Technical Details & Test Data
- Floral Waters Manufacturing Process
- Green tea water is obtained by steam distillation. During its manufacture, the aromatic compounds contained in green tea leaves are extracted by steam distillation and then recovered by decantation. The use of steam helps extract active plant principles without changing their nature, and without organic solvents or chemical treatments. This environmentally sound process helps preserve the biological properties and olfactory wealth of floral waters. Green tea water is truly “active”. Given that water is frequently the main component in cosmetic formulations, it can be fully or partially replaced by floral water to help boost the effectiveness of active ingredients and add a delicate fragrance to your natural formula. These transparent and colorless ingredients are easy to formulate and suitable for all skin types. Available in conventional form, green tea water is also offered in organic version.
