Description
Grapefruit hydrosol is an aromatic water produced through the steam distillation of grapefruit peels. It’s a byproduct of the process used to extract grapefruit essential oil.
This hydrosol contains the water-soluble components of grapefruit peel, resulting in a milder and more diluted version of the properties found in grapefruit essential oil. Grapefruit hydrosol is utilized for various purposes:
- Skincare: It’s valued for its astringent properties and is often used as a facial toner. Grapefruit hydrosol may help in toning and tightening the skin, promoting a clearer complexion.
- Aromatherapy: While less potent than the essential oil, grapefruit hydrosol retains a subtle citrusy aroma that’s believed to be refreshing and uplifting. It can be used in aromatherapy as a room spray or in personal care products for its fragrance.
- Culinary Uses: Some people incorporate food-grade hydrosols into culinary preparations. Grapefruit hydrosol can add a hint of citrus flavor to beverages or dishes.
