I understand that it dries out your skin but what if you dilute it with water? So 50% water 50%rubbing alcohol? and what if you use lotion after?

    Still drying. You won’t change the alcohol’s basic drying property. Try anything different!! This is bad for you.

    i do this a lot of the times when my face breaksout because it dry up your zits…but i wouldn’t reccomend doing this all the time, just occasionally, hope this helps!!

    Even better, use witch hazel. It’s a natural cleanser and is usually in the same area as rubbing alcohol on drugstore shelves.

    every once in a while I would use the alcohol to wipe down my face when it’s really flaring up but definitely NOT on a regular basis.

    Um, no…rubbing alcohol won’t do anything…toner is usually not derived from alcohol of any kind.

    If you want a gentle, and relatively cheap, toner, use witch hazel. You can get a huge amount of it for about $3.

    I would do that only in an emergency if you had nothing else to clean your face with. Otherwise it will dry out your skin too much and increase the chance you will get acne (because your skin will overcompensate and produce more oil).

    Use a witch hazel by itself or mix it with apple cider vinegar good for acne great toner without the drying effects of alcohol

    I tried the alcohol and after a while my oily skin becamed dry and scaly.This is good it removes shine and it works to prevent break outs.I love it

    Hope I helped

    Rubbing alchohol is terrible for your skin. Don’t use it.
