Cool, green, and kissed by mountain air. This small-batch face mist is co-distilled in our copper alembic from fresh wild-foraged fireweed, plus locally grown organic cucumber and peppermint. The result is an uplifting, minty-green cooling toner that feels instantly reviving — a perfect companion for warm days, post-sun care, and moments when you need a breath of clarity.
Why You’ll Love It
- Plant-to-bottle craft: Distilled drop-by-drop within hours of harvest.
- Local and wild: Organic farm-grown cucumber & peppermint, high-elevation wild-foraged fireweed gathered by hand.
- True hydrosol: Not just scented water — contains trace aromatic molecules and plant essences captured in gentle, skin-loving form.
- Seasonal and limited: This summer distillation is available only when the plants can be collected in season.
What is a Hydrosol?
When fresh plants are slowly distilled, their water-soluble aromatic compounds travel with steam into the condenser, emerging as a lightly acidic botanical water infused with the plant’s unique aromatic “signature.” Unlike essential oils, hydrosols are gentle, balanced, and ready to use directly on skin, hair, and surroundings — perfect for a hydrating face mist or natural toner.
Scent & Feel
- Aroma: Crisp cucumber greens, bright mint, soft herbal-floral fireweed.
- Sensation: A fine, cool mist that leaves skin feeling refreshed, toned, and hydrated.
How to Use
- Facial toner & cooling face mist: Mist generously over face after cleansing; press into skin with clean hands.
- Post-sun refresher: Keep in the fridge for an extra-cooling boost on warm days.
- Hair & scalp spray: Freshens between washes and after workouts.
- Space mist: Adds a clean, herbal freshness to rooms or linens.
