Hydrosols

Natural Freshness with the Light Touch of Plants

Hydrosols bring the soft and refreshing essences of plants into your daily life. Also known as "plant waters" or "flower waters," hydrosols are one of aromatherapy's most delicate gifts. Obtained through steam distillation during essential oil production, these natural waters offer all the benefits of essential oils in a light and gentle form .

Libade's "Hydrosols" collection consists of pure hydrosols such as rose, lavender and rosemary and can be used safely in your daily care routine.

What is a Hydrosol?

Hydrosols are aromatic aqueous solutions resulting from the distillation of plants. Unlike essential oils, they contain a much lower concentration of plant components and are water-based and gentle enough to be applied directly to the skin.

Thanks to these features, it can be used safely on sensitive skin, for children and for animal-friendly aromatherapy applications .
