🌿 What It Does
This minimalist mist blends soothing Lavender with grounding Valerian for a soft, bedtime-ready aroma. Hydrosols keep the scent delicate, while an optional alcohol addition helps the spray dry quickly on fabrics.
🧴 Ingredients (100 ml / 3.4 fl oz)
- Lavender hydrosol — 70 ml
- Valerian hydrosol (or valerian tincture-in-ethanol*, see notes) — 20 ml
- Glycerin — 0.5–1 ml (≤1% for anti-static, optional)
- Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) — 1 ml (≈1%, optional fabric-soft feel)
- Preservative (broad-spectrum, water-phase; per supplier usage) — as directed
- Optional quick-dry: Ethanol 8–10 ml (reduce hydrosol accordingly)

🔥 How to Prepare
- Sanitize beaker, spatula, funnel, and a 100 ml fine-mist bottle; allow to dry fully.
- To a beaker, add lavender hydrosol and valerian hydrosol. Stir in glycerin and panthenol gently.
- Add preservative at the supplier’s recommended rate and mix well.
- Optional: Whisk in ethanol for a faster-drying finish.
- Optional aroma anchor: Pre-mix the drop(s) of lavender EO with a solubilizer (per supplier ratio) before whisking into the water base. Keep EO very low for linens.
- Funnel into the mist bottle, cap, and let rest 1–2 hours to de-bubble before use.
🌸 How to Use
- Before bed, lightly mist pillows and top sheet from ~20–30 cm. Avoid soaking.
- Mist once more in the room air and take a few slow breaths to unwind.
- Patch-test on delicate fabrics in an inconspicuous spot first.
🧭 How You Can Use This Recipe
- For Personal Use: Make bedtime more intentional with a gentle, clean aroma ritual.
- For R&D / Formulation: Tune lavender:valerian ratio, compare hydrosol-only vs. 10% ethanol versions, or test chamomile hydrosol swaps.
- For Small Business: Position as “Sleep Pillow Mist — Lavender + Valerian.” Offer in 50–100 ml fine-mist bottles with calming, minimal labels.
- For Gifting: Pair with a silk eye mask and a simple “wind-down” card.
🪶 Storage & Shelf Life
Store capped, away from heat/sun. With proper preservation and hygiene, best within 3–4 months. Do not touch the dip tube; keep the sprayer clean.
💡 Pro Tips
- Ultra-sensitive users: go hydrosols only, no essential oils.
- Static control on dry winter nights: keep glycerin ≤1% to avoid over-softening.
- Prefer warmer florals? Swap 10 ml lavender hydrosol for rose hydrosol.
🌿 Why This Works
Lavender offers a familiar, soothing floral that’s not heavy; Valerian brings a subtle, grounding base that rounds off the blend. Hydrosols provide a delicate scent that feels “clean” on linens without overpowering.
⚠️ Note
- For environmental use only. Do not ingest. Avoid eyes and direct inhalation.
- If sensitive to scents, use fewer sprays or choose hydrosol-only.
- *If using a valerian tincture in ethanol, ensure total ethanol stays within the optional 8–10% window and that fabrics are compatible.
