Description
Black pepper hydrosol is a product of the distillation of black peppers. It has a similar scent to the essential oil/plant – with a spicy, alluring scent. It contains minute amounts of the essential oil as well as other hydrophilic aromatic compounds and plants active; Therefore, it offers the same benefits as the essential oil but at a much lesser concentration. When used as a base, it promotes better absorption of nutrients in the skin. It helps stimulate hair growth and blood circulation. Suitable for all skin types.
Cosmetic Benefits:
• Skin circulation booster – promotes a healthy, radiant glow.
• Toning & revitalizing – refreshes tired, dull, or congested skin.
• Mild warming effect – helps relax tense facial muscles when used in mists or compresses.
• Hair & scalp care – supports scalp circulation, which may promote healthier-looking hair.
• Refreshing spray – works as a natural facial or body mist with a gentle spicy aroma.
Cosmetic Uses:
• Ingredient in facial mists, toners, and aftershave sprays
• Added to lotions, creams, and serums for circulation-boosting effect
• Hair tonics and scalp sprays
• Aromatic addition in spa and massage treatments
• Natural room or linen sprays with a warming scent
Hydrosols contain the water-soluble components of the plant, offering unique therapeutic properties while being less intense than essential oils.
PLEASE NOTE: Our range of Hydrosols, Hydrolats or Floral Waters are 100% pure and free from preservatives, alcohol and emulsifiers. These are the most genuine form of hydrosols (obtained by steam distillation of the plant parts): no infusion, no blend of essential oil and water; and no condensed water. These superior quality hydrosols are 3 to 5 times more concentrated when compared to other commercial grade hydrosols available in the market.
Our hydrosols are specifically distilled for the hydrosol, not produced as a by-product or even a co-product. These hydrosols are distilled using fresh plant material allowing us to capture not just all the volatile components of the plant, but more importantly, the cellular water from the living plant. This cellular water is usually lost under the conventional high pressurised steam runs for essential oils, or by using dried plant material. It is this cellular water, imbued with nutritious minerals, phytosterols, antioxidants, and countless other natural botanical chemicals, that imparts the hydrosol with the water-soluble aromatic and therapeutic properties of the plant.
Our exquisitely scented hydrosols therefore have a different make-up to their essential oil counterpart though they retain a small fraction of essential oil compounds (about 0.05 to 0.2 grams per litre) – mostly the gentler, more hydrophilic aromatic esters and alcohols. This is one of the reasons that makes hydrosols quite safe for children, the elderly, and anybody with pronounced sensitivities.
Our hydrosols are very versatile in use as:
