Create your own toner
Toners, just like any other beauty products, can be purchased easily without the need to get a prescription from a skin care expert. But if you prefer and enjoy doing beauty products naturally, then you’ll be happy to know that there are several ways on how you could create your own toner.
If you want to have a hydrating toner, here are the things that you need. Get at least 1/4 cup of tap water, half teaspoon of glycerine, one tablespoon of witch hazel, 5 drops each of the following essential oils: Clary Sage, Grapefruit, and German Chamomile. First, you must boil the water for about three to five minutes just to have it sterilised. Once it has already cooled down, put the ingredients together in small spray bottle or a spray bottle that can contain as much as 4 ounces of liquid. Make sure that you shake it very well so that all ingredients will blend. You can use it immediately after shaking the spray bottle. Spray it directly on your face. Make sure that you have used a facial cleanser before doing so. You may also spray the natural toner in a cotton pad before applying it in your face. This do-it-yourself toner must be stored in a cool and dry place. Don’t forget to dispose it after two months.
You can also create a toner that would lighten your skin at the same time. You must have at least four ounces of dried liquorice, an ounce of dried rosemary (for fragrance), ten ounces of ethanol, cheesecloth, funnel, and a container. Start by grinding the liquorice along with the rosemary in the coffee grinder. Add the mixture to the ethanol. Put it in a container and shake it well. Cover the jar and leave the mixture for eight days. Afterwards, strain the mixture using a cheesecloth and transfer it in a spray bottle. Don’t forget to add at least three ounces of fresh lemon juice which would act as the skin lightener.
You can use the latter DIY toner by spraying it once or even twice every day. However, see to it that you have cleansed your face first before you do so. If in case you noticed that it is drying your face (because of ethanol), you can add at least eight drops of the Vitamin E to get a moisturising element in your skin whitening toner.
