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 into a separate,sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally, you can refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take it 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. There are some oils with a super long shelf life, like Coconut Cream and Jojoba Oil.
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 (whole or ground) should be kept in a dark, cool and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts - these are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb - root, trunk, leaves, and flowers. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - i.e., Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc. will all have a different shelf life.

Best toner!
Every other spritzer/toner/hydrosol I've tried is either too drying or left my skin feeling like it had a slick layer over it. This provides the right amount of hydration to help slide my serums and moisturizers over and is actually improving my skin. I've only been using it for a couple of weeks, but my pores seem less congested. I love this hydrosol!
This is one of my favorites too (Jen)
So glad you love it!

No sting. All soothe.
This Hydrosol is very soothing and cooling to my sensitive, reactive skin. Most toners or mists end up giving me a little stinging or irritation, especially if I leave them on for any amount of time before moving to my next step. This feels cool and comforting for as long as it sits on my skin and makes my serum glide and absorb easily. I will keep ordering.
One of Jen's favorite hydrosols :)
Glad it works so well for you!

Ladies...this is a Game Changer!
I have only been using thus hydrosol for a few days...and already notice a BIG difference! I am post-menopausal and took no Hormone Replacements. As a result, I developed a problem with getting ingrown hairs. This hydrosol smells good and is starting to turn my skin around!!
I will write another review down the road.
I am so IMPRESSED with the QUALITY of the products...THANKP YOU!
