why use facial toners?

Skin toners have an evaporating and cooling action that causes muscles to contract and the pores to become temporarily smaller.

Toning is pleasant and refreshing, can act as an additional cleanser on very oily or dirty skin, and is valuable in removing any traces of grease your cleanser may have left behind.

So, try out these homemade toner recipes ... they differ slightly, depending on whether your skin is oily, normal or dry.

Once made up, bottle the following mixtures and keep in the fridge ...

Toner for Oily Skins

Toner for Normal Skins

Mix together one part witch hazel with two parts rose water.

Toner for Dry Skins

Mix together one part witch hazel, two parts rose water, and one part distilled water.


witch hazel - emergency treatment for pimples

Because of its astringent properties, straight witch hazel also makes an excellent emergency treatment for spots and pimples.

Apply frequently to the area - at least 4-5 times a day - as soon as you feel a spot starting.

This will help dry it out and, if you catch it early enough, could well prevent it appearing.
