Infuse the cloves
Add the whole cloves to the warm okra extract.
Steep for 10 minutes to release their fragrance and eugenol.
Strain once more to remove all solids.
Blend the actives
In a sterilized mixing bowl, combine the okra-clove extract with cooled green tea, rose water, aloe gel, glycerin, and vitamin E oil.
If using grapeseed oil, whisk it in now until the mixture looks uniform.
