Description
This hydrosol water is steamed distilled in small batches in-house, on our own specialized equipment. Because we steam in such small lots, this practically guarantees that your waters are super fresh, or steamed just for your order!
Hydrosol waters can be used in lotions, creams, bath preparations or straight on the skin. They provide mild tonic and skin cleansing properties and are generally safe for all skin types. We manufacture our waters with their therapeutic value to the skin and body in mind, we do not market our waters as a scent additive – though of course all waters will have a unique scent …. some will be significantly lighter in scent than others will – this is because of the plant material they are steamed from. If you are looking for a scent additive for your formulation that is water based, I would suggest checking out our Essential Water categories instead of hydrosol waters if you are looking for a spot on scent that matches essential oil. Essential waters are designed to add a scent “throw” into your formulations, whereas hydrosol waters are designed more for their benefits to the skin — their natural scent is just a bonus.
Native Americans knew of yucca’s diversified skin healing powers. They used it with great results for hair loss, dandruff, rheumatoid arthritis, and to treat small cuts and abrasions. If there is one plant based material that is ideal to keep in your herbal medicine cabinet, I recommend yucca as one of the top few to stock up on.
If you have danduff issues, spray this product directly onto your scalp, work into your hair and style as usual. For standard topical use, you can apply directly to your skin, or add to any water based recipe by simply replacing this as some or all of the water content in your recipe.
INCI: (unpreserved) Yucca glauca (yucca) hydrosol water.
INCI: (preserved) Yucca glauca (yucca) hydrosol water, propanediol, ethylhexyl glycerin, potassium sorbate.
Cultivation: Wildharvested. This means that this plant material was found in areas that were not from a farmed plantation, most often well away from highly populated areas, making it an extremely nill risk of being chemically treated. In our opinion wildharvested products are sometimes better than organic, because it was grown entirely by nature without the intervention of mankind.
Preservative Option: This product will arrive 100% preservative free, unless you select to add the optional preservative when ordering.
It’s our opinion that all hydrosol waters should be preserved as close to the manufacture date as possible. Hydrosol waters are fragile and if they become contaminated, mold and bacteria can lead to serious health risks. A well researched preservative is better than the risks of using/selling non-preserved ingredients.
Shelf Life: Without the preservative, they should be used within 3 months and stored in the refrigerator or a cool location. With the preservative option included, they should be used up within a year of purchase or added to a formulation which will contain further preservatives.
