Uses & benefits of cistus hydrosol

Skincare benefits: Cistus Hydrosol helps hydrate the skin by plumping up the skin to keep it healthy and moisturized by locking water in the skin cells.

It also helps promote cell regeneration which aids skin repair to help smoothen and tighten skin and erase fine lines, crow's feet and wrinkles which makes it an amazing product to incorporate into an anti-aging skincare regimen.

It also helps minimize pores to prevent excess oiliness and when used on clean skin before moisturization it helps firm and tone the skin to improve the effect of the moisturizer or serum used.
