Description
Seilich hydrosols flower water is made from plants grown in their sustainable wildflower meadow and distilled in small batches using a traditional copper still.
Hydrosols contain small amounts of essential oils as well as water soluble botanical compounds. They are gentle, safe, easy-to-use and can be used neat on the skin. They may be used in many ways (e.g. as a facial toner, face mist, body spray, room mist, energy mist, linen spray, pillow spray, skin treatment or foot soak) depending on their properties (see below).
Each hydrosol flower water will only be available for a short window of time after it has been distilled.
All Seilich hydrosol are certified Wildlife Friendly due to the nature enhancing farming practices we use. Although Seilich uses organic growing practices they are not yet certified organic. They distil the hydrosols in small batches using a traditional copper still.
