Crantini Toner

A skin-tightening toner good enough to sip.

Tone and tighten with this snappy astringent! Vodka is a natural preservative and an effective pore minimizer but if you have dry skin, cut back or skip it altogether. However, if you do skip the vodka, use within a day or two.

Here's what you do:

Pour vodka and witch hazel into a glass Pyrex measuring glass. Add the shot of juice and a twist of lemon. Apply to skin with clean cotton ball. Pour into a glass bottle or spray-top bottle for storage.

You'll need:

1/2 cup vodka
1/2 cup witch hazel
one shot of 100% cranberry juice
fresh lemon wedge

Do-It-Yourself Tips:

Try out your concoctions on an inconspicuous place like your forearm before you go slathering it all your body and have fun!
Use recipes with perishable food items such as eggs and veggies immediately or store in an airtight container up to one week in the frig.
Vodka, witch hazel, vinegar and lemon juice are natural preservatives and help extend the life of a DIY mixture.
Sugar and salt scrubs generally keep for a couple months as long as the container has a tight seal.
Store aromatherapy massage oils in a dark, well-sealed glass container for up to 6 months.
For gifts, consider separating the dry ingredients from the liquid and giving the recipient directions on how to mix them in one-use increments.
