Products with coconut, our soaps and cleopatras bath tea have coconut in their ingredients. So if you have an allergy, please let us know. This way we can suggest products that don’t contain these ingredients.

We want to help you avoid products that your allergic to. We have plans in the future to have bath teas without coconut and are looking into soaps that use a different lathering agent than coconut.

Hydrosol uses?

wood nymph apothecary
Feeding the Senses

How can hydrosols be used? Hydrosol waters work great in lotions, creams, bath preparations, or straight on the skin. They provide mild tonic and skin cleansing properties and are generally safe for all skin types. Thus we manufacture our waters with their therapeutic value to the skin in mind. We, however, do not market our waters as scent additives. Though, of course, all hydrosols will have a unique scent, but some will be significantly lighter than others due to the essential oil content that each herb holds.  by Organic Creations

Many people are used to hearing about essential oils or floral waters. Yet if you were to ask people what a hydrosol is? You might get a blank stare from people. Herbalists and people who like to create botanicals are usually more familiar with with this type of product.

It opens up the door to explore more options in terms of of skin care and cosmetics. Now you have more of an idea, what the hydrosol uses are?

If you’ve been wondering how to use hydrosols. Now you have a basic idea of where to start. If you like to create your own lotions, creams or soaps it will allow you to experiment with different combinations. There are so many different hydrosols to work with.

Because the hydrosols are lighter scents than the essential oils. It will allow you to combine different ingredients til you find the blend that works best for you.

Wishing you the best,

History of Frankincense

Feeding the Senses

According to the history of frankincense, there are five species of frankincense suitable for incense. Boswellia carterii or B. freraeana. Also,

B. carterii (or B. sacra, and called olibanum or dragon’s blood). Some people who use incense may be familiar with dragon’s blood but might not have realized it was a form of frankincense. Additionally, B. frereana and B. thurifera grow in northern Somalia. B. papyrifera grows in Ethiopia and Sudan and produces a transparent, oily resin. Another species B. serrata is Indian frankincense.

Dragon’s Blood:

Dragon’s blood which is referenced has been known to clear negative energy out of space. So it’s not surprising that it’s actually part of the frankincense family.

Incense:

When used as an incense, it has a telling smell if there is still some residue left in the space or room you are clearing. You will smell a pleasant smell when the negative entity is no longer present. It will tend to have a powdery floral smell.

Greek Writer:

According to the Greek writer Herodotus reported in the 5th century BC that frankincense trees were guarded by winged serpents of small size and various colors. 

Burning incense was used in weddings, childbirth and funerals. It has also been used in aromatherapy and perfumery.

It’s popularity dates back to 1500 B.C. The smoke from frankincense is said to calm one’s mood.

Uses:

Frankincense has many uses, it can help to reduce stress, fight germs and bacteria, help with skin, detox. The bible mentions frankincense for many good reasons.

Cosmetics:

It was also used in cosmetics as a resin that comes from the frankincense tree. Eyeliner is one such product.

This is a very brief list. Please click on the links to learn more.

In conclusion:

Frankincense also has anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties. Which is one of the reasons we carry it. That’s it for the history of frankincense.

Sandalwood Hydrosol Water

Wood Nymph Apothecary

Sandalwood Hydrosol Water has many benefits. It is moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, grounding, sensitive skin soother and anti-infectious.

How to use: body mist, eczema or psoriasis compress. This can also be used as a room spray.

Anti-aging : Sandalwood is one of the best anti-aging ingredients out there. It is great for mature skin types, nourishes skin, fights free radicals, prevents premature aging, and smoothens fine lines. Before you apply your moisturizer, first mist a bit of sandalwood on it, mix up then rub it on your face.

Eczema or Psoriasis Compress : Soak a cotton round with sandalwood hydrosol and compress the affected area. This promotes healing of the raw skin underneath so it is less painful when the top layers peel away.

Hydrosol Waters:

Hydrosol waters can be used in lotions, creams, bath preparations or straight on the skin. They provide mild tonic and skin cleansing properties and are generally safe for all skin types.

Therapeutic Value:

We manufacture our waters with their therapeutic value to the skin and body in mind, we do not market our waters as a scent additive – though of course all waters will have a unique scent …. some will be significantly lighter in scent than others will – this is because of the plant material they are steamed from.

Scent additive:

If you are looking for a scent additive for your formulation that is water based, I would suggest checking out our Essential Water categories instead of hydrosol waters if you are looking for a spot on scent that matches essential oil.

Essential waters:

Essential waters are designed to add a scent “throw” into your formulations, whereas hydrosol waters are designed more for their benefits to the skin — their natural scent is just a bonus.

Sandalwood:

Sandalwood is known for its mild cleansing action and of course for its typical scent that is earthy, spicy and slightly sweet. Though women love the scent too, it does make a great additive for products designed for and targeted to men.

Steam extracted:

Since this product is steam extracted, the scent is much lighter than straight sandalwood oil, which means some people who generally don’t like the scent of sandalwood might enjoy this lighter version. https://organic-creations.com/product/sandalwood-hydrosol-water/

November Newsletter

Organic and Natural products
Feeding the Senses

In the November newsletter, we embrace the bath season as it is kicking into top gear. Baths are about relaxing and kicking back and enjoying a soak in the tub. Bath teas bring the luxury of the spices that scent the water and tickle your nose with the aromatic scents.

Hydrosols are another level of luxury, whether they’re in your bath or on your body as you exit the tub or shower. They give a lighter scent then essential oil. They aren’t as concentrated. So, if you don’t want a real strong scent these might be the perfect option for you.

Our organic frankincense powder can be added to the tub or in your cosmetic products. It helps with circulation and skin issues.

We have choices of three organic soaps too. Cherry almond, oatmeal milk and honey, dead sea mud scrub. One or all of these, will help you with your skin and bath care needs.

Bags, we have muslin and sisal; the muslin bag is for bath teas, so your tub doesn’t get clogged, and the sisal bag is perfect for drying your soap or for scrubbing off dead skin.

We hope you enjoyed our November Newsletter at Wood Nymph Apothecary.
