Handling and storage specifications
Melon Hydrosol 100 ml is supplied as Cucumis Melo Fruit Water obtained by distillation of melon fruit from Ukraine. Retail pack suits trial batches before bulk orders. OWN SECTION: Hydrosols & Floral Waters lists similar distilled waters for formulators. After opening keep tightly closed at 0 to +8 degrees Celsius away from light. Product may foam on shaking and show minor organic sediment. Shelf life until 03.2028. Always perform a patch test on inner elbow before full use in new formulas.
Appearance and solubility
Clear liquid, fully soluble in water. No pH data supplied; test each batch. Add at cool-down phase below 40 degrees Celsius to retain aromatic notes. The liquid remains stable when stored correctly without exposure to direct sunlight.
Formulation guidance for B2B
Use 1-100% depending on final product. Compatible with glycerin and other water-soluble ingredients. Verify stability after 24 hours in finished emulsions. Formulators often combine it with other floral waters for balanced scent profiles in leave-on products.
Sample mist formulation
Melon Hydrosol 100 ml 55%, Distilled water 35%, Glycerin 7%, Preservative 3%. Blend cold, adjust to 100% total. Suitable for face and body mists. product: Melon Hydrosol 1 L supports scaling to production volumes. The finished mist provides a light refreshing sensation during application.
Wholesale batch considerations
For production batches verify compatibility with other hydrosols. section: Hydrosols Bulk provides scaling options for labs and small factories. Input percentages vary by product type from 5% in hair rinses to 70% in toners. Each new batch requires documentation of sensory and visual checks.
Ingredient compatibility notes
This hydrosol mixes well with plant extracts and humectants without altering emulsion viscosity. Test combinations for phase separation over 48 hours prior to commercial production. It performs reliably in cold-process methods used by small-scale manufacturers.
Batch testing procedures
Before scaling any formula conduct small-batch trials of 500 ml to observe clarity, scent retention and stability over two weeks at room temperature. Record any changes in appearance or odor daily. This step ensures consistent quality across multiple production runs and helps identify optimal percentages for each product category such as creams, rinses or sprays.
