Pomelo peels as Skin moisturizer or Insect Repellent in solid form or liquid form
- 1Take a pomelo.
- 2Peel it.
- 3Clean the pulp off the peel, leaving only a thin layer of the green, orange, or yellow peel.
- 4You can cut it in smaller chunks but do not grind it, as the peel will most likely dehydrate in the process.Now, you can cut the peel as large as it can be to fit into a spray bottle.
- 5Put the cut peel into the spray bottle.
- 6Add rubbing alcohol into the solution and let it brew for several hours or days.
- Alternatively, add hot water instead.
- 7Avoid spraying the repellent into the eyes or the mouth.
