Frankincense Hydrosol

In skincare this tree resin helps improve tone & texture leaving skin feeling soft and supple.  Anti-inflammatory and antibacterial in nature, Frankincense Hydrosol can be used as a toner after cleansing. It is well suited for use prior to meditation or when you need a little on the go centering. It is energetically uplifting, grounding and clarifying.  Frankincense aligns with the planet Saturn in Celestial Herbalism, representing patience, discipline and devotion. Suitable for all skin types.  My absolute favorite! 

Size: 2oz, 10ml (1/3 oz)

What are Hydrosols?

Hydrosols are aromatic waters that contain the water/aqueous imprint of plant material, much like a hologram and can be thought of in terms of homeopathy, where the idea of dilution creates a stronger product. These are suitable for children and the elderly and do not contain any essential oils, alcohol or preservatives. Due to the nature of the product they are shelf stable up to a year (possibly longer) as hydrosols are hydrating in nature because they are water and water imparts hydration to the skin.

The application of hydrosols in the skincare is limitless and one of my favorite products in my daily skincare ritual. You can use them after cleansing the skin, as they help maintain the skin’s microbiome, keeping it intact and healthy. Often referred to as the Acid Mantle, it is the first line of defense against bacteria and pathogens. It is very important to maintain a balanced Acid Mantle which Hydrosols are excellent at doing. You can mix them with an oil cleanser to make an on the spot emulsion or with our Amazing Grains as the water component.

My favorite way to enjoy the aromatic alchemy of these beautiful waters is to shower my face with them and relish in the delight and take in the scent. Knowing that as the aroma envelops my aura, the intelligent molecules are finding their way to my cells to nourish, hydrate and protect.
