How to Make It
1. Make a Clove Decoction
Simmer cloves in 100 ml filtered water for 5 minutes. Cover and steep for 10 more minutes, then strain. This gentle extraction keeps eugenol intact.
2. Combine the Aqueous Bases
In a clean glass beaker or bowl, mix the cooled clove water with rose water and chilled green tea. Stir slowly to keep it clear and active.
3. Add Humectants & Aloe
Whisk in aloe-vera gel until silky, then add glycerin for extra moisture and a slightly thicker texture.
4. Finish With Vitamin E
Squeeze the vitamin E capsule into the mix and swirl or shake gently to disperse evenly.
5. Bottle & Store
Pour into a sterilized dark-glass spray bottle. Keep refrigerated and use within two weeks to maintain potency.
