Homemade Aloe Vera & Flaxseed Face Gel
Ingredients
2 tablespoons flaxseeds
1 cup (240 ml) water
2 tablespoons pure aloe vera gel
1 vitamin E capsule (optional)
Instructions
Add the flaxseeds and water to a small saucepan.
Simmer over medium heat for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
When the mixture thickens into a gel, remove from heat.
Strain immediately through a fine sieve or cheesecloth.
Let the gel cool completely.
Mix in the aloe vera gel and vitamin E oil.
Store in a clean jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
How to Use
Apply a thin layer to clean skin.
Leave on for 15–20 minutes.
Rinse with lukewarm water.
Use 2–3 times per week.
Note: This gel may temporarily make the skin feel smoother and more hydrated, but it will not permanently remove wrinkles or reverse aging. Always do a patch test first to check for irritation.
