I didn't know that about vodka, I just assumed it was an accessible ingredient. All these recipes are supposed to be made with "stuff laying around your house." Cool.

Anyone know a recipe for a refreshing face spray? I'm not sure which essential oils are good/bad for one's skin...

Shame I can't get vodka.lol

I think if you brewed an organic chamomile and peppermint tea and just put the cooled brew in a bottle it would be really nice and perfectly safe for your skin (going to try that now--I have really sensitive skin, but I am positive this is a safe bet). Rose water would work too and is really easy to make.

I found a couple more alternatives:
1 pint white vinegar
2 cups chopped natural petals or leaves (sage, yarrow, lemon balm etc.)

In a sauce pan, bring the vinegar to a boil and add the chopped petals or leaves. Remove from heat and transfer to a large covered container and let it steep 2 weeks. Strain through a coffee filter into bottle of choice.

Note: This goes back to the tea idea. I think they chose vinegar because it is shelf stable and you can keep it longer than if you just used tea and water. You can also boil the herbs and make a facial steam by draping a towel over your head and holding your face over the steam rising from the pot.

As for essential oils, I think as long as you actually have the food grade natural essential oil, it will be okay on your skin. Just make sure you DO NOT use fragrance oil. It's a completely different thing.
