Compounds with a higher vaporisationpoint will remain behind and will include many of the water soluble plant pigments and flavonoids. Botanicalhydrosols have uses as flavourings and in skin care. They are also called floral water, herbal water or essentialwater. Herbal distillates are produced in the same way as essential oils. However, the essential oil will float tothe top of the distillate where it is removed, leaving behind the watery distillate which is valued as an importantcommodity as this substance still contains essential oils in a skin friendly dilution. Hydrosols are widely used incosmetics and toiletries. A pH between 5-6 makes them suitable for use as facial toners.16
