If you live or work in a dry environment, your skin probably starts to feel a little tight by midafternoon. Facial mist can be a lifesaver, but some varieties are pretty pricey. If you're strapped for cash or just want to try your hand at making a refreshing spray, this tutorial will show you just how quick and easy it is.
Because mists and sprays are mostly water, you need to use the good stuff. You can use tap water if you wanted to, but it's recommended you use bottled mineral water instead. After all, this product is going on your precious face. The same advice goes for the essential oil you choose. Good-quality essential oils are easy to find in most stores, so take a whiff before you buy to make sure you like the scent.
