Witch Hazel Distillate Hydrosol

Distillate water is a bi-product of the steam distillation process used during the extraction of essential oils from plant sources. It is the condensate water left behind.  While the plant undergoes this process; a portion of its’ aromatic and healing components are absorbed by the steam. The condensation produced once the steam has returned to the liquid state is then collected resulting in a water packed full of active ingredients as well as a light scent of, in this case, Witch Hazel.
