Soothing Organic Lavender Water Calms Irritated Skin and Restless Minds

Lavender is a soothing, pure, and gentle scent that many associate with their grandmother's linen closet or aromatic potpourri blends made from dried flowers. Lavender oil is one of the most widely used essential oils in the world, but are you familiar with lavender water? This delightful and versatile organic floral water is a valuable byproduct of lavender oil production, created when essential oil is extracted from lavender flowers through steam distillation. Like the essential oil, lavender water also contains the plant's beneficial and skin-soothing active ingredients.

Flow Cosmetics' Lavender Floral Water is vegan and 100% organic. Here are some tips for using lavender water!

Toner

Lavender is naturally antimicrobial, pore-tightening, and soothing for irritated skin, making lavender water an excellent toner to use after cleansing. Floral water balances the skin's pH, refreshes, hydrates, and completes the cleansing process. Spray directly onto your face and gently pat into the skin. You can also wipe your face with a cotton pad moistened with lavender water.

Aftershave and Shaving

Many men experience skin irritation after shaving, and adding strong alcoholic aftershave to already reddened skin might not seem appealing. Spray calming, anti-irritating, and anti-inflammatory lavender water on your face after shaving!

Lavender water also effectively soothes skin after shaving legs or underarms!

Treatment Water for Irritated Scalp

Do you suffer from an itchy, flaky, or burning scalp? Lavender water immediately soothes irritated scalps. Part your hair with a comb, whether dry or damp, and spray lavender water directly onto the scalp. You can also use lavender water as a hair rinse. After washing, rinse your hair entirely with lavender water or spray floral water all over your hair. Lavender water leaves your hair wonderfully soft! If you have dandruff, you can add rosemary water or a few drops of rosemary essential oil to your hair water. Since water and oil do not mix, always remember to shake your hair water bottle well before use.

First Aid for Sunburned Skin

Lavender water makes an ideal after-sun spray to soothe the skin when stored in the fridge. A cool spray refreshes the whole body on hot days and provides excellent first aid for sunburned, red, and burning skin.

Skin Problems

Make lavender water a daily treatment product for skin prone to excess oil, itching, eczema, acne, redness, or rosacea. A staff member suffering from rosacea reported immediate relief from facial redness and irritation with lavender water.

Aromatherapy

Though lavender water boasts many amazing skincare properties, its significant aromatherapeutic effects should not be overlooked.

Lavender is perhaps the most versatile plant in aromatherapy. Lavender's scent has a calming, relaxing, and sleep-inducing effect, and due to its gentleness, it is also suitable for children.

Spray lavender water lightly in the bedroom in the evenings before bedtime to create a calm and sleep-conducive atmosphere. Lavender is an especially good room fragrance for children who have trouble falling asleep or are restless.
