The key to beautiful, blemish-free skin is in your kitchen cabinet! Store-bought facial toners can contain chemicals and preservatives, but a homemade apple cider vinegar (ACV) toner is a natural and cheap solution to your beauty woes. Unfiltered ACV, found in health food stores, is packed with vitamins and minerals and contains alpha-hydroxy acid, an ingredient often found in anti-aging products. It also balances the skin's pH, regulates oil, and has anti-inflammatory properties.
Instructions
- 1
Combine 3 cups distilled water with 1/3 cup ACV.
2Pour into a bottle and shake well.
3Soak a cotton ball with the toner and apply to a cleansed face.
4Additional ingredients can be added if desired. Add a few pills of aspirin, which contain salicylic acid. Substitute antioxidant-rich green tea for the distilled water. Add a few drops of tea tree oil or a few teaspoons of witch hazel for additional antibacterial properties.
5For best results, store the toner in the refrigerator.
