Strawberry Leaf Infusion For Acne Recipe

From: TipNut

Who knew that the cuttings (leaves and tops) from your strawberries could be of so much use! They work well in this infusion for clearer skin!

Ingredients:
1/4 cup strawberry leaves
1 1/2 cups boiling water

Directions:
1. Pour water over strawberry leaves in a glass bowl and cover.
2. Steep for 2 hours.
3. Strain and pour the water into a clean jar, seal with a lid and refrigerate.
4. Soak a wash cloth with the infusion, heat it then lay it on your face once a day for 5-10 minutes.

A warm wet wash cloth is a perfect relaxer before bed or after an extra stressful day at work, and while it relaxes you, it helps keep your skin clear!

Also, you can use this infusion to keep skin clear by washing with it twice daily (morning & bedtime).

*Apply a bit of the infusion to the inside of your wrist before using on your face. You want to make sure your skin won’t have a bad reaction to it (allergies). If your skin begins to feel irritated or burning, remove it immediately.
