Biodynamic Hydrosol Face Toner
Cucumber Hydrosol is a product of the steam distillation of cucumber fruits.
Because the cucumber fruit is mostly water, the cucumber hydrosol has a very similar clear, fresh, crisp scent to its fruity counterpart. With a refreshing cucumber hydrosol you can make body splashes and toners, or you can add it to lotions and natural room fresheners. Cucumber is known to be a great skin conditioner, so it makes a lovely refreshing facial spray, and a soothing and cooling spray as an aftersun.
Cucumber Hydrosol can be used in soothing and cooling skin care applications. You can use Cucumber Hydrosol as a refreshing, yet calming facial mist. Cucumber Hydrosol can be combined with other hydrosols or used alone. It can also be used as the water replacement in skin and hair care formulas.
