You don’t need to be a chemist or spend a lot to make this tonic. Here are the basic ingredients that you can easily find in health food stores or pharmacies:
1 teaspoon (about 2 g) of whole cloves
100 ml of natural rose water
2 tablespoons (about 30 ml) of brewed and then cooled green tea
1 tablespoon (15 ml) of pure aloe vera gel
1 teaspoon (5 ml) of vegetable glycerin
1 capsule of vitamin E (400 IU)
Optional: 2 drops of witch hazel extract for a slightly astringent effect
The preparation is very simple: make a small decoction of cloves, let it infuse, filter, then mix with the other ingredients once the preparation has cooled completely. Pour everything into a clean spray bottle… and it’s ready to use!
How to use it for a “baby skin” effect?
Morning and evening, after cleansing, a few sprays are enough. Gently pat with your fingertips to absorb. No need to rinse: the active ingredients continue to work while you continue your routine.
Want to boost your complexion’s radiance even more? Once a week, mix a spoonful of this tonic with a little oatmeal for a quick mask that revives the skin and smooths its texture.
