Use in formulation

• Recommended usage rate: usually 1 – 100 % depending on product type; may form part or all of the water phase.
• Soluble in: water and aqueous cosmetic systems.

• Compatible with: oil-in-water emulsions, facial toners, gels, serums, mild cleansing products, shampoos and rinse-off hair care.
• Emulsion products: incorporate into the water phase; for heated formulations it is advisable to add part of the hydrosol during the cooling phase to minimize unnecessary overheating of delicate aromatic components.
• It is recommended to add during cooling (at temperatures below 40 °C).
• Leave-on products: particularly suitable for facial mists, toners, serums, gels and creams; it is always necessary to check the final pH and microbiological stability of the finished product.
• Rinse-off products: may be used in shampoos, shower gels, foams and mild cleansing products as part of the water phase.
• Preservation: when used in your own formulation, it is necessary to assess the preservative system of the entire finished product, especially for products with a high water content.
• Formulation pH: always measure the final pH in the finished formulation and adjust according to the preservative used, active ingredients and target product type.

Safety and storage

• Intended for cosmetic use and for further processing in cosmetic formulations.
• For sensitive skin or first-time use, we recommend performing a patch test on a small area of skin.
• Avoid contamination of the contents – use clean utensils, close the container immediately after use and do not pour back raw material that has already been taken out.
• Store in a well-closed container, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat.
• Storage in a cool, dry and dark place is recommended; hydrosols are aqueous raw materials sensitive to microbial contamination.
• When manufacturing the finished cosmetic product, always verify the final pH, microbiological stability and suitability of the preservative system.
• For products intended for children, pregnant women or very sensitive skin, it is necessary to assess the suitability of the entire formulation, not only of the hydrosol itself.
