Overview

Our Catnip Hydrolat is a gentle, steam-distilled floral water crafted from the leaves and flowering tops of Nepeta cataria, grown without synthetic chemicals or pesticides. Traditionally revered for its calming and skin-soothing properties, this unique hydrosol is a hidden gem in both skincare and aromatherapy rituals.

Naturally high in nepetalactone, catnip’s active compound, this hydrolat helps reduce inflammation, calm breakouts, and gently tone the skin—making it ideal for sensitive, acne-prone, or irritated complexions. It also offers mild astringent and antimicrobial benefits while delivering a soft, green, herbaceous scent that promotes emotional ease.

Uses:

  • Mist onto clean skin as a toner or throughout the day for a refreshing, calming boost

  • Add to clay masks or compresses for a cooling, anti-inflammatory effect

  • Use as a linen or pillow spray to relax the senses before sleep

  • A gentle bug-repellent mist due to its natural insect-repelling compounds

Suitable for: All skin types, especially oily, irritated, or blemish-prone skin.

Storage: Keep refrigerated or stored in a cool, dark place. Use within 6 months of opening for best freshness.

Dig Deeper
Hydrolats are pure floral waters from steam distilled flowering herbs; transforming the botanical resilience of plants into liquid form. The final product is lightly saturated with beneficial plant compounds and a naturally light aroma. The result is a lightly aromatic distillate with a slight verdant nuttiness, which carries the sensory and chemical properties of the plant distilled. Hydrolats are slightly acidic, with a Ph. that ranges from 4.8-5.9, depending on your botanical material. The final product is a pure, plant derived distillate, which has light aroma and chemical activity with a wide range of traditional uses. We like to use our hydrolats as a gentle skin toner to cleanse and help balance skin pH. 
Our skin has a naturally acidic pH, creating an “acid mantle” that regulates healthy production of sweat and fatty acids. Production of these components creates a protective veil, helping your skin fight of unwanted microbes and surface contaminants. Well balanced pH keep skin alive and protecting itself. Hydrolats facilitate this organic process, keeping skin breathing as it should. It is a solution provided by nature’s chemistry, coaxed along by the farmers’ hands.
