(above: lipstick pepper spray, ingenious no?)
Last night i had a thought, shouldn't every girl know how to make pepper spray?? I researched some pretty simple ways to make the stuff right in your own kitchen!
is was pretty much the same recipe on all the websites I found. Here it is!
WAY ONE
what you'll need: One small spray bottle (like an old travel size hair spray bottle), something spicy (jalapeno peppers, chili flakes, hot sauce, or all three) water, and vinegar, a blender, and a stove.
- use a blender to grind the peppers and chili flakes if you are using them
- mix together the ground peppers, chili flakes, vinegar, and water
- cook on your stove in til boiling
- strain into your container (this is important, you don't want the bits of pepper to clog your spray bottle)
(remember, don't test this on your little brother/sister!! And clean up after your self!!)
WAY TWO
what you'll need: one small spray bottle, red pepper powder, oil (canola oil or baby oil), rubbing alcohol, blender.
WAY THREE
what you'll need: reallllly gross stuff (perfume, pepper, alcohol, toilet water, cat pee, you get the idea), one spray bottle, blender
Let me know which method works best!!
- in the blender mix together the alcohol and red pepper powder
- add in oil (about two tsp.)
- mix together REALLY well
- filter in spray bottle using some cloth
WAY THREE
what you'll need: reallllly gross stuff (perfume, pepper, alcohol, toilet water, cat pee, you get the idea), one spray bottle, blender
- mix everything together really well
- strain and pour into bottle
Let me know which method works best!!
Will certainly have to try these out. Although small towns have little need for pepper spray *shrugs*
