Natural Heroes 311. Chamomile water (Roman - Organic)

What is Roman Chamomile Water (Hydrosol)?

Soothing, nourishing and calming for body and mind: that's Chamomile Water. Apply it to the skin for a nourishing and moisturizing effect or spray it on your bedding for a blissful night's sleep.

Chamomile water or hydrosol remains after making Chamomile Essential Oil, through steam distillation of Chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile). Hydrosols have a much milder effect than essential oils and therefore have a wide range of applications.

Benefits

Cares for sensitive skin

Due to the mild, nourishing effect of chamomile, Chamomile Water is ideal for red and sensitive skin. Use as a toner or place a clean cloth, soaked in chamomile water, on irritated skin for deep nourishment and hydration.

For tired eyes

Make a compress of Chamomile Water and use on tired eyes. You will notice that the redness slowly subsides and your eyelids become soft and moist again. Perfect after a long day behind your laptop.

For a calm atmosphere

Chamomile has an euphoric, intoxicating scent that relieves stress and creates peace and space for processing heavy emotions. Use the water as a room spray or spray it on your bedding for a deep, restful sleep. Tip: spray on your meditation cushion for an extra effective meditation.

How do you use it?

As a toner for your face

Chamomile water is a wonderful toner for sensitive skin. Optionally combine with other hydrosols such as Rose Water or Lemon Balm Water. Witch Hazel is also often used in toners.

In DIY care products

In water-based care products, you can often replace the water with a hydrosol. Especially products for sensitive skin get something extra by incorporating Chamomile Water.

Store Chamomile Water in the refrigerator.

What's so special about it?

The beauty of Chamomile Water is that very little plant material is needed to make it, especially in proportion to Chamomile Essential Oil. This gives Chamomile Water a mild effect that everyone can enjoy.
