Pick the dried flowers, and blend them together in some boiling water to make an infusion. This concoction can be used as a skin tonic and a cleanser. Just apply it to the face with a cotton ball.
The following recipe is a cool, refreshing cleanser for oily skin. Only make as much as you can use for two or three days, because it is made with milk.
Chamomile Cleanser
Ingredients:
Directions:
Place the flowers in the milk until the milk and let them infuse until the milk smells like chamomile. The best way to do this is to use a double boiler. Heat the water in the bottom pan, and remove it from the heat. Place the milk and flower mixture in a bowl over the water and allow it to sit. Occasionally, stir gently - you want to keep the flowers intact. When the milk is scented, strain it to remove the flowers, and pour the milk into a jar or bottle, keeping it covered. Store in a cool place for no more than three days - refrigerating is good. This is a refreshing cleanser for hot days!
