2nd Review: Homemade Green Tea Spritz


This is my second review but my first review on one of my homemade products. When I do a review a homemade product I will place it in the category of either, Make Again or Never Again. Make Again mean i will defiantly make this product again. Never Again means I will never waste my time making this again. I named it myself, Green Tea Spritz. I needed a reviving and moisturizing spray to wake up my curls. Also, I am in love with regular green tea. I have been drinking it non stop for the past week. So I thought how would I be able to incorporate my love of green tea and this was how.

Ingredients (May vary depending on length):
- 1/2- 1 Cup of Water
- 1 Green Tea Bag
- 2 Tablespoon of Tea Tree Oil
- 4 Drops of Peppermint Essential Oil
- 2 Drops on Lavender Essential Oil
- 4 Drops of Rosemary Essential Oil

Directions:
1. Boil water to a small pot
2. Add the green tea bag and stir
3. Once you make green tea, let it shimmer
4. While shimmering add oils
5. Let the mix cool and then add to a spray bottle
*You may need to shake the bottle before every use because the oils will settle at the top.*

Since my hair is short, it gets matted very easily. So i need something to make curls fuller. I would water but i wanted something to moisturize my hair. Green tea is high in antioxidants and calms the scalp, peppermint stimulates the scalp, rosemary calms the scalp and lavender for fragrance. The spray is very light and smells like peppermint. The smell is very mellow. I will defiantly Make Again.
