Distillates, hydrosols and hydrolates are the purified water that occurs during the production of essential oils from plant material, by steam. In certain instances, such as with Witch Hazel, the plant material is not used for essential oil production, but rather for the production of the distillate itself.

An hydrosol is a water-based replica of the essence of the plant from which it was distilled. It contains all of the healing and aromatic qualities of the plant.

 

Lavender Hydrosol
INCI: Lavender flower distillate

A 50/50 blend of Lavendula intermedia and Lavendula angustifolia, this lavender hydrosol is an exclusive to Snowdrift Farm. Grown under organic conditions in Hereford, Texas, our L. intermedia is distilled from Provence, Grosso & Hidcote Giant cultivars. The L. angustifolia is distilled from Hidcote, Royal Velvet, Maillette, and Twickle Purple cultivars.

This gorgeous, aromatic water can be used neat upon the skin. Try it in a PET bottle with a fine mist closure. Or, add a small amount of Peppermint essential oil to EmulClear and combine, then dilute using lavender hydrosol.

Genuine English Rose Water, Distilled
INCI: Rosa damascena flower distillate

Available now in limited supply our rose water is distilled from the finest English Roses in England, by the grower.

Rose water is used as a skin tonic in the forms of facial cleanser and toner and can be added in place of water in lotion recipes.

Aromatically, we have never sampled another rose water as perfect as this one. Reminiscent of a midsummer's English rose garden, the heady floral overtones of nerol and geraniol are wonderful.

We are pleased to offer this rare sample of pure English rose water, while supplies last.

Witch Hazel Distillate
Hammamelis virginiana
(contains no alcohol)

According the Jeanne Rose, writing for the Aromatic Plant Project,

"Witch hazel hydrosol is the same as the water but contains no alcohol. Witch hazel leaf contains 8-10% tannin that is composed of hamamelitannin, gallotannins, and/or proanthocyanadins. Other constituents present include free gallic acid, saponins, resins, flavonoids [quercetin, kaempferol, astragalin, etc.]; 0.5% essential oil (hexenol, a-and b-ionones, safrole, sesquiterpenes, etc.); and others. Witch hazel bark contains 1-7% hamamelitannin, and smaller amounts of condensed tannins; saponins; fixed oil (0.6%); wax; 0.5% essential oil (sesquiterpenes, a phenol, etc.); and a resin. Witch hazel water contains a trace of essential oil consisting of eugenol, carvacrol, and probably similar compounds (e.g. safrole as the essential oils of leaf and bark. However, as it is a steam distillate, it does not contain tannins."

Use this hydrosol as a toner and cleansing agent. Substitute for water in lotions and other aqueous solutions. Preserved with .15% benzoic acid.
