Rose Water Toner

Pure rose water, £1.39

Inspired by the boots botanic's 'Organic Rosewater Toning spritz' I've been using pure rosewater as a toner for half the price. I picked up this bottle from my local Asian supermarket

Roses, traditionally associated with beauty, can be steamed and distilled to produce a concentrated, fragrant water with plenty of different properties. Simply apply to a cotton wool pad and sweep over your face after cleansing. 

Pros

• Anti-inflammatory to soothe irritated skin
• Source of anti-oxidants which encourage skin regeneration
• Fine for sensitive skin
• Hydrating
• Removes make-up well
• Naturally fragrant

Cons

• The smell of pure rosewater is super strong and perhaps a little overpowering

Total scores 9/10

Put a couple of drops in the bath too and you'll smell tasty all day
