A tall, perennial plant, Lemongrass has a subtle citrus flavor and is used in Asian cuisine but not only. The uplifting yet calming smell can give the environment a much more welcoming atmosphere, and its astringent properties makes it useful in all kinds of skin care products too, from facial toners and creams to lotions and body wash.

In addition to helping purify and reduce the presence of unwanted bacteria, microbes, or fungus, Lemongrass Hydrosol is also known to help manage minor pain and inflammation, work to ease situational depression, and help support healthy digestion.
