Organic Chamomile Floral Water, 100 ml

The floral water from Anthemis nobilis, known as Roman chamomile, is a gentle aqueous distillate obtained by steam distillation of the flowers. During distillation, the steam carries the naturally occurring volatile aromatic components of the plant; after cooling, an essential oil and an aqueous phase – the hydrolat – are formed. This contains the water-soluble and trace aromatic components of chamomile, which makes it particularly suitable for cosmetics intended for sensitive, reddened, reactive or uncomfortable skin.
Roman chamomile is valued in cosmetic formulations for its soothing, softening and skin-conditioning character. Compared to the essential oil, the hydrolat is significantly milder, aqueous and easy to incorporate into toners, facial mists, creams, gels or hair care products. When used correctly, it helps support skin comfort without a greasy feel and without overloading the formulation.

Use in formulation

• Soluble in and fully miscible with the water phase of cosmetic formulations.
• Compatible with common moisturizing components such as glycerin, betaine, panthenol, allantoin, hyaluronic acid or aloe vera juice.
• Miscible with other hydrolats, for example lavender, rose, cornflower or lemon balm floral waters.
• May replace part or all of the water phase in the formula, depending on the desired sensorial profile and character of the product.
• In emulsions, it is incorporated into the water phase; for heat-sensitive formulations, it is advisable to add it only at the final stage of production.
• It is recommended to add it during the cooling phase (at a temperature below 40 °C).
• In anhydrous products it is not used directly, since it is a water-based raw material; a suitable emulsifying or solubilizing system is required for its incorporation.
• In the finished product, it is necessary to take into account the overall preservation system, target pH and microbiological stability of the formulation.
