Pumpkin Hydrolate: Nature's Elixir for Radiant Skin and Hair

Pumpkin hydrolate, a gentle and versatile floral water derived from pumpkins, offers a wealth of benefits for both skin and hair. This naturally derived ingredient is produced in Ukraine through steam distillation, capturing the essence of the pumpkin in a pure, opalescent liquid.

Recommendations for Use:

• Perform a patch test before using pumpkin hydrolate extensively, especially if you have sensitive skin. Apply a small amount to your inner elbow and wait 24 hours for any reactions.
• Due to its natural composition, pumpkin hydrolate may exhibit slight foaming when shaken. This is normal and does not affect its quality.
• A small amount of organic sediment may also occur due to the natural origin of the raw materials. This is also normal and does not compromise the product.
• Store pumpkin hydrolate in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to preserve its quality.
• For optimal results, use pumpkin hydrolate as part of a consistent skincare routine.
