Make your own Apple Juice Toner
A great toner for most skin types can be made by mixing 1 part apple juice (organic, unfiltered is best) and 1 part witch hazel and a few drops (aprox. 1/4 part) of alcohol is optional. This toner is amazing because apple juice has fruit acids that clear away dead skin and witch hazel improves circulation and tightens pores. For a convenient way to store your toner, use a clean re-purposed travel-sized mouthwash bottle with a child proof cap. This amount can be used up in a week, is safe in the bottle from tiny fingers who might mistake it for regular apple juice, and you can put the bottle in the fridge for a refreshing splash of toner anytime.

As with all preparations, test on a small area of skin to check for any sensitivity or allergy before general use.
