If you spend time outdoors, hike or camp, play sports, garden, do DIY, or interact with pets – scratches, cuts, and bruises are almost inevitable.
Incorporating hydrolats (hydrosols) into your wound care and scar treatment routine can make a real difference.
Hydrolats offer unique benefits at every stage of skin healing:
– Gently cleanse dirty wounds while reducing the risk of infection.
– Speed up the absorption of healing oils, ointments, and balms.
– Promote skin regeneration.
– Aid in calming inflammation.
– Help even out skin tone and minimize scarring.
Try applying one of these hydrolats (or a blend):
- Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia)
- Immortelle / Helichrysum (Helichrysum italicum)
- Roman Chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile)
- Rose (Rosa damascena, Rosa centifolia, Rosa canina)
- Comfrey (Symphytum officinale)
- Yarrow (Achillea millefolium)
- Calendula (Calendula officinalis)
- Carrot Seed (Daucus carota)
- Frankincense (Boswellia sacra)
- Plantain (Plantago lanceolata or Plantago major)
Beyond their gentle support for skin repair, hydrolats carry soothing aromas that uplift the spirit, ease the mind, and bring a quiet sense of calm – so essential to the healing process.
So next time you deal with a wound, don’t forget the aromatic waters.
