MANGO ALOE FACIAL TONER
 

This overnight treatment will help reduce redness as the result of sunburn and windburn.

• 1 cup aloe vera gel, gilled

• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mango

• 1 lime, juiced

Puree the aloe vera gel, chopped mango, and the juice of one lime.  Chill mixture, and apply to face at night with clean cotton pads.  The toner will feel slightly sticky from the exfoliating sugars in the mango.  Leave on overnight, and rinse in the morning with cool water.  Keeps for approximately 2 weeks.
