I came up with this recipe this summer and I absolutely LOVE it! It’s not oily or greasy and it great for hot weather. So fast and easy to make, only 3 ingredients are needed. I tend to only make about 3-5 days worth at a time. This is great because the aloe is great healer and moisturizer for the skin, the vitamin E is an anti-oxidant and the tea tree helps keep skin clear and fresh during the hot summer months.
Ingredients:
- Pure aloe vera gel, no coloring added (This can be hard to find as most aloe gels are tinted green. I happened upon a brand that bottles just 100% pure aloe, at my healthfood store)
- Vitamin E oil (You can use the little capsules, or you can also get Vitamin E bottles by itself)
- Tea tree oil
How to make it:
- Quite honestly, I just eyeball this recipe but I’ll try to simplify.
- Put 4 parts aloe into a small container.
- Add 1 part vit E.
- Next add 1-2 drops of tea tree oil.
- Mix well. It should look slightly creamy.
- Apply after toner, morning and night if you desire.
Enjoy!

Sounds perfect, and just what I’ll need when my Clinique moisturizer is out. I just have to find the vitamin E.
Can you make batches that will last longer if I wanted to put it a pump? Or is it better just to make the weekly amount?
You could make more than that if you wanted, I would maybe go as far as 4-6 week sized amount.
and mix it again every so often.
