Wild Carrot Organic Hydrosol, 250ml

Latin Name: Daucus Carota
Plant Part Used: Seeds
Origin: France

Wild Carrot, native to Europe, flourishes abundantly along roadsides and in meadows. Renowned for its liver-supporting and diuretic properties since the 16th century, this plant offers remarkable benefits through its distilled essence.

The essential oil is extracted from seeds harvested at the end of summer, just as the umbels naturally close in on themselves. Unlike other members of the umbellifer family, Daucus Carota stands out due to its unique composition rich in sesquiterpenes and sesquiterpenols. This gives it a bold, earthy, and woody aroma that carries the essence of nature’s resilience.

What truly sets Wild Carrot apart is the gentleness of its action and its complete lack of toxicity, making it suitable even for children.

Hydrosol Usage Tips:

External Use: Apply as a facial toner or cleansing mist to rejuvenate the skin and promote a healthy, luminous complexion.

Origins and Botanical Background:
Wild Carrot is native to Europe and parts of Asia but has naturalized across North America and other regions. It thrives along roadsides, meadows, and open fields, often recognized by its delicate, lacy white flowers and distinctive carrot-like aroma.

Historical Uses:

Ancient Greece & Rome: The medicinal properties of Wild Carrot were noted as far back as Ancient Greece and Rome. The seeds were valued for their diuretic properties and used as a digestive aid. Greek physicians, such as Dioscorides and Hippocrates, mentioned its use for various ailments, including treating digestive issues, menstrual problems, and as a diuretic.

Middle Ages: During medieval times, Wild Carrot was widely used for its medicinal benefits, particularly for liver health, detoxification, and skin issues. It was believed to have cleansing and revitalizing effects.

16th Century Europe: Herbalists recognized its liver-supporting and diuretic properties, and it became popular for its ability to stimulate kidney and liver function. The plant’s therapeutic uses were documented in many herbals of the period.

Modern Era: Wild Carrot is now highly valued in aromatherapy and natural skincare, particularly for its regenerative and brightening properties. The seeds, flowers, and roots are all used for different purposes, but the hydrosol and essential oil are especially popular for skincare and detoxification.

Cultural Symbolism:
The name "Queen Anne's Lace" comes from folklore that likens the flower's intricate white pattern to lace. According to legend, Queen Anne, a skilled lace-maker, pricked her finger while working, and a single drop of blood fell onto her lace, represented by the tiny purple or dark red flower often found in the center of the bloom.
