Is Thyme a good astringent?

Thyme Astringent

Thyme can be used to make a good astringent for acne or other break-outs. Boil a sprig of fresh thyme (or a pinch of dried) in 2 cups of water for two minutes. Leave to infuse for five minute. Add the juice of half a lemon and rinse the skin with this several times a day. Refrigerate unused portions.
