Spa to Go - Rancho Bernardo Inn

Having just enjoyed a number of Spa Services at the Rancho Bernardo Inn, I wanted to post their "Spa to Go" recipe card which includes an at-home therapy and recipe to help continue the spa experience.

Water Melon Toner
1 cup watermelon chunks
2 tbsp witch hazel
2 tbs distilled water

Puree watermelon chunks in a processor. Strain the liquid and discard the solids. Mix the strained water with the remaining ingredients and pour into a glass spray bottle. Gently mist over face.

Watermelon is good for the skin due to its moisturing properties. Rich in Vitamin A,B, and C, it keeps the skin fresh, radiant and hydrated. The non-greasy oil helps to smooth skin by refurbishing elasticity. (Courtesy of the Rancho Bernardo Inn)
