Know that if you don’t have apple cider vinegar you can use only witch hazel, the toner will still work. Likewise, you don’t have to use actual calendula flowers. It makes it more potent but you can just use water.

And though essential oils help perk up your day, you don’t need them. They’re completely optional.

Expert Tips To Make It

Store the face toner in a cool dry place. Or, in the summer months store it in the fridge. I do this with my green tea face mist and it makes it even more refreshing when you spritz it on.

How To Make..

Step 1: Boil your calendula flowers and tea in water and let sit for 10 minutes. Strain and let cool.
