  • ½ cup rose water – hydrates and soothes skin
  • 1 tsp aloe Vera gel – calms, hydrates, supports collagen
  • 2–3 drops vitamin E oil – nourishes and prevents oxidative stress
  • Optional: 2–3 drops lemon juice OR 1 pinch vitamin C powder – boosts collagen synthesis (use only if your skin tolerates it, avoid if sensitive
  • ⁠Instructions:

Make the clove infusion: Boil ½ cup water with cloves for 5–7 minutes. Let cool and strain.
Prepare green tea separately and let it cool completely.
Mix together clove infusion, green tea, and rose water in a clean bowl.
Add aloe vera gel and vitamin E oil. Stir well.
(Optional) Add a few drops of lemon juice or vitamin C powder for extra collagen support.
