If you suffer from dry skin and would like to avoid putting harsh chemicals on your face, you can make your own facial toner at home that will help to sooth your skin. Made of natural ingredients and easy to prepare, this dry skin facial toner can help restore your skin's natural beauty. Read on to learn more.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

4 oz. dark glass bottle
2 to 3 drops of honey
1 tsp. elderflower glycerite
3 tbsp. rose water
3 tbsp. orange blossom water

Step 1

Dissolve the honey in the elderflower glycerite. Use a funnel to pour it into the dark glass bottle and shake it thoroughly. The honey and elderflower glycerite act as a humectant, attracting moisture from the air to the skin of your face.
Step 2

Add the rose water to the honey/glycerite solution, cover tightly and shake well.
Step 3

Pour orange blossom water into the bottle and shake it one more time. Close the bottle tightly to avoid having your toner evaporate.
Step 4

Shake vigorously every time you use your dry skin facial toner to ensure the ingredients are well mixed.
Step 5

Use a cotton ball to apply your dry skin facial toner. Use smooth upward strokes whenever toning your skin.
