Herb Of The Week - Aloe Vera - Basic Recipe

[Guest guest]

Here is a very basic aloe vera recipe:

 

Ingredients:

Aloe Vera gel 16 oz

Essential oil between 2.5 ml & 10 ml

 

1 In a bottle, blend essential oils and combine thoroughly.

2 Add this blend into the aloe vera making sure to combine thoroughly.

Tip: One of the best ways to ensure that all ingredients have combined

thoroughly is to shake container for about 1 minute.

 

Hints:

.. Use 0.5-2% of essential oil when making aloe vera recipes.

.. 5-10% of aloe vera is sufficient when adding to floral mist sprays

(hydrosols and " floral water blends " )

.. The very best aloe vera is straight from the plant.

 

I have found aloe blended with Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) and

German Blue Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla) is very nice for soothing

burns. If you refrigerate the blend a little bit it feels even better!
