What Is the Difference between a Hydrosol and a Floral Water?

Highly prized for their gentleness and versatility, hydrosols and floral waters are both produced through steam distillation. The main difference between hydrosol and floral water lies in the part of the plant used. Floral water uses only the flowers, whereas hydrosol can come from various parts of the plant, such as the leaves, stems, and flowers.

How to Use Orange Blossom Hydrosol

To enjoy the benefits of orange blossom hydrosol, here’s how to incorporate it into your daily skincare routine:

  1. Gently cleanse: Start by cleansing your face with a gentle cleanser suited to your skin type.

  2. Tone: Orange Blossom Hydrosol is ideal as an ingredient in your toner recipes. Spray your homemade preparation onto clean skin on your face and neck, or apply it using a reusable cotton pad, to tone, soothe and rebalance the skin’s pH. This step adds an initial layer of hydration while preparing your skin to receive the next skincare products.

  3. Treat: While your skin is still slightly damp from your personalised Orange Blossom toner, apply a serum tailored to your skin’s needs (dark spots, dehydration, radiance) and enjoy better absorption of the active ingredients.

  4. Seal in moisture and protect: Apply a day cream or night cream suited to your skin type. The lipid film seals in the moisture from the hydrosol and serum to maintain hydration and keep skin supple and comfortable.

Precautions for Use

Before using a new product on your skin regularly, test it on a small area (the crook of your elbow or behind your ear) for 48 hours to check for redness, itching, or tingling. If you are allergic to certain citrus fruits, be sure to seek advice from a healthcare professional beforehand.

Expert Advice

Hydrolats are delicate aromatic waters. Store them in the fridge to preserve their stability. Storing them in a cool place, in a tightly sealed bottle, and away from light helps preserve the hydrolat’s fragrance and properties while providing a pleasant cooling effect when applied.
