Advantages of Hydrosols

Most skincare brands rely on water (aqua) as the primary ingredient in products. At Natural Zest, we take a different approach.

We use nutrient-rich plant oils and hydrosols as the base across our range, delivering the full spectrum of beneficial plant compounds directly to your skin. Our commitment is to provide exceptional skincare that nourishes, balances, and restores healthy skin.

Hydrosols, created through the steam distillation process used to extract essential oils, are a pure co-product, capturing the gentle, therapeutic properties of plants in their most natural form.

Discover the extraordinary benefits of Neroli for sensitive and problem-prone skin.

This soothing botanical offers cooling and calming properties, making it ideal for delicate skin. Its natural astringent qualities help reduce excess sebum, minimize the appearance of large pores, and gently firm and tighten the skin. Beyond skin benefits, Neroli has a calming aroma that eases stress, a known trigger for skin issues, helping you achieve both skin and sensory balance.
To ensure purity and safety, any preservatives we use are derived from natural sources, and every Natural Zest product is free from harmful chemicals, prioritizing your health and the environment.

Skin benefits of neroli hydrosol vs water (aqua) as a main ingredient in skincare

  • Unlike water, Neroli hydrosol is enriched with natural bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, rich in antioxidants that shield skin from oxidative stress and support a youthful appearance.

    Esters contribute to calming and skin conditioning, while aldehydes contain antimicrobial properties to support a healthy skin microbiome and reduce breakouts, to name just a few advantages.

  • Additionally, the aromatherapeutic qualities of Neroli hydrosol promote relaxation and a sense of calm, elevating both skincare results and the sensory experience. This ingredient forms the base in all our creams, toners, and mist sprays and this is before we’ve added any other amazing beneficial ingredients!

    These powerful components provide a range of skin benefits and enhanced product performance by amplifying the effectiveness of other ingredients in the product.
