Floral waters in cosmetics

As consumers become more conscious about what they put in and on their bodies, natural ingredients have gained significant popularity in the beauty industry. One such ingredient that has been making a comeback in recent years is floral waters.

Floral waters, also known as hydrosols or herbal distillates, are produced through the steam distillation of flowers and other plant materials. They contain all of the beneficial properties of the original plant, but in a gentler and milder form compared to essential oils.

The benefits of using floral waters in cosmetics

One of the main advantages of using floral waters in cosmetics is their natural origin. Unlike many synthetic ingredients found in traditional skincare products, floral waters are derived directly from plants and do not contain any harsh chemicals or additives. This makes them a great choice for those with sensitive skin or those looking to switch to more natural and sustainable beauty products.

Apart from their gentle nature, floral waters also offer a wide range of benefits for the skin. They are known for their anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, and antioxidant properties, making them suitable for all skin types. Whether you have dry, oily, or combination skin, there is a floral water that can address your specific skin concerns.

Incorporating floral waters into your skincare routine

Floral waters can be used in various ways in your skincare routine depending on your preference. They can be applied directly onto the skin as toners or facial mists. Their hydrating and balancing properties make them great for prepping the skin before applying moisturizer or makeup. They can also be used as a natural alternative to harsher makeup removers.

For those looking for a more indulgent experience, floral waters can also be added to bathwater or used as a refreshing body mist. Some people even use them as hair rinses to add shine and promote healthier hair growth.

Tips and tricks for floral waters

  • Cleanser: Many floral waters, such as rose and lavender, have gentle cleansing properties. Use them as a natural cleanser, applying them with a cotton pad to remove makeup, dirt and impurities from the skin.
  • Toner: Floral waters, such as chamomile, cornflower and witch hazel, work well as tonics. They help balance the skin's pH-levels, tighten pores and prepare the skin for the next steps in your skincare routine.
  • Moisturising cream: Lime, neroli and lemon balm floral waters have moisturising properties that can hydrate and soothe dry or irritated skin. Mix them with a few drops of carrier oil, such as jojoba or almond oil, for a nourishing, natural moisturizer.
  • Face Mist: Keep a spray bottle filled with your favorite floral water, such as rose or peppermint, to refresh and moisturize your skin throughout the day. This is especially helpful during hot or dry weather conditions.
  • Mask: Combine floral waters such as immortelle, lavender or rosemary with ingredients such as kaolin, beige or green clay to create custom face masks tailored to your skin type and concerns.
  • Spot treatment: Some floral waters, such as chamomile and lavender, have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties that can help soothe acne-prone skin. Apply them directly to blemishes using a cotton pad for a gentle, natural topical treatment.
