Thank you, Elise. I love scents but the chemicals in comercially produced perfumes and such irritate me. Your presentation, knowledge and generosity I truly appreciate. Thank you👑
I am so glad I found you on here. I will definitely be making this. Finally I can make my own hair, skin, and body product in the most natural way. Thank you 🤗🤗
This is all I needed. Thank you so much for sharing this ❤ I'm wondering of some preservative is added to increase the shelf life even out of refrigerator. Waiting for your response😊 Love from India ❤
Hello, love your videos. So if I wanted to make the Manuka honey floral water, would I just add some Manuka honey in the pot with the flowers that are being steamed? If so, how much Manuka honey would I add?
Aww I'm so glad, thanks Sasha! Haha, I tend to make a variety of videos around skincare so I'm always glad when I hit a topic that's genuinely helpful to someone. Thanks for watching! 😊💚
What kind of preservatives can we use if we don’t want to put it on the fridge and what percentage use. It will be so helpful that she gives that information. Thanks
You could try using lavender flowers in this recipe for a sleep pillow. Lavender comes in several varieties but English Lavender seems to produce the most fragrant oil IMO.
Can I make aloevera hydrosol using the same method and make gel using the hydrosol? Will it have the same benefits of making gel using aloevera juice(the juice of inner pulp)?
Hey Elise! Great video! I had a question! Sometimes I find that hydrosols smell like nothing! I made a batch of lemongrass hydrosol and it dosent quite smell like lemongrass :/ What did I do wrong?
Great questions, unlike with lotions and most water-based products, properly made hydrosols can last refrigerated for several months without a preservative, however they can be prone to contamination. If it's not for personal use, I would recommend adding a preservative to be on the safe side. Thanks for watching! 😊
So are you boiling the water with the flower a second time? The first boil, is to get the floral water collected in the bowl(steam) Then the second time you boil, you’re boiling the flowers and water again? And are you setting the first bowl of steam water aside? I’m following along and I feel like a step was missed or I’m not comprehending lol
Hi Elise, lovely video. I have a question though... what happens to the infused water used to boil the flowers? seen other videos where the infused water is used as the end product. Would really appreciate your feedback on this. Thank you 😊
Use that water in the bottom on your hair or skin or add lemon and honey and drink it as a tea. You can even blend it and use it as a rinse off mask. Don’t throw it out.
