This toner is gentle enough for sensitive skin, or any other skin type. However, if you have oily skin, be sure to clean it off thoroughly after use. The orange flower helps to cleanse the skin, and will help soothe irritated or dry skin. It also helps to moisturize the skin. Just use in place of your regular toner or astringent.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 1 Cup of Orange Flower Water
  • 2 Tablespoons of Glycerin
  • 1 Tablespoon of Orange Flowers
  • 2 Drops of Tangerine Oil
  1. Step 1

    In a small pan (make sure it's a pan that has a cover), put the orange flower water on high heat. Once bubbles begin to form on the bottom of the pan, take it off the heat.

  2. Step 2

    Add in the tangerine oil and stir it together gently.

  3. Step 3

    Add in the orange flowers and whisk together gently, then put the cover on the pan. Allow the mixture to steep for the next 30 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Take the cover off the pan, and allow it to sit for 10 minutes. Once the 10 minutes is up, add in the glycerin slowly, whisking it together as you do. Continue whisking until it's mixed fully.

  5. Step 5

    Pour the mixture into an airtight container, and then store in the fridge. The orange flower toner stay fresh for about a month as long as it's kept in the fridge between uses.
