Homemade Beauty: Lavender Facial Toner

Lavender is in bloom right now, so it is the perfect time to make this natural (and cheap!) DIY facial toner!
Ingredients:
1 Tbs lavender buds
1 cup pure witch hazel
6 drops lavender essential oil
1 cup distilled water

Directions:
  1. Combine the witch hazel, lavender buds, and essential oil in an air tight jar and store in a cool, dark location for 2 weeks.  Shake the jar vigorously every day while the lavender is steeping.
  2. After 2 weeks, strain out the lavender buds using a fine mesh strainer or cheese cloth.
  3. Add 1 cup distilled water and mix.
  4. Can be stored at room temperature and is best if used within 12 months of preparation.
