Is Tea Tree Oil Safe to Use as a Toner?

Absolutely! Making your own Tea Tree Oil toner is very easy.

What Exactly Is Toner?

Think of toner as a powerful helper after washing your face. It’s a liquid – looks just like water but its color can change. Toner helps your skin’s pores reduce, make the pH better and say goodbye to any soap left behind.
And guess what? You don’t wash it off! Instead, it gets rid of any left over cleaner and readies your skin for what comes next in the steps you use.

Variations!

Don’t believe in tea tree oil? Don’t worry, you can change your toner with other important smells too.
Test using lavender, rose or chamomile. You can also try a mix with good things like frankincense. There are choices like geranium floral waters, rice water and aloe vera gel available—many to choose from!
And hey, why not amp up your toner with some vitamins? Think Vitamin E for moisture and nourishment, or Vitamin C for that extra glow and antioxidants.

Whipping Up Your DIY Face Toner

Ready to dive in? Here’s what you’ll need:

• 1 ½ cups distilled or purified water
• 3 tablespoons dried basil
• 6 drops tea tree essential oil
• Coffee filter
• String
• 1 8-ounce container

The steps? Super simple:

Stuff the dried basil into a coffee filter, seal it tight, and dunk it in boiled water. Let it steep for about 2 hours.

Once done, add the tea tree oil, pour it into a bottle, and shake well.

Now comes the fun part—using it! Apply your DIY Face Toner with a cotton ball or pad, or maybe opt for a glass spray bottle if that’s more your style. A little shake, a gentle application, and you’re good to go!
