The dangers of homemade hydrosol

The dangers of homemade hydrosols are usually skin allergies, and may not have any therapeutic effect, resulting in noticeable dryness of the skin.

1. Allergy: It is made by mixing plants and essential oils. It is used directly for facial application. For people with allergic constitution, it is likely to cause erythema and papules on the skin. There is obvious itching during the attack. To avoid affecting the skin, you need to follow the doctor's instructions and take oral anti-allergic drugs, such as loratadine and cetirizine. The hydrosol has the effect of repairing the skin and maintaining moisturizing. There is a high possibility of bacterial and viral contamination in the process of making it yourself. If the correct method is not used to treat the allergic symptoms, it will last for a long time, which is likely to cause spongy itching and edema on the skin.

2. Dry skin: The water left over from the distillation and extraction of essential oils is relatively natural and pure, with a light fragrance. It does not contain too much alcohol and preservatives, and is very helpful for skin conditioning. Homemade products cannot achieve effective pure ingredients and will not improve the face, causing a lot of water in the dermis to evaporate. It may also cause dry skin, and over time there will be obvious peeling. If you choose rose hydrosol, it can directly penetrate into the cells, and the hydrating effect will not stay on the skin surface.
