Lazy Girl Toner
Sometimes I get lazy...
Let's face it, we all do. Especially after a night out, I'm not overly excited to perform my whole skincare routine. I've created a little concoction that'll suffice for those nights you're feeling a little too tired to make it to the sink. I'm going to give you a little run down on the ingredients I'm using.
RAW APPLE CIDER VINEGAR
Raw apple cider vinegar is a natural antiseptic & antibacterial (which helps with acne & eczema), balances the natural pH of the skin & naturally exfoliates the skin. It’s also used to lighten sun spots, age spots & acne scars & is great for removing excess oils & make up.
LAVENDER OIL
Lavender oil has many benefits besides smelling absolutely amazing! Inhaling lavender can reduce both stress & anxiety & allows the brain to relax -perfect after a busy night out. Lastly, it won't clog your pores, is a natural antiseptic & antibacterial, balances hormone levels & kills bacteria on the skin.
TEA TREE OIL
Tea tree oil has been used in many skin care products over the years because of its many powerful benefits. Lightening acne scars, restoring the skin's natural oils, treating eczema & is antibacterial & anti-inflammatory.
Ratios:
For sensitive skin: Mix 1 part apple cider vinegar with 4 parts water
For normal/dry skin: Mix 1 part apple cider vinegar with 2 parts water
For oily skin: Mix 1 part apple cider vinegar with 1 part water
Instructions: (8oz bottle)
Taking an 8oz bottle with a disc cap, mix your ratios based on skin type. I have sensitive skin so I mix about 3/4 cups of water with 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar.
Add 2 drops of lavender oil & 2 drops of tea tree oil.
Shake the bottle to mix up all ingredients & use by pouring mixture onto a cotton pad & applying to face. (Make sure you shake mixture before every use)
Apply moisturizer when skin dries.
