Can I use tea tree oil as a toner?

Tea Tree Oil is so useful and it is not harsh on skin. It even works on sensitive skin because it is so gentle.

It is great on oily and acne prone skin. Tea Tree Oil has all sorts of wonderful benefits while being gentle on all skin types. You will love using this homemade toner recipe in your skincare cleansing routine.

What is toner?

Toner is a liquid used after washing your face. It looks like water but isn’t always clear in color. Toner helps reduce the visibility of pores, neutralize your skin’s pH balance and removes any remaining soap residue.

You don’t rinse off toner. It aids in removing any leftover cleanser and prepares your skin for the next product.

Other common toner ingredients include Witch hazel, Aloe Vera, Apple Cider Vinegar, Green tea toner, rosewater and essential oils. If using witch hazel, look for alcohol-free witch hazel.

Variations:

Instead of tea tree oil, you can use other essential oils to customize your toner.

Try using lavender essential oil, rose, chamomile, sandalwood, a few drops frankincense and others. Geranium floral waters, rice water and aloe vera gel offer other suitable varieties.

Enhance your Toner by adding vitamins. This includes Vitamin E and Vitamin C. Vitamin C helps to brighten skin and offers antioxidant properties. Whereas, Vitamin E helps to moisturize and nourish skin.

Directions to use DIY Face Toner:

Shake to combone the ingredients. Then apply the diy face toner with a cotton ball or cotton pad 2 times daily. Blend all over your face.

You can also use a glass spray bottle if preferred. It is based on preference and whether you prefer to pray it on your face or use a cotton pad.

Follow up with a natural moisturizer. We love this DIY Face Moisturizer. Skin care is so important and helps with anti aging. Applying toner first will help your moisturizer work even better.

Regardless of your skin type, this DIY Face toner works great for any skin care routine! Once you try tea tree oil, you will be impressed with how well natural toners work without irritation.

Does DIY Toner Work in Skincare Routine?

Yes, it works great on skin. Another added benefit is allowing you control over the ingredients.

DIY gives you complete control over what goes into the skin products. It makes it easy to keep the toner completely natural and rich in minerals.

Astringent versus Toner

The main difference between these two products is that astringent typically contains alcohol. This removes excess oil.

Toner does not usually container alcohol and can offer more moisturizing counterparts. This is recommended because it is much gentler on skin than astringents containing alcohol.

Why you should use DIY toner:

• It removes dirt.
• Hydrates skin.
• Balances skin’s pH levels.
• Removes harmful ingredients in store bought toner.

It is a simple step that does a lot of good for your skin. While it might be tempting to overlook toner, it is actually very important. If you haven’t been using it, give it a try and see how beneficial it is for your skin.
