Skin Toners that Enhance Your Complexion

    

Tone Up

by The Well Daily
   

Has your busy schedule left your face looking less than glowing? Having a facial toner on hand is the magic trick. It's the perfect compliment to your daily cleanser: It balances the pH levels (neutralizes oilliness) and removes make up residues your cleanser might've missed. Not to mention, toners aid in banishing that awful t-zone.
If it's not already a part of your skin care regimen, it's time to spring into action and create the perfect toner fit for all of your beauty needs.

DIY Lemon Mint Toner
Materials

1 organic peppermint tea bag	1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice
¼ cup witch hazel	1 cup boiling water

Directions
Steep a peppermint tea bag in boiling water for 10 minutes. Remove the tea bag and let cool to room temperature. Add the lemon juice and witch hazel and cool mixture in the refrigerator. (Storing in a glass Mason jar works very well) When chilled, dab on a cotton ball and gently swipe over entire face for a quick and refreshing toner that will tighten pores while reducing any irritations from impurities.
Hot tip!
* If your skin is prone to oiliness add ⅓ cup of apple cider vinegar to the above toner. It will help to further restore the pH balance of your skin and rid of any excess residue from make up and toxic environmental by products
