Calendula and Chamomile are two of the most soothing and calming herbs you can use on your skin and they are fairly easy to find. This toner is easy to make and makes great a gift. Use this on your face in the morning instead of over-cleansing your skin with high pH soaps. It is also excellent for soothing rashes and inflamed skin.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup dried Calendula or Chamomile flowers

  • 1 16oz bottle of Witch Hazel

Instructions

  1. Place the dried flowers in the bottom of a large glass mason jar. Pour Witch Hazel over flowers until just covered. Seal the jar tightly with a lid and store in dark place for at least 2 weeks.

  2. Strain the Witch Hazel through cheese cloth twice to remove any particles. Move Witch Hazel to a small glass bottle and use as needed.

Notes

Soak a cotton ball with Chamomile Witch Hazel and use as a compress to soothe acne lesions, hemorrhoids, or fever blisters.
