This is far more refreshing than using the Clinique toner that my mom uses (even if I could afford it).
Ingredients
3 tablespoon fresh mint leaves or lemon balm
peel from 1 orange
peel from 1/2 lemon (Meyer lemons are a little sweet smelling)
peel from 1/3 grapefruit
1 cup boiling water
1 tablespoon witch hazel extract
Place mint or lemon balm leaves in a bowl and bruise with a spoon in order to release their volatile oils. Add citrus peels. Pour boiling water over leaves and peel and allow to cool completely. Strain to remove solids. Add witch hazel extract. Pour into a clean container
NOTE: This is an 'unpreserved' toner, meaning that it must be kept refrigerated and used up in a week or so.
