D.I.Y Skin Brightening Toner

Hello!
     In the wintertime, my main skin care point is making my skin look bright and moisturized. This toner does just that! Its three ingredients are extremely pampering for your skin. You simply can't go wrong with these ingredients and I'll tell you more about there properties at the end of this post. Let's get started!

Things you'll need:

      You will need a container to store the toner in. The one that I'm using is an old Body Shop Makeup Remover bottle that I had lying around. Also make sure that the bottle is clean so as not to contaminate the toner with icky germs.

     You'll need 2-3 pure camomile tea bags
     Your going to put those tea bags into 1/4 a cup of water and pop it in the microwave for 1 min and 15 seconds.

     measure out about 1 cup of rice and mix with water. Pop it into the microwave for 1.5 minutes and then remove the excess water from the rice and mix with the camomile tea.
     Do the same thing that you did with the rice to some oatmeal. Strain out the oatmeal water and mix it with the camomile tea and rice water mixture. Mix it all together and pour into your container. Fill the rest of the container with cold water until its full.

To Use:
      Apply to either a cotton pad, like what I do, or you can use a cotton ball. Apply in an upward motion along your face.

The Result
     Your skin will be so much brighter after this! The results happen so fast you barely have time to notice that your skin was dull! Alright so now that you've seen what it can do, lets talk about why its so good for you (:

Camomile- Camomile is so great for your skin. It has tons of antioxidants in it which help to cleanse and moisturize the skin. It is used to treat wounds and infections because it helps to speed up the healing process. Camomile also is a natural skin lightener giving the complexion a nice glow naturally. It soothes the skin and is great for those with acne skin or acne scarring since it has so many antioxidants. It will also defend the skin from free radicals which causes premature aging.

Rice Water- Rice Water softens the skin like crazy. It will make your skin brighter and firmer, as well as shrinks the pores, protects your skin from the sun and refreshes the skin. It helps so much with your complexion!!

Oatmeal- oatmeal is great for acne since it exfoliates the skin gently and get rid of all that dead skin naturally. In the wintertime our skin can get very dry as well and oatmeal really helps to lock in the moisture on your skin and keep it soft and supple. It also lightens the skin making the face look brighter.

     There is your information! I hope that you guys enjoy and I'll see you next time for a Kate Middleton Tutorial! If you like this post make sure to 1+ it to share with your friends (:
