Lemon Myrtle is renowned for its refreshing, revitalizing, and soothing properties. At Solstice Skinfood, we use organic Lemon Myrtle Hydrosol — a gentle, aromatic floral water derived from the steam distillation of Lemon Myrtle leaves — to provide hydration, balance, and a naturally uplifting experience for the skin.

What is Lemon Myrtle Hydrosol?

Lemon Myrtle Hydrosol is the water-based by-product of steam distilling Lemon Myrtle essential oil. It retains many of the plant’s beneficial compounds, including antioxidants, flavonoids, and gentle antibacterial constituents, but in a mild, water-soluble form suitable for daily use.

Unlike essential oil, the hydrosol is light, non-irritating, and safe for all skin types, making it ideal for sensitive, combination, or stressed skin.

Key Benefits for Skin

Balances & Refreshes: Helps calm and soothe skin while maintaining comfort
Gentle Hydration: Provides light moisture for soft, supple skin
Supports Skin Barrier: Protects and strengthens delicate skin
Aromatic Uplift: The natural citrus-woody scent refreshes the senses and promotes wellbeing
Suitable for All Skin Types: Perfect for sensitive, combination, or stressed skin

Sensory Experience

Lemon Myrtle Hydrosol has a fresh, citrusy, and lightly herbaceous aroma. Its lightweight, water-like texture absorbs quickly, leaving skin feeling refreshed, hydrated, and balanced.

It’s ideal for facial mists, toners, masks, or as the water phase in creams and serums, offering both functional and sensory benefits.
