What is Lavender Hydrosol?

Lavender hydrosol is a highly effective multi-use product for a host of cleansing and therapeutic applications. 

Also known as floral water, lavender hydrosol is a natural and permanent colloidal suspension of essential lavender oil in water. Lavender hydrosol is created (and can only be created) using the same ancient process of steam distillation as is used to extract the pure essential oil from lavender flowers.

It is an ideal means of reducing the use of chemicals commonly used for so many everyday activities...

We do not add or dilute lavender hydrosol in any way, as it to be used straight from the bottle for maximum efficacy. This also means that lavender hydrosol has its own subtle, earthy fragrance with notes of lavender. It’s not as strong as others of our products, like our Lavender Linen Water, making it and ideal household cleaner for family members with sensitive noses.

Lavender hydrosol is a completely non-toxic multipurpose disinfectant and natural solvent for hard surface cleaning. It is safe to use throughout the home, from kitchen countertops to floors, bathrooms, and windows. It even works as insect repellent to deter a wide variety of bugs and pests. As a disinfectant, it is even safe to use on your body for cleaning wounds and soothing irritated skin. For pets, use it to treat hot spots and freshen coats in between bathing. It can even be used as a mouthwash for humans and pets alike!
