Organic rose hip hydrosol is hydrating, anti-aging, uplifting, and rejuvenating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHydrosols make fabulous ingredients for facial toners. Why? When you wash your face with cold process soap (which is slightly alkaline) and following up with a hydrosol toner (which is slightly acidic) it gently helps rebalance the pH of the skin. Your skin's acid mantle is what keeps in moisture and blocks out toxins from the environment, so this is an important step in your skin care regimen.

The aromatic water that was steamed with the original plant material is referred to as a \"hydrosol\", which is like a much less concentrated essential oil.
