INTRODUCTION
Nowadays, people are very concern when it comes to their appearance especially Filipino students. They want to look nice every time they are going to their school they wear their proper uniform with their black shoes and one problem that we encounter is how to keep our shoes looking as good as new but as a student we experience problems especially in financial. So we therefore decided to make an alternative shoeshine. Shoe shine (or boot polish), is a waxy paste, cream, or liquid used to polish, shine, waterproof, and restore the appearance of leather shoes or boots, thereby extending the footwear's life.
We also decided to make shoeshine because some traditional shoe polishes contain chemicals that are toxic if ingested and can be harmful to the environment if improperly disposed of. We want to make a shoe shine that is made up of organic materials. We want to come up with a shoe shine that is truly eco-friendly and cheap.
METHODOLOGY
Our homemade shoeshine is very easy to do and requires only a few ingredients.
