DIY Makeup Setting Spray (Rosewater or Cucumber Mint)
Do you love dewy, glowing skin? If so, you’ll love this ultra-hydrating, natural DIY makeup setting spray made with rosewater and glycerin. Choose your preferred fragrance: rosewater or cucumber mint.
Servings: 1 bottle
Ingredients
- 1 cup Food-grade rosewater (for rose version)
- 1 cup Peppermint hydrosol (for cucumber mint version)
- 1 tbsp vegetable glycerin
- 8oz glass spray bottle
Optional
- 1 tsp Leucidal Liquid SF
- 10-20 drops rose essential oil
- 1 tbsp cucumber fruit extract
- Natural food dye (I used this brand)
Instructions
- Fill your properly sterilized glass spray bottle 3/4 of the way with your rosewater or mint water.
- Add 1 tbsp of vegetable glycerin to your base (any more than this can give your mist a greasy feel).
- If desired, add your 1/4 tsp of Optiphen Plus, which is roughly 0.5% concentration in an 8oz spray bottle. I now recommend 1 tsp Leucidal Liquid SF instead, which is roughly 2% concentration in an 8oz spray bottle.
- Finally, add your rose essential oil or cucumber fruit extract.
- Shake to combine.
Notes
The natural food dye powder isn't necessary -- I used it just so that the finished product would look pretty in the bottle!
