Making Lemon Toner


           I have sensitive skin. Memphis’s weather is not good for my skin, so yesterday I decided to make my own skin toner. I needed Sake, a Japanese rice wine, lemon, and glycerin. First, lemon had to disinfect in vinegar for 30 minutes. Then a bottle for storing the lemon toner had to boil. After that, I cut the lemon in small pieces, put it into Sake, and added in a little bit of glycerin. I put it in the refrigerator because it takes three weeks to ripen. I use the lemon toner only at night because lemon has vitamin C that can make freckles. Making lemon toner is easy and good for my skin.

  1. Sungran,
    This is so interesting! I never heard of this kind of toner. Surely, it's perfect and can do magic to your skin. I have to agree, the climate in Memphis is not very skin-friendly. It is harsh because of the humidity and heat. In addition, the water here is very soft.
    Thanks for sharing, I'll have to try this one day.
