DIY Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Cucumber and Green Tea

 

 

 

Hey, pretty people!

 

 

 

It’s been a hot minute now since I published my DIY Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Chamomile and Lavender, and I have been thinking about proposing something similar ever since.

Well, I have finally decided to sit down, gather my thoughts and get crafting.

I picked this version because it seemed pretty easy, but also had a few elements I had never challenged myself with before.

So, enough chit chat and let’s get crafting!

YOU’LL NEED

• 2 cups of Green Tea
• 1 cup of Aloe Vera gel
• 1 cucumber
• An empty spray bottle
• 1 Vitamin E tab (optional, but it does preserve the life of your spray)

 

 

THE CRAFTING PROCESS

The first thing you want to do is infuse your green tea. Leave the tea bags in for a couple of minutes, and while the liquid is still steaming add your Aloe and vitamin E.

You want to stir the mixture for a while, until you have a perfectly liquid and smooth solution. It may be annoying, but it’s a crucial step when it comes to consistency and effectiveness.

Now, it’s time for another annoying step: letting the mixture cool down completely. We are halfway through the crafting process, so hang on!

Once you have a cooled down mixture, you’re all ready to chop up your cucumber and plop it into the green tea. There’s really no good or bad way to cut the cucumber, so just do it carefully however you prefer.

 

THE INFUSION

Much to your dismay, it’s infusion time. Long and annoying, sure, but definitely a necessary step. I would recommend to leave the cucumber into the tea for 4 hours. This will allow the tea to soak up all the good stuff from the vegetable without it going ripe.

When the four hours have passed and you have taken the cucumber out, all you have to do is pour the liquid into the spray bottle. Your facial spray is all ready to go now!

This product is amazing if you happen to have tired and thirsty skin, but that’s not all.

All of Mario Badescu sprays can double up as a makeup setting spray, which is pretty amazing. This particular choice is great if you aim at a more dewy finish, for both your makeup and your skin!
