• Antioxidants: Protect the skin from free radicals.

• Aromatherapy: Uplifts mood and reduces stress.

Aloe Vera Benefits:

• Hydrating: Deeply moisturizes without leaving a greasy feel.

• Healing: Speeds up skin regeneration and soothes sunburn or blemishes.

• Anti-bacterial: Great for acne-prone skin.

• Rich in vitamins: Contains vitamins A, C, E, and enzymes.

Together, these two ingredients form a calming, rejuvenating blend ideal for daily use.

🧴 Ingredients

Note: Use organic, chemical-free rose water and aloe vera for best results.

🥣 Directions

1. Harvest Aloe Vera Gel:
   Cut a fresh aloe vera leaf and scoop out the gel. Blend until smooth.

2. Mix Liquids:
   In a clean glass bowl, combine rose water and aloe vera gel. Stir gently.

3. Add Castile Soap:
   Pour in castile soap slowly while stirring. This will create a foaming effect.
