Tarragon Hydrosol

Tarragon hydrosol is the fragrant, water-based byproduct of steam-distilling tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus) leaves to extract its essential oil. It has a delicate herbal aroma and offers several benefits, both in aromatherapy and for personal care.

Uses of Tarragon Hydrosol:

1. Aromatherapy: Tarragon hydrosol is known for its calming properties. It can help relieve stress, promote relaxation, and even ease minor sleep disturbances.

2. Skin Care: It has soothing properties, making it useful for sensitive skin. It can be applied topically to help calm irritation, redness, and minor skin issues.

3. Culinary: Some people use tarragon hydrosol in cooking, as it has a mild, herbal flavor that can complement dishes that use tarragon.

4. Natural Cleaning: Due to its antimicrobial properties, tarragon hydrosol can also be used in cleaning products.

5. Hair Care: It can be used in hair care products to refresh the scalp and promote healthier hair growth.

As a hydrosol, tarragon's aroma is much lighter and more subtle compared to its essential oil counterpart. It can be applied directly to the skin or used as a mist for a gentle fragrance.
