Effective Homemade Toners For Maintaining Beautiful Skin

November 15, 2012

Toners are important in the skin care regime because they remove excess oil and traces of dirt and grime remaining on skin after cleansing.

Furthermore, they help restore the pH balance of your skin, tighten the pores, and stimulate blood circulation.

You can make your own skin toner at home by combining various natural ingredients from your kitchen. Thus, unlike commercially available tones, they do not contain harmful chemicals. In addition, these toners are inexpensive and convenient to make.

Recipes for Homemade Skin Toners

  • • Using a solution of three parts water and one part apple cider vinegar works as a great skin toner for all skin types. Those who have dry skin can dilute the vinegar more.

    Besides, plain water can be replaced with green tea to enhance the beauty benefits of this toner. You can use this simple yet effective toner one or two times in a day. Alternatively, mix a teaspoon of organic apple cider vinegar in one and a half cup of water.

     

  • • Another easy way to make a facial toner is to add a teaspoon of baking soda in a cup of water and apply it on your face up to two times in a day. It is particularly good for getting rid of acne.

     

  • • Whisk an egg white along with one teaspoon each of lemon juice and honey. Leave this recipe on your skin for almost 10 minutes and then rinse this skin toner off to tighten the pores and reduce wrinkles.

     

  • • Put one cup each of fresh, chopped cucumber, chopped tomato, lettuce leaves, and four tablespoons of lemon juice through a juicer.

    You may also puree these ingredients in a blender and then extract the juice. Apply this juice on your face and neck as a natural toner to reduce blemishes and lighten your skin color.

     

  • • A combination of two teaspoons each of watermelon juice, distilled water, and one teaspoon of vodka can be used as a natural toner for skin.

Finally, strain the liquid and use it as a skin toner.

     

  • • In case of normal to sensitive skin, take 100 ml chamomile infusion or chamomile tea and add a drop of German chamomile oil in it.

  • • A combination of two tablespoons of fresh lemon juice and a tablespoon of rose water works as a good toner for your skin. Another simple toner can be prepared by mixing half a cup of rose water and a quarter cup of witch hazel.
