It is especially recommended for the care of reddened skin with rosacea and visible capillaries. In cosmetics, it has toning, soothing, and anti-inflammatory properties.
How to use
- In pure form: can be used as a facial toner or as a refreshing aromatic spray. After cleansing, spray onto the skin. While the skin is still damp, apply your favorite serum, cream, or oil.
- For homemade masks: mix your preferred clay with the hydrosol until the desired consistency is reached. You can add half a teaspoon of oil and a few drops of active ingredients (e.g., hyaluronic acid, grapefruit oil, or collagen).
- As an ingredient in DIY cosmetics: use as the water phase in creams, lotions, serums, or toners.
- As an addition to scrubs: thanks to its content of ascorbic and glycolic acids, it helps remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, refresh, and brighten the complexion.
Recommended concentration in cosmetics: up to 100%, which means it can be used undiluted.
