Cosmetic Recipe: Purifying Oregano Facial Toner

Instructions:

1. In a clean glass beaker, combine the witch hazel hydrosol and aloe vera juice.
2. Gently add the Oregano Glycolic Extract to the mixture and stir slowly to ensure even distribution.
3. Incorporate the glycerin and stir until all ingredients are fully combined.
4. Carefully pour the toner into a clean, dark glass bottle with a tight-fitting lid or spray nozzle.

Application Recommendations:

• After cleansing your face, apply a small amount of the Purifying Oregano Facial Toner onto a cotton pad.
• Gently swipe the cotton pad across your face and neck, avoiding the delicate eye area.
• Allow the toner to air dry on your skin; do not rinse.
• Begin by using the toner once daily, preferably in the evening, to assess your skin's tolerance. You can gradually increase the frequency to twice daily if well-tolerated.
• If you have sensitive skin, start with a lower concentration of Oregano Glycolic Extract in your formulations and monitor for any signs of irritation.
• Always follow up with a suitable moisturizer after toning.
• Store the toner in a cool, dark place to maintain its potency.
• As glycolic acid can increase sun sensitivity, it is crucial to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily when using products containing this extract.
