INTRODUCTION

Hi, Steem fashion and style members, it's been a long time. It's good to be here today. I'm @destinedhanik from Nigeria. I'll be showing my little skill but before then, I wanna appreciate @pea07 for giving us the opportunity to showcase our skills.

MY SKILLS

I have few skills like drawing, I love drawing, mending clothes, writing articles, making organic oil or making oil from fruits etc but today, I'll be dwelling in one which is making oil from the scratch. So here is how it is done.

MAKING CARROT OIL

Items Needed
• Carrot
• Coconut oil or olive oil
• Container
• Grater

PROCEDURE##

• You wash your carrots very well and then scrape the bad side or the dark side off.

• Then you grate your carrot using a grater. This will take time depending on the quantity but I prefer this to grinding it.

Grating my carrot

• Carrot carries water so when you finish grating it, you press the water out and then dry the chaff for some hours under the sun or you put it in a frying pan and turn until the water in it dries. Without squeezing out the water, your carrot oil will be mixed with water which won't give you the effect you want or won't be quality.

Water I squeezed from the carrot

• After drying the carrot chaff in the sun for few hours, I poured it into a container and then poured my olive oil in it. I made sure the olive oil soaked up the carrot and then since it is cold pressed carrot oil, I kept it for about two weeks, covered tightly. But I made sure I stirred it everyday and closed it back tightly.

After a week or two depending, the oil will turn from the colour of olive oil to deep orange and then the final step is to drain or separate the oil from the chaff. This can be done through the use of a very small sifter.

USES OF CARROT OIL

Carrot oil is very good for different purposes.
• It maintains one's complexion.

• It keeps one's skin fresh and can also be used to tone one's skin

• carrot oil contain vitamin A and E which nourishes the skin, making it smooth and bright and it is a perfect oil for a fair complexion.

• It can be used to fry and also used for cooking.

• It clears off blemishes and wrinkles.

MAKING MONEY THROUGH CARROT OIL

• When you have processed your carrot oil, you can sell it at a high price, because when selling it, you need to consider the carrots used, the olive or coconut oil, the time or duration spent, so you put all these into consideration.

• Having carrot oil at home can save you the cosy of buying body cream or even hair cream.

• You can use it to make stew or fry things.

• When people get to know that you sell quality carrot oil, they will always patronize you thereby giving you the chance to produce it in large scale.

I found another post of yours where you have used the same pictures. The more interesting thing is these photos are screenshots which are taken on two different days from a video content. Here are the proofs.

@pea07, the second images down are my images tho I used it still for a post on carrot oil in my post, I still have it here on steemit

The first ones are still my shot tho I never used it but when I'm snapping anything, I take as much as 5 shots or more but I delete the ones I have used, so these okes were taken the same day I did carrot oil, but I didn't use these particular okes, and for the screenshot, it helps me from searching for pictures, I just screenshot from my gallery and edit, thank you.

Please if there is any corrections to be made, I'll take it and adhere to it, thank you. And I also want to know if it's wrong to take as much as 5 to 10 pictures and use it at different times, thank you.

And please, I have never made any video, except someone has used my pix to make video, that's me in my house. I have other pix of same location to show that's the verandah in my kitchen.

Ok, we understand. But first thing, you already make this oil in other community and posted to get support. You are posting here after 20 days it's not a good thing. We will accept this as it's your first time, but next time, it would be better to share new skills for different contests to avoid such things. I hope you understand. Thank you.

@ashkhan, thanks so much for the correction, I have taken note. I'm not to share the same skill at all. I appreciate your correction and it won't happen again. Once again,thanks for the correction.
