Botanica Gaia Hydrosol Toner Blue Yarrow | Artisan Distilled | Achillea Millefolium

Achillea millefolium Hydrosol, commonly known as Yarrow Hydrosol, is a deeply restorative, balancing, and spiritually grounding botanical distillate celebrated for centuries in herbal traditions. Distilled from the feathery leaves and delicate white or blue flowers of the yarrow plant, this hydrosol captures the herb’s full spectrum of soothing, purifying, and harmonizing properties—delivered in a gentle, water-based form suitable for even the most sensitive skin types.

Yarrow, named after the legendary warrior Achilles who used the herb to soothe and protect soldiers on the battlefield, is known for its powerful yet gentle healing nature. The hydrosol offers the essence of this ancient medicinal plant without the intensity of the essential oil, making it perfect for daily skincare, emotional balance, and natural wellness rituals.

Yarrow hydrosol has a distinctive herbal, grounding scent characterized by:

Fresh, clean herbal notes

Soft green and earthy nuances

Gentle floral undertones

A purifying, cooling, and serene aromatic profile

Its aroma feels like walking through a summer meadow—calming, clarifying, and energetically cleansing.

Achillea millefolium Hydrosol is renowned for its anti-inflammatory, astringent, toning, and skin-regenerating effects. It is especially valued in skincare formulations for sensitive, acne-prone, or inflamed skin.

The hydrosol helps regulate sebum, minimize shine, and purify congested pores. Its natural antimicrobial compounds help reduce breakouts and support clearer skin.

Known for its calming properties, yarrow hydrosol reduces visible redness and soothes irritated or inflamed areas, making it ideal for rosacea, eczema-prone skin, and sensitive complexions.

Its gentle astringency helps refine the appearance of pores, tone the skin, and create a smooth, even texture.

Historically used for wound care, yarrow promotes natural skin healing and helps improve the appearance of scars, blemishes, and uneven tone.

Ideal for post-sun exposure, razor burn, or heat-reactive skin. It instantly cools while restoring hydration.

Suitable for all skin types, especially combination, oily, sensitive, and blemish-prone skin.
