Using hydrosols instead of essential oils is a safer option for children under 6 years of age. These “floral waters” contain a significantly lower concentration of aromatic molecules while still providing an effective therapeutic tool.

Please FORGIVE me, i wrote My QUESTION somewhere else on your sIte and cant find it. My question is in regards to hydrosols and CHILDREN. Is EUCALYPTUS hydrosol safe to DIFFUSE in 100ml of water around a child that is almost 1 year old? Thank you!
Greetings, Eucalyptus hydrosol would certainly be safe to use in a diffuser. The essential oil itself would also be safe if used appropriately. You can find out more about this at the link below. ~Shane Carper
