Product Description
Peony hydrosol is a floral water derived from the peony flower (Paeonia). It is produced through the process of steam distillation, where the plant material is steamed to release its essential oils, which then condense into a hydrosol. This aromatic water contains the gentle essence of the peony flower, offering a milder alternative to pure essential oils.
Peony hydrosol is known for its soothing, anti-inflammatory, and moisturizing properties, making it a popular ingredient in skincare products. Here are some benefits and uses:
