As our Aroma-Zone hydrosols are fresh, pure products with no preservatives, we strongly recommend storing them in the refrigerator and using them within 6 months of opening. When using them, make sure you always have clean hands and disinfect all utensils and bottles that come into contact with the hydrosols when preparing your homemade cosmetics. If you notice a change in appearance or smell, stop using your hydrosol.
