Hydrosols are often easier to use than the straight essential oils for the simple reason that they are generally less irritant than pure essential oils and can be used more liberally. This makes hydrosols also easier to use with children for whom oils or oil blends are often a bit on the strong side.

In addition, hydrosols generally contain components from the plant, which are low molecular and water soluble. Turns out that some of the water soluble components have specific anti-inflammatory properties and make the hydrosol especially gentle.

Importantly, this Helichrysum (aka Everlasting) hydrosol is distilled for the purpose of producing hydrosol, it is not the by product of an essential oil distillation. This means distilling conditions are optimized to produce an especially effective hydrosol, capturing all the regenerative powers of Helichrysum italicum. This is a wonderfully soothing facial toner. Some users also apply it instead of Myrtle hydrosol to soothe the eyes.

Spray directly on skin or apply it as a compress to irritated areas for remarkable relief. In addition to its rejuvenating effects on the skin, Helichrysum hydrosol has a comforting scent with a faint sweetness of maple, curry, and fresh hay notes.

 

Blends that Pair Well with Helichrysum Hydrosol

 

Sensitive Skincare Blend
 
An everyday moisturizer for very sensitive skin.
 
It reduces inflammations and rashes, helps control allergic skin reactions, and reverses the effects of sun damage.


Brown Spots Skincare Blend
 
This precious blend is yet another one that has been created upon the request of friends and customers in search of help for dermal aging symptoms such as brown spots, hyperpigmentation, broken capillaries, and skin cell damage.


Scar Repair Blend
 
This powerful blend treats fresh and old scars. It is to be applied to the scar tissue and in cases of older scars it can take several months before seeing the desired results. However, we receive the most convincing feedback for this synergy, and the aromatherapy literature by now is full of praise and testimonials for this oil.


Shingles Blend
 
Shingles is one of the areas where essential oil blends work like a charm. The most amazing testimonials are available on the success of this blend. Especially with elderly patients this treatment, more often than not, offers stunning relief from the excruciating pain and even more so offers renewed quality of life to patients living with the continuous threat of yet another painful outbreak. Experience has it that once a patient is able to successfully control an outbreak, the frequency and severity of subsequent outbreaks are reduced drastically. 


Pain, Injury, and Bruise Blends
 
We have created these blends over the years for friends, family, and clients and continue to offer them, since they have provided relief for so many people. The formulas are based on French Medical Aromatherapy protocols along with techniques we have developed over the past 43 years.
