Essenciagua Peppermint Hydrosol is a pure, organic aromatic water artisanally distilled in France from freshly harvested flowering tops of Mentha × piperita. Its crisp, mentholated aroma provides an immediate sensation of freshness, helping to awaken the senses, clear the mind and revitalise both face and body.

Traditionally valued for digestive comfort, peppermint hydrosol can be diluted in water or enjoyed after meals as part of a refreshing digestive ritual. Its fresh, invigorating flavour also makes it a versatile botanical ingredient for sparkling water, iced tea, cocktails, desserts and other culinary preparations.

Applied as a facial or body mist, it refreshes and tones the skin, making it especially pleasant during hot weather, after exercise or whenever the body feels overheated. Its cooling character can also provide welcome comfort during hot flashes and for tired, heavy-feeling legs.

Peppermint hydrosol is also traditionally used as a cool compress for the forehead, temples or tired muscles. Its clear, minty aroma makes it an excellent companion during travel, mentally demanding days and periods of fatigue. Used as a diluted mouth rinse, it leaves the mouth feeling clean and the breath naturally fresh.

Essenciagua uses a 1:1 plant-to-hydrosol ratio. Approximately 250 g of fresh peppermint is distilled to produce one 250 ml bottle of hydrosol. This high plant ratio creates an aromatic water with a particularly expressive fragrance and flavour.

Peppermint (Mentha piperita) is a perennial plant reaching up to 80 cm in height, widely cultivated across Europe and Asia, particularly in lowland regions. Throughout history, peppermint has been cherished for its refreshing and aromatic qualities.

In ancient times, Chinese traditions praised various mint species for their calming and soothing properties, while Hippocrates regarded mint as stimulating, and Pliny noted its comforting qualities. Today, peppermint remains one of the most beloved herbal plants, commonly enjoyed in herbal teas alongside verbena and linden.

Peppermint hydrosol is traditionally valued for its refreshing and uplifting aroma. Lightly misting the face or enjoying it as a botanical mouth spray offers a gentle, cooling sensation -ideal for moments when you seek a refreshing lift, especially during travel.

Sammansättning

100% organic Peppermint Hydrosol obtained through the steam distillation of fresh flowering tops of Mentha × piperita.

Hydrosols are created in the same process as essential oils - through gentle steam distillation. When steam passes through the fresh plant material (for example, rose petals), it carries with it both the essential oil and water-soluble aromatic molecules from the plant.

Once cooled, the essential oil naturally separates and rises to the surface, while the aromatic water underneath is the hydrosol. This hydrosol is pure spring water enriched with the plant’s own active compounds - like a delicate imprint of the whole plant.The distillation process is slow and careful, allowing the hydrosol to gather all the lighter and heavier aromatic notes so that it becomes a complete, true reflection of the plant. Afterward, it’s gently filtered and bottled - nothing else is added. No preservatives, no alcohol, no synthetic fragrances.

This is why a plant hydrosol is not just ‘flavored water,’ but a living extract full of the plant’s natural vibrancy, carrying both therapeutic and sensory qualities.

Topp 3 fördelar med att använda hydrosoler

Milda och säkra för alla hudtyper:
Hydrosoler är milda och icke-irriterande, vilket gör dem lämpliga även för den mest känsliga huden. De bevarar växtens essens i en mindre koncentrerad form än eteriska oljor, och erbjuder lugnande, återfuktande och sammandragande fördelar utan risk för irritation.

Mångsidig användning:
Hydrosoler kan användas på många olika sätt – som ansiktsvatten, i aromaterapi, som linnespray, för sårvård eller som ingrediens i hemmagjorda hudvårdsprodukter. Deras mångsidighet sträcker sig även till kulinarisk användning, där livsmedelsklassade hydrosoler kan smaksätta drycker, desserter och maträtter.

Terapeutiska egenskaper:
Trots sin milda natur har hydrosoler terapeutiska egenskaper som kan gynna sinne, kropp och själ. Beroende på vilken växt de kommer från kan de ha antiinflammatoriska, antiseptiska, lugnande eller upplyftande effekter, bland annat, vilket bidrar till ett ökat välbefinnande.

Giftfria, utan syntetiska tillsatser – Livsmedelsklassade hydrosoler

Hur använder man hydrosoler?

I Suzanne Catty's fantastiska bok "Hydrosols the Next Aromatherapy" förklarar hon utförligt alla fördelar och de olika sätten att använda hydrosoler. Jag rekommenderar verkligen att läsa hennes bok!

Här är vad hon skriver:

"Hydrosoler är milda men effektiva. De kan användas outspädda utan problem för de flesta topiska tillämpningar. På vissa sätt kan du behandla dem som vatten, till exempel för att tvätta ett sår eller en skråma, men det är viktigt att komma ihåg att de skiljer sig från vatten på många sätt. Hydrosoler innehåller en del eteriska oljor, så vilken du än använder kommer att innehålla några, men inte alla, av oljans egenskaper, och du kommer att få några av de fördelar som du skulle få om du använde den respektive oljan.

Hydrosoler har ett mycket annorlunda pH än vatten; de är alltid antingen något sura, som lavendel, eller mycket sura, som cistros. Cistros, på grund av sin extrema surhet, är mycket sammandragande och kommer att dra ihop cellerna där den appliceras. Detta betyder att den är användbar för att stoppa blödning; den är också utmärkt för att strama upp porer och minska rynkor.

Lavendel, med ett nästan neutralt pH, kan vara ett bättre val om ett sår innehåller smuts eller var, eftersom den lättare kan skölja bort skräp från såret, då cellerna förblir öppna och blödningen hjälper till att rengöra såret."

Sätt att använda hydrosoler

1. Spraya outspädd hydrosol över hela kroppen som en snabb uppfräschning, för att kyla ner kroppstemperaturen eller stimulera cirkulationen, för att minska påverkan och skador från solens exponering, som en deodorant eller som en subtil parfym.

2. Använd outspädda hydrosoler för att göra dina egna våtservetter, för både vuxnas och barns personliga hygien (Romersk kamomill är perfekt för spädbarn och barn).

3. Använd som handspray för att förhindra spridning av bakterier under förkylningssäsongen, eller när du reser och exponeras för betydligt fler bakterier än hemma.

4. Behandla hudåkommor som eksem, dermatit, psoriasis och klåda från giftig murgröna. Använd flera små appliceringar per dag, en allmän regel är minst tre och upp till tolv små lokala appliceringar per dag, varje dag tills symtomen försvinner.

5. Hydrosoler kan kraftigt lindra klåda, smärta och rodnad i huden vid till exempel eksem. De kan bromsa fjällningsprocessen och påskynda läkningen.

Det är mycket viktigt att du köper ekologiska hydrosoler utan konserveringsmedel!
