Advantages

Earthoil Essentialwaters comprise a unique range of certified organic products with many advantages:

• High concentration of essential oil in water (as high as 2% concentration), and so Earthoil Essentialwaters are higher in oil concentration, and stronger in aroma, than a conventional hydrosol.
• Hydrosols, being by-products of the steam distillation of essential oils, carry an incomplete version of the essential oil. Earthoil Essential waters capture the true and complete aroma of the essential oil.
• Earthoil Essentialwaters can be based upon any essential oil – not only steam-distilled oils. Thus even pressed oils – citrus oils, for example – can be the base of Earthoil Essentialwaters. Imagine the refreshing character of a grapefruit, or a lemon Essentialwater!
• Earthoil Essential water products can be prepared at any time – not only when available for distillation, as with a hydrosol! Earthoil Essentialwaters can be ordered as required, thus avoiding large inventories, and maximizing storage life.
• Marketing opportunities are exciting too – any organic essential oil can be used to produce an Essentialwater, with the product then carrying both EEC and NOP certification.
• The higher concentration of essential oil in an Essentialwater product enhances its stability by comparison with a conventional hydrosol (as the essential oil imparts a preservative property).

Uses

Earthoil Essentialwaters will suit any end-use requiring an organic source of aroma in a water-based product – cosmetic and toiletry products, spa products, fragrances and air-fresheners. Earthoil Essentialwaters can directly replace hydrosols, and be superior in formulations such as:

• natural, organic room fresheners
• facial mists
• spa, aromatherapy and massage products
• organic and conventional cosmetics
• organic and conventional fragrances

The possibilities for Earthoil Essentialwaters are endless!
