Chamomile Floral Spray

February 26, 2020

What is Chamomile Floral Spray?

My Floral spray are Plant waters, also known as Hydrolats/ Hydrolsol. They have been used since ancient times for aromatherapy, and are considered the FIRST aromatherapy! Hydrolats are the process of steam distilling plants. The end result is Distilled with with plant properties and essential oil. Plant waters are technically considered Medicine water. Chamomile is one of my favorite plants to distill.

Chamomile hydrosol has calming properties, which can help with sleeping difficulties. Chamomile is also a cardiac calmative, so it can ease migraines.

For skincare, chamomile water is excellent to calm the itching of eczema and psoriasis. It soothes flaky, itchy skin, rashes and acne. Chamomile also soothes the mucous membranes, which may safely be treated with this relaxing anti- inflammatory water. Chamomile water is antiinflammatory and anti- infectious, making it ideal for calming inflamed and irritated skin conditions such as rosacea, burns, sunburn and razor rash.

Chamomile water is purifying and cicatrizant, suitable for all skin types. It helps to give the right balance to dry, irritated and fragile skins and calms tired eyes.

Traditionally, chamomile water has also been used for baby care in general, to calm when teething and promote sleep.

My Chamomile Floral water is pure, undiluted Chamomile Hydrosol. It is versatile and can be used in all parts of your day.
