Foreue – Natural Skin Care (Handmade & Vegan)

Astringents or toners, also know as facial mists, floral waters, etc are an important part of the face cleaning process.  These natural beauty products are used for removing make up and any excess oils on the skin, or soap residue.

I always look for astringents that have flower and herbal essences that can deposit active ingredients to the skin while soothing, nourishing and cleaning and even lightly moisturizing the face.  Such natural skin care products should contain little to NO alcohol, dyes, synthetics, or fragrances (use essential oils instead).

I prefer astringents with absolutely no alcohol, although so many have a high percentage of alcohol that can damage and/or dry the skin.

Try your local Health food stores for toners with plant-based ingredients and preferably no alcohol.  And, read labels to select the healthiest products you can find.

Congrats if you can do this! Toners bring extra cleaning to the face before applying any make up.  If you are not applying make-up after the facial cleansing then you are ready to either apply moisturizer or allow the face to rest and indulge in the feeling of freshness and hydration.

FYI, as a plus, you can use your toner as a spritz to refresh your skin on a hot day. Besides my daily routine, at festivals and lawn parties it’s just the perfect natural  skin care product to have near by.
