Cosmetic Recipe: Aromatic Southernwood Skin Tonic

Instructions:

1. In a clean glass beaker, combine the Witch Hazel Hydrosol and Rose Hydrosol.
2. In a separate small container, mix the Artemisia Abrotanum Blue Essential Oil with the Polysorbate 20. Stir gently until the essential oil is fully dispersed. Polysorbate 20 helps to solubilize the essential oil in the water-based mixture.
3. Slowly add the essential oil-polysorbate 20 mixture to the hydrosol blend, stirring gently.
4. Incorporate the glycerin and stir until all ingredients are well combined and the tonic appears clear.
5. Carefully pour the mixture into a clean spray bottle or bottle with a dropper.

Application Recommendations:

• After cleansing your face, spritz the Aromatic Southernwood Skin Tonic lightly over your face and neck, avoiding the eye area.
• Allow the tonic to air dry or gently pat it into your skin.
• Use morning and evening as part of your skincare routine.
• Due to the potency of essential oils, start with a low concentration and adjust if desired and well-tolerated.
• Store the skin tonic in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight.
• Perform a patch test on a small area of skin before widespread use to check for any potential sensitivity to the essential oil.
• Be mindful of the subtle blue color and use in formulations where a slight tint is acceptable or not noticeable.
