Yarrow Blossom Hydrosol is all organic. As a natural antibacterial and antiseptic, yarrow gently helps to eliminate acne and prevent future blemishes. It may also be used on minor wounds for a healing disinfectant effect. Yarrow also helps to stop bleeding, so it may be used as a styptic for cuts from shaving. Yarrow has regenerative properties and can help to reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks. Yarrow can also address varicose veins when it is applied. As an anti-inflammatory, yarrow will help to reduce swelling in the skin and will also assist in the elimination of built-up fluid in the skin. Great for any skin type, especially irritated or inflamed, oily, or acne-prone skin.

Method of Application Use as a refreshing spritz as desired and during the hydration stages of your routine. It may also be used on the neck and body. This hydrosol may be used as a substitute for water in formulations. It can be used with creams, lotions, and dry or wet clay recipes.
We do preserve our hydrosols with a touch of Optiphen.
Additional Information Keep hydrosols refrigerated whenever possible. If you are desiring non-preserved hydrosols, don't hesitate to get in touch with us privately. We can offer this in bulk amounts only. We do not suggest any of our ingredients be used internally. Please do not use them in this way.
Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients
Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life. Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible
Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.
Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt
Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.

This cream is so healing to my skin. I have a sensitivity to citrus products and get a terrible rash and my face will itch. This is the only product that calms my skin.I apply this and within a few hours the rash has diminished and the itchiness is gone. The Calendula Blossom Cream has saved my skin.

Magic in a bottle!
This product has become a required staple in my skincare routine. I use it everyday on my very sensitive skin that is prone to redness and dryness. Not only is it extremely calming and soothing, but it also makes my skin look more plump and moisturized. I never want to be without this product; it has shot to the top of my "best skincare products of all time" list, next to the gentle cleansing gel. I highly recommend trying this if you have sensitive or aging skin that needs a boost of rejuvenation.

Great to have on hand if you use a lot of actives!
Sometimes, you just need a great soothing moisturizer, and this one is my new favorite! I recently graduated from using retinol to tretinoin and whoaaaaa boy. All my other creams had actives that were only making the tret burn worse. This was perfect for helping soothe my skin, and now I use it to buffer the tret!

I adore a good lavender scented product! A natural botanical even more! I use this spritzer as a bottom layer to smooth and evenly distribute some of my other outstanding GOW products. It’s a great starter and makes me smile in the mornings.

Love everything!
Every single product is top tier with clean ingredients! Definitely my favorite skincare company right now!
I just started using this and it’s the best cleansing oil I’ve ever used. I think the secret is the cromollient; I can apply it, brush my teeth, then use a damp washcloth to remove it. My face remains lightly moisturized yet cleansed and ready for a serum. And I can skip all the annoying splashing and neck strain from washing my face over the sink.
As someone with MCAS who reacts extremely easily to almost all skincare, and cannot handle fragrances or even most essential oils, I’m thrilled to have found a product that has a pleasant scent and doesn’t smell like chemicals or trigger reactions at all. Most folks probably wouldn’t notice the very light thyme/herbal scent but I find it very calming.
Hi there

I am noticing a firmer look since I started using this serum.
Cynthia, this is fantastic news! Thank you for sharing your experience.
This Progeline Serum has always been one of our best sellers so you choose well.

I've been using Clear, Brighten, and Prevent Serum for at least a year, and it has made a significant difference. My redness and acne have decreased, and when I do develop a pimple, it clears up faster. My pores seem smaller, and my acne scars are lighter. I can't say it was this product alone that did the trick, but I've been on a long skin care journey, and this has become one of my absolute favorites.
Marlene

I love the high quality of GOW’s Argan oil. It’s so great to have a place to shop where I know I’m getting the best quality of ingredients every time.
Margie, thank you for your review. This is an oil we directly import from Morrocco ourselves so there is
no middle man/woman/child. ;-) It is very nice to be able to have this confidence in our supplier.
I received this via GOW's free gift with purchase. I have mature combo skin (oily t-zone). I'm a long time GOW customer and wanted to change my routine. I was happy to see this promotes collagen production, exfoliation and saw another benefit was brightening. I sought out help and Jen quickly responded.
To those who've not used GOW's products, all I asked what was meant by brigthening. The level of detail Jen provided below only proves why I've used GOW for more than decade. I've noticed an improvement in my dark spots and how my face feels overall. I hope others chime in on this product. I was told it's discussed whether to keep it in the store. I say heck yes.
This is a great question, as "brightening" can mean a few different things in the context of skincare.
Based on the ingredients, brightening refers to a combination of actions that improve the skin's overall clarity, radiance, and evenness of tone.
Specifically, here is how the key ingredients contribute to this effect:
The Pumpkin Fruit Infusion contains natural vitamins and enzymes that gently exfoliate the skin. This process removes dull, dead skin cells, which in turn promotes cell turnover and reveals the newer, fresher skin underneath, resulting in a naturally brighter and more youthful complexion.
Skin White BLE, a plant-based brightening agent, is included specifically to address uneven skin tone. It works to reduce the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation, leading to a more radiant and uniform complexion.
Pumpkin Seed Extract and Colloidal Gold deliver rich antioxidants that help repair and protect the skin from environmental stressors that can otherwise dull the skin or contribute to discoloration over time. The reduction in inflammation from the Colloidal Gold also supports a calmer, clearer skin appearance.
Licorice root extract helps inhibit the enzyme responsible for producing melanin (tyrosinase), thereby working to reduce the appearance of dark spots and promote a more uniform, brighter complexion. It also has soothing, anti-inflammatory properties.
In short, the term brightening in this serum encapsulates both the immediate visual improvement from gentle exfoliation and the long-term benefit of evening out skin tone and protecting against environmental dullness, all of which contribute to a glowing, healthy look.
