A natural, homemade skincare idea makes for a great gift. 

Computer screens, televisions, business documents - all things that make our eyes and heads sore and tired. Ease your tired eyes just before bedtime with this simple, relaxing toner, and in the morning you will be that wide-eyed, well-rested self you know and love!

Materials:

  • 1 Fresh cucumber to yield ¼ cup juice (see directions)

  • 2 Tablespoons witch hazel

  • 2 Tablespoons distilled water

  • Clean clear bottle

  • Decorative Tag

  • Twine

Tools:

  • Blender

  • Sieve

  • Chopping Knife

Instructions: 

  1. Prepare the cucumber juice by chopping up the cucumber (peel and all) and liquefying it in the blender. Using the sieve, strain off the clear green juice.

  2. Mix the clear green juice together with the remainder of the ingredients.

  3. Pour the liquid into the bottle and close the lid tightly. Embellish the bottle with a tag and twine wrapped around the neck.

Basic 1-2-3: Store your toner in the refrigerator so it will last longer and have a cold, tingling effect.
