Description
We manufacture our essential waters, such as our Ylang Ylang EO Water, with the formulator in mind. Purposefully designed as an unfinished product, EO waters act as a scented ingredient to add soaps, lotions, or other cosmetic recipes.
For the most part, our essential waters are clear to nearly transparent, which is a benefit for those recipes where your finished product needs that type of presentation.
Customers often ask us the difference between our essential waters and our hydrosol waters. Here’s the breakdown:
- Compared to the shelf life of hydrosol waters, EO Waters hold a slightly longer shelf life.
- EO Waters are significantly cheaper per pound than hydrosol waters.
- The scent of essential oil often smells truer in EO Waters than hydrosol waters.
- EO Waters are not a finished product. They are concentrated and should be diluted into formulations. Hydrosol waters are mild and can be applied directly to the skin.
- Hydrosol waters are organically certified, whereas our EO waters are not.
- EO Waters are not steam distilled, but hydrosol waters are.
Many find this scent to be soothing and exotic. Ylang Ylang has an aroma you either love immediately or find too strong. The good news is, Ylang Ylang EO Water is diluted down. Adding it to your formulations will create a mild scent throw. Often used in mood-setting recipes designed for couples, Ylang Ylang EO Water would be great in massage blends or used in bath preparations. Many also find this scent promotes deep sleep. It also holds skin benefits for the healing of minor irritations.
