Organic Verbena Hydrosol preserved with Geogard is a cosmetic raw material obtained through steam distillation of verbena leaves and flowers, available in bulk for cosmetic laboratories and professional formulators. This guide covers what this hydrosol is, how it is obtained, and its specific cosmetic applications for skincare formulation at B2B scale.

What is Verbena Hydrosol?

Verbena Hydrosol is produced by steam distillation of the plant's leaves and flowers, a process that separates the essential oil from the resulting aromatic water. This floral water retains water-soluble compounds from verbena, offering mild, balancing properties of interest for cosmetic formulations.

To ensure stability and shelf life, this hydrosol is preserved with Geogard, an ecological preservative widely accepted in natural and certified formulation. The result is a ready-to-use aqueous base that can be incorporated into formulas without additional preservatives.
