The mists you can’t resist

My partner and I aren’t very crafty people but we both decided to make something unique.

As soon as we saw D.I.Y facial mist we knew we wanted to make this for ourselves. Our product is the best possible version because we have ingredients in our facial mists such as rose water, cucumbers, and aloe vera which all relieve redness and irritation of the skin, heals cuts and scars, and helps maintain the skin’s PH. It is an advantage to anyone who uses our recipe because every item in both facial mists are beneficial to the skin in multiple ways and won’t have any bad side effects compared to store bought products. Our experience with making this product is that it was a more complicated preparation process but the making of the product is less complicated. The manufacturing of the products went better than expected.Next time we would add a little bit more of the jojoba essential oil to the rose facial mist so that it has a stronger scent.

The objects we used in our rose facial mist is rose water and jojoba oil. We used half a cup of rose water, which you can purchase a rose at a flower shop or the nearest garden. You must let the rose petals soak in water overnight and boom rose water. We used rose water because its properties are anti-inflammatory and it also helps balance the skin’s pH. We then used 3 ½ tablespoons of jojoba oil which can be purchased at the nearest drug store or online. Jojoba oil resembles the skin’s sebum and also helps repair the skin. The supplies we used for the cucumber facial mist is a cucumber, lemon juice, aloe vera, and rose water. We used half a cup of rose water for the same reasons as the rose facial mist. We also used 1 cucumber because they have the same pH as the skin which means it restores the protective acid mantle and hydrates the skin. Cucumbers can be purchased at the grocery store. We also used ½ a teaspoon of lemon juice because it helps provide vitamin c, this can also be purchased at the grocery store. Then we used 1 ½ teaspoons of aloe vera which helps treat burns, acne, and dry skin. This can be purchased at any drug store. Our three most important items are rose water, aloe vera, and cucumber. Rose water is claimed to protect the cells against damage. MedicalNewsToday states, The skin is the largest organ in the body and protects barrier against UV radiation and other harmful sources. Rose water protects the cells in the skin against damaging properties as well. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/320216.php

Aloe vera is claimed to prevent wrinkles and protect the skin. MedicalNewsToday also says, Aloe vera might is protective against UVrays  and it can protect the skin from the aging effects of sunlight. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/265800.php Cucumbers are claimed to help hydrate the skin, clean the skin, and it has anti-inflammatory properties. MedicalNewsToday claims that using cucumbers on the skin has a cooling and soothing effect that decreases swelling, irritation, and inflammation. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/283006.php

To make our rose facial mist the first thing we did was boil the rose petals and leave them in the water overnight.  After the rose petals boiled, we took the rose petals out of the water and made sure the water was not contaminated with anything else. Finally, we put the rose water in the spray bottle and added 3 ½ tablespoons of jojoba oil and shook it up. For our cucumber facial mist the first thing we did was use some of the rose water from before and added aloe vera to it while it was boiling. Secondly, we washed off the cucumber and peeled it. Then, we put the pieces of cucumber into boiling water. After this concoction sat overnight we then poured it into the spray bottle. Finally, we added the lemon juice to the bottle. We did not encounter any problems while making our mixture, it went better than expected and the procedure went smoothly.
