A: Natural hydrosols can vary slightly due to seasonal shifts, growing conditions, and distillation nuances. Q: Can I use this as the water phase in DIY skincare? A: Yes, it can be used as a botanical water in water-based formulations, but preservative-free products require careful hygiene and an appropriate preservation system for multi-use formulas.
