Mentha piperita - Herbal Water

Peppermint hydrosol is the aromatic water produced during the steam distillation of peppermint leaves - a refreshing, cooling floral water that delivers peppermint's signature invigorating character in a much gentler, more skin-safe form than the concentrated essential oil. Its menthol content is present at levels that provide a perceptible cooling sensation without the potential for irritation that undiluted peppermint essential oil can cause.

Peppermint hydrosol is one of the most immediately refreshing and invigorating hydrosols available - used as a face mist, scalp tonic, or water phase ingredient, it delivers a cooling, clarifying sensation that is deeply satisfying and functional.

How It Works

Peppermint hydrosol's naturally occurring menthol activates TRPM8 cold receptors in the skin even at the lower concentrations present in the hydrosol, providing a gentle cooling sensation and mild vasodilation that supports micro-circulation. Its natural antimicrobial properties contribute to a balanced scalp and skin environment, and its refreshing aromatic character makes it particularly effective in summer formulas, scalp tonics, and cooling body mists.
