Thyme Toner for Acne


Thyme Toner for Acne

1 Tbsp. dried thyme
3-4 Tbsp. witch hazel

In jar or bottle, combine the thyme and witch hazel. Within 20 minutes your mixture should have a light brown color to it. This is good and means that your thyme is steeping well.

The beauty of this toner is that not only does thyme help to bust through dirt and oil, keeping your skin clean and oil free, but you can also use it right away. Simply pour a little bit onto a clean cotton ball and wipe over a clean, dry face. Keep the thyme in the mixture for a few days before straining it out and storing it in a cool, dry place for up to a month.

Lemon/Honey Blackhead Remover


Lemon/Honey Blackhead Remover

½ lemon

3-4 drops honey

Drop the honey onto the lemon half. Rub the lemon on your face, emphasize the black heads prone areas like nose, chin etc. Leave the lemon and honey mixture on your face for 5 minutes, then wash it with cold water. You will see the results immediately. Additionally, lemon juice will also fade other marks/spots on the face and honey will moisturize.
I use this almost daily for the softening and moisturizing effects. Plus it makes my skin glow!
~~You can wrap the used lemon half in foil and store in refrigerator for, oh I’d say a few days, but I find mine good for almost a week. Well worth investing in a lemon!~~
