What is a decoction?

Decoctions are made in-house at Lush by boiling raw materials in water until half of the water evaporates. Some seeds, such as flax (another name for linseed), produce mucilage when simmered in hot water. Mucilage is a soothing, slimy substance that is made even thicker and more concentrated by the decoction method.
