This potent master-distilled German Chamomile Hydrosol is the ultimate cooler, soother, and reliever for reactive, inflamed, or acneic skin. These tiny and delicate white flowers are a skin game-changer by reducing redness, itching or irritation instantly. German Chamomile is balancing to the skin’s microbiome and is an ally for acne, breakouts and congested skin. The aroma of this hydrosol is a combination of honey, grasses, hay and candied floral notes.

Laurel's German Chamomile Hydrosol comes from a farm in the Pacific Northwest that we have worked with for over a decade. After harvesting fresh flowers in the early morning from their own farm, they put them through an all-day distillation process in authentic copper stills. This ingredient has long been the highlight of both Laurel's Support Cleanser and our Hydrating Elixir II, and its an exciting moment to finally be sharing it with you in its purest form.

SKIN: This hydrosol has a notable phytochemical called Azulene, which is responsible for much of its calming and cooling abilities. Apply this Hydrosol to inflamed or cystic acne to reduce swelling and redness. On the body, use this on any irritated skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, rashes, burns, blisters or bug bites. This hydrosol is very safe and well suited to children of all ages.

BODY: Chamomile is a nervine with anti-spasmodic and analgesic properties, which means it calms and soothes the nerves when they are under duress. In addition to treating all of the full body skin concerns above, try misting on the body anywhere nerve pain is experienced.
