Following a long day, astringents can assist in removing makeup or other chemically-laden products from the skin. However, excessive use of alcohol-based astringents can cause the skin to appear dry and dull. For this reason, we are here to assist you.
Astringents are a god's gift to people with oily skin, more than other skin types. However, these natural astringents that are homemade can be used for all skin types. So let's take a look.
Natural Homemade Astringents

3. Rosewater

How to: You will only need to boil a cup of water and then add rose petals to it. Boil the water until it absorbs the colour of the rose flower. Stir well a few drops of lemon essential oil into the rose-infused water. Apply it daily before retiring to bed.
4. Apple Cider Vinegar
Raw and organic apple cider vinegar has always been touted as a beneficial product for the skin. In addition to shrinking skin pores, it also absorbs excess oil from the skin, contributing to a more even complexion.
How to: In a bowl, combine 25 millilitres of apple cider vinegar with 100 millilitres of distilled water. Stir thoroughly and add a few drops of lemon essential oil. Mix the ingredients in a container and apply it regularly to your face and neck.
5. Chamomile

How to: Add two cups of water to two dried chamomile flowers and dried mint and bring to a boil. When the mixture has cooled, pour it into an empty container. Use this astringent daily to rejuvenate the skin.
