Découvrez notre Cornflower Hydrolat 100% Organic and Handcrafted
The Cornflower (Centaura Cyanus) is a delicate flower, emblematic of our countryside, whose intensely blue petals adorn cereal fields. This annual plant, once a companion to harvests, has long been appreciated for its simple beauty and gentleness. At Essenciagua, we carefully distill the fresh flowering tops of Cornflower, sourced from organic farming in Occitania, to capture the pure essence and delicacy of this plant.
This hydrolat is an invitation to gentleness for sensitive and delicate skin. Its subtle, fresh, and slightly vegetal scent evokes the purity of summer fields, offering a soothing sensation of freshness. It can be used as a delicate facial mist, bringing a touch of well-being and comfort.

La Plante Cornflower
Partie de la plante: Flowering Summit
Origine: France
To guarantee the quality of our Cornflower Hydrolat, we have chosen to distill the fresh plant ourselves.
Originally from the Middle East, the cornflower is a typical messicolous plant (hence its name “Harvest cornflower”) that has spread to all temperate regions of the world as cereal crops have progressed. This plant, which grows up to 50 cm high in rich, light soils, is gradually disappearing, destroyed by herbicides… The cornflower is also a melliferous plant that brings a touch of color to our gardens.
Among its many nicknames, the cornflower is known as the “eye-catcher”, alluding to its beneficial effect on eyesight. It’s true that cornflowers are wonderful for restoring vitality to tired eyes.
Tip: to aid digestion, add a few pinches of fresh cornflower to your salads!

Nos posts sur le produit
A quality hydrolat cannot be improvised. It has to be earned, drop by drop.
Sometimes all it takes is a few drops to feel that something is happening. A feeling of softness settling in. A fuller breath. A discreet but real refocusing. Cistus hydrosol, for example, has its own way of bringing people together. It’s as if it’s gently bringing order where things used to be scattered. But why is this effect so tangible with some hydrosols, and not with others? What is it that makes a hydrolat seem alive, stable and effective, and makes it stand the test of time without...

When my eyes are tired or irritated
My testimony When I drive at night, my eyes quickly get tired. I remember our last trip to Paris, for a trade show. I drove most of the way in the rain and in the dark. I can’t see very well at night (perhaps because I’m used to well-lit roads in Belgium), which means I have to push. This was not lacking, as I arrived with lemur eyes, swollen and reddened. My eyes are quite fragile. The same thing happens to me if I drive without sunglasses in fine weather or if I spend too much time in...
