The difference between essential oils, floral waters, and hydrosols. The by-product of the distillation of essential oils is hydrosol, which contains no alcohol and no other additives, and some are even claimed to be drunk after boiling. The other is made by adding essential oil and water, in order to fuse the two ingredients, alcohol or other alcohol solvents need to be added, so the smell is relatively strong, and it can not be drunk, which is generally called flower water.
But you will find that in many, many places, the two concepts of flower water and hydrosol are completely confused, and for the face, the former is a safer choice (the latter has alcohol). The so-called "hydrosol" refers to the water left over from the distillation and extraction process of essential oils, which is a by-product of essential oils. In the process of distillation of plant essential oils, the oil and water will be separated, however, in the distilled essential oils, there will be a little bit of water, because the density is different, the essential oils will float on the top, and the water will precipitate below, which is called "hydrosol".
Hydrosol contains trace amounts of "acids" and "lipids", and its chemical structure is different from that of ordinary pure water, which is very helpful for body conditioning. Therefore, hydrosol is not flower water, in addition to containing trace amounts of essential oils, hydrosol also contains many water-soluble substances in plants. This hydrosol scent is mostly based on water-soluble substances of plants, but it does not have the unique aroma of essential oils, on the contrary, it resembles the taste of various minerals in the human blood.
The roots of the plant extract the mineral nutrients of the earth and the spring water of the earth and transport them to the stems, branches, leaves and other parts to grow and thrive, and the substance that mixes the mineral nutrients of the earth and the spring water of the ground is the water-soluble substance of the plant. This also shows that some extracts must be added with water from time to time during transportation, because once the water is lost, the mineral nutrients will also be lost, and the extracted hydrosol will be reduced by one point in terms of efficacy. Hydrosols with 100% plant water-soluble substances contain mineral nutrients that essential oils lack.
Therefore, hydrosols and essential oils have similarities and differences, and each has its own strengths. Essential oils in aromatherapy can indeed be taken internally. However, it is better to adjust the physique in the way of "hydrosol".
For example, people with oily skin can drink lavender hydrosol because lavender hydrosol can promote blood circulation, relax emotions, calm and reduce inflammation, and keep the skin in a stable condition. In addition, hydrosols also have the function of beauty moisturizing. You can use it as a toner every day, which can not only moisturize and hydrate, but also improve the problem**; You can use it to sprinkle on a cotton pad to apply to your face, in addition to calming**, it can also relieve** fatigue at the end of the day; Or you can also use it as toilet water, perfume, spray it on the pillow, quilt, wardrobe, air conditioning environment, fresh air, refresh the mind, etc.; It can even be used in a blend of ** and moisturizing creams.
There are many ways to experience the wonderful sensation of hydrosol. Different hydrosols have their own unique effects.
