Pictured above is a peek at one of my latest hydrosols, made within hours of picking the plants. Who would have imagined dandelions could be transformed into a fabulously refreshing all natural skin mist?

The idea of distilling them presented itself while I was walking past a field of fresh sunny blossoms (read: the dandelions made me do it).

The result has been such a success that I have been scouring the local parks, fields, and green areas for additional fresh botanicals to try.

If you’re curious about making your own distillates/hydrosols, check the blog post links below. There’s also a blow by blow description of how I set up and use my handy little still in the post called ‘Working with an Air Still to make Hydrosols”.
