Tips To Make A Perfect DIY Toner For Your Skin Type

1. If you’re using mint/basil leaves toner, make sure to wash them properly before using.
2. Rose water is an excellent product to use in any toner. You can use rose water instead of plain water for a perfect toner.
3. If your skin is oily, you can use a few drops of tea tree oil to control acne breakouts.
4. If your skin is dry, you can add almond oil.
5. For acne-prone skin, I would recommend you to use a mint leaf toner with rose water with a small amount of apple cider vinegar. This will reduce your pores, control acne breakouts, and reduce dark spots.
6. For super dry skin that can cause severe dryness after any product, you can use aloe Vera gel in your toner for hydration and moisture.
7. Make sure to use toner on your washed/cleaned and dry face. Do not ever apply before washing.
8. You can use moisturizer after applying toner on your face. No need to wash.
9. For best results, you can use it overnight on your face.
