Organic Coriander Hydrosol

Uses beauty

• As an ingredient in your blends for spraying onto the skin of your face and neck after cleansing. Then apply your skincare cream or oil immediately to damp skin.

• Use with active ingredients and other natural (water-soluble) ingredients to make skin lotions. This type of lotion can be stored in the refrigerator, like pure hydrosol. To keep at room temperature, you need to add a preservative, such as Cosgard (transfer the hydrosol to a bowl to add the preservative).

• You can also add essential oils to your mixture if you wish, but you will need to add a dispersant (Solubol or Disper) as essential oils are not soluble in the aqueous phase. As above, you'll need to add a preservative to keep the lotion at room temperature.

• Incorporated in the aqueous phase of your homemade cosmetic formulas, it is ideal for making:

  • Deodorant creams, gels and lotions

  • Soothing eye care products

  • Lotions for delicate skin
