Hi there, my name is Amanda, and I’m a distiller from Northern Michigan who focuses on producing hydrosols for my botanical skincare business Flora+Fungi.

Today I’m distilling rose geranium, which might be my new favorite hydrosol in my 60L copper still from Copper Brothers, handcrafted by coppersmiths in Portugal. I’ll be doing a combination distillation where I can plant material in both the pot and the column of the still, so part of the plant material is being hydro-distilled, and part is being steam distilled.

Rose Geranium hydrosol is rich is Geraniol, citronellol, and linalool, which give it its characteristic rosy, herbaceous and slightly citrusy aroma.

Hydrosols are great for hydrating skin, balancing pH and tightening pores, but Rose Geranium hydrosol is great in particular for oily or blemish prone skin types since geraniol and citronellol have shown anti-inflammatory properties in in vitro studies helping to soothe irritation and redness.

If you’d like to learn more about distillation, my online course is now open for enrollment- follow the link in my bio.

Additionally, Copper Brothers has generously given me a discount code to share with you- use copperflora for 10% off your order. This code can be stacked with their site-wide sales as well, so if they have a 10% off sale already going this code will bump you up to 20% off your purchase.

End of summer sale! 20% off all products on our site through the end of the month -no code needed- discount applies automatically at checkout! The shop is a bit picked over but there is still plenty of Sunshine, Forest Nymph Serum and lots of hydrosols! As the season shifts I’m finally getting back into the lab restocking everything that’s currently out of stock- I’m planning on a shop update in early October once I get everything made and labels in!

Some memories from August- August was all about the flowers.

Worlds writhing worlds. Another realm exists if you just shift your perspective.

My favorite forest vegetable is back!

I’ve been dreaming all winter about all the herbs sleeping in my garden awaiting me when spring comes- and now that it’s here I’m out in the garden like a little squirrel every day gathering handfuls of herbs to incorporate in all my food and drinks, and strong herbal mocktails have been a favorite at the moment. One of the easiest ways to make an herbal mocktail is just to muddle a handful of herbs and add in a shot of water, shake with ice and add to a glass and top with tonic water (you can definitely also use soda water but I find tonic water makes a very satisfying mocktail that doesn’t just feel like and herbal soda drink). 🌱Which garden herbs are you enjoying at the moment?
