Instructions
Now the yellow juice of the aloe vera should be gone. Cut the leaves lengthwise into halves. Scrape off the gel of the plant with a spoon.
2 leaves aloe vera
Pour the gel into a blender jar. Whip it briefly with a hand blender. It should now be creamy and you can see air bubbles in it. Put it aside.
Pour the warm milk into a tall mixing bowl.
100 ml milk
Give the almond oil drop by drop and stir constantly with the hand blender to the milk. Important: You must continue to whisk the milk during this time. The process of stirring in the oil should take at least 5 minutes. Allow yourself time for this.
250 ml almond oil
When all the oil is stirred in, the mixture should start to thicken a little. If not: Continue stirring.
Fold the creamy aloe vera gel into the milk-oil mixture. Not with a whisk, but with a spoon. And finally add 10 drops of essential oil.
10 drops essential oil
Pour the mixture into a jar and put it in the refrigerator. It will now take a little time for the cream to firm up and you will have a nice even mass. Let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours. It will not be as firm as a store-bought cream.
