DIY Rose + Witch Hazel Face Wipes For Post-Workout

The ladies over at Hello Glow never fail to inspire our beauty routines with their easy and all-natural DIYs. Our latest obsession is blogger Stephanie Gerber's inventive recipe for post-workout skin. Infused with rose petals and aloe these witch hazel face wipes help skin stay clear after a major sweat-fest. Here's Stephanie on the wipes that'll help you get your glow on...

This time of year we all get motivated to crank up the exercise. Working up a sweat is good for many things, including getting your skin glowing, increasing energy and reducing stress. But it can also lead to a bit of acne when trapped sweat clogs pores (thanks, sports bra!). When you don’t have time to shower, these DIY face wipes are perfect for a post-exercise wipe down for your face and chest.

You don’t have to wait for a sweat session to get the facial benefits of these homemade wipes. Inspired by these out-of-my-price-range Anthropologie Detox Wipes, I crafted a rose-infused witch hazel mixture with healing aloe to exfoliate and hydrate. The combination of witch hazel and aloe is perfect for oily skin, so you can use them as a toner after washing your face at night (though those with rosacea might want to avoid witch hazel, as it can irritate skin, especially if you’re using witch hazel that has alcohol in it).Witch hazel has so many skin benefits, including reducing inflammation and tightening pores. But my favorite is just how cooling it feels. These are the perfect post-exercise pick-me-up. Here’s how to make your own. [olists num=1]
