Affirmation:
“I am safe. I am whole. I am shielded in nature’s wisdom.”
With every mist, I return to my center. I call back my energy. I trust my inner healer.
Distillation Process: During steam distillation, yarrow's volatile compounds are released, and then cooled and collected as the hydrolat. The essential oils, which contain the concentrated chamazulene, often separate and float on top of the hydrolat.
Hydrosol's Blue Tint: Although the essential oil is a deep blue, the hydrolat itself will have a lighter, often baby-blue or slight blue tint, indicating the presence of some essential oil emulsified within it.
We gently separate the volatile essential oils during distillation, leaving behind a water-based extract that is gentler on the skin, ideal for sensitive individuals. This makes our hydrolat a more soothing, energetically pure expression of the plant—perfect for topical use, ritual misting, or emotional support.

A Rare Seasonal Distillate for Skin & Spirit

Lovingly distilled in small seasonal batches, this Yarrow Hydrolat is a treasured gift from the mountains of the Pacific Northwest. Crafted from Achillea millefolium at peak bloom and distilled fresh in a traditional copper alembic with local spring water, this hydrolat captures the vibrant intelligence of yarrow—one of the most revered healing plants in Western herbalism.

As the hydrolat emerges drip-by-drip, it often carries a striking blue tint thanks to the presence of azulene, a naturally occurring anti-inflammatory compound found in the essential oil. However, this color is delicate and may fade over time, evolving into a soft yellow within a month or so. This natural transformation is a hallmark of a true artisan hydrolat—free from preservatives, stabilized dyes, or artificial enhancement. The shift in hue does not diminish the hydrolat’s therapeutic benefits but reflects the living nature of the plant.

About Our Hydrolats

Hydrolats (also known as hydrosols) are the soul of the plant in water form—gentle yet potent botanical distillates crafted through traditional steam distillation. Unlike mass-produced “floral waters,” our hydrolats are free from synthetic fragrances and faithfully reflect the vitality and intelligence of the plant.

From flower to bottle, each drop is infused with the care of the land, the still, and the artisan hands who coax its essence into being.
