3 Step Clove Skin Care For Wrinkle Free Glowing Skin

Clove is a powerful traditional ingredient, but it’s also strong on skin, so the “best” clove skincare routine is the one that keeps clove well-diluted, uses it at the right time of day, and supports the skin barrier with hydration + sealing moisture.

Below is a simple 3-step clove routine designed exactly for your timing:

  • Step 1 (Morning): Clove Ice Cubes (for tighter pores + fresh glow)

  • Step 2 (Night): Clove Rosewater Skin Repair Toner

  • Step 3 (Overnight): Clove Baby Oil Wrinkle Eraser Cream (barrier-sealing night balm)

1) Morning: Clove Ice Cubes To Shrinking Large Pores

Ingredients required (6+)

  • Cloves (whole) – 1 tsp

  • Filtered water – 1 cup

  • Green tea bag – 1 (or 1 tsp green tea leaves)

  • Cucumber juice – 2 tbsp (freshly blended & strained)

  • Aloe vera gel – 1 tbsp (pure)

  • Glycerin – ½ tsp

  • (Optional) Vitamin E capsule – 1

Procedure

  1. Boil water, add cloves, and simmer for 3–4 minutes. Switch off the flame.

  2. Add the green tea bag and steep 3 minutes (don’t over-steep).

  3. Strain and let it cool completely.

  4. Mix in cucumber juice, aloe vera gel, glycerin, and vitamin E (optional).

  5. Pour into an ice tray and freeze.

Instructions (apply in the morning)

  • After cleansing, wrap one ice cube in a soft cotton cloth and gently glide over cheeks, nose, forehead, jawline.

  • Do not ice for more than 1–2 minutes total to avoid irritation.

  • Pat dry, then apply moisturizer and sunscreen.

Benefits

  • Helps skin look fresh, firm, and less puffy

  • reduces the appearance of large pores

  • Gives a quick glow boost before makeup

  • Helps calm the look of heat/redness (when done safely)

  • Supports oil-control feeling on the T-zone

  • Preps skin to absorb the next step better

2) Night: Clove Rosewater Skin Repair Toner

Ingredients required (6+)

  • Rose water – ½ cup

  • Clove water (mild infusion) – ¼ cup (recipe below)

  • Aloe vera gel – 1 tsp

  • Glycerin – ½ tsp

  • Green tea (cooled) – 2 tbsp (optional but great)

  • Vitamin E capsule – 1

  • Cucumber juice – 1 tbsp (optional)

Quick clove infusion: Boil ½ cup water, add 6–8 cloves, simmer 2 minutes, steep 10 minutes, strain and cool.

Procedure

  1. In a clean bowl, mix rose water + cooled clove infusion.

  2. Add aloe vera gel and glycerin; whisk well.

  3. Add vitamin E and mix again.

  4. Transfer to a spray bottle.

Storage: Because this is preservative-free, store in the refrigerator and finish within 5–7 days.

Instructions (use at night)

  • Cleanse your face.

  • Spray toner or apply with a cotton pad (avoid eyes).

  • Let it absorb, then apply your moisturizer or go straight to Step 3.

Benefits

  • Hydrates and refreshes skin after cleansing

  • Helps support a calmer, healthier-looking barrier

  • Reduces the look of dullness overnight

  • Helps skin feel smoother and softer

  • Preps skin for overnight “wrinkle care” step

  • Gentle daily toning feel (without harsh alcohol toners)

3) Overnight: Clove Baby Oil Wrinkle Eraser Cream

This step is designed to seal in moisture so skin looks smoother and more “filled in” by morning. If you’re acne-prone, keep it only to dry zones because heavy occlusive products can feel too rich for some skin types.

Ingredients required (6+)

  • Baby oil – 3 tbsp

  • Cloves (whole) – 1 tsp

  • Petroleum jelly (Vaseline) – 1 tbsp

  • Cocoa butter or shea butter – 1 tbsp

  • Sweet almond oil – 1 tsp

  • Vitamin E capsules – 2

  • (Optional) Aloe vera gel – apply separately as a thin layer before the cream

Procedure

  1. Infuse: Warm baby oil + cloves on very low heat (double boiler preferred) for 10–15 minutes. Do not overheat.

  2. Cool completely and strain the oil.

  3. Melt petroleum jelly + cocoa/shea butter together (low heat).

  4. Switch off heat, add infused baby oil + almond oil.

  5. Pierce vitamin E capsules, mix in.

  6. Pour into a clean jar and let it set.

Instructions (apply overnight)

  • At bedtime: cleanse → Step 2 toner → (optional thin aloe gel layer) → apply a pea-size amount of this cream.

  • Massage gently in upward strokes on face + neck.

  • If oily/acne-prone: apply only on smile lines, under-eye bone area (not too close), and neck.

Benefits

  • Seals hydration to reduce the look of fine dryness lines

  • Makes skin feel plumper and softer by morning

  • Supports a stronger moisture barrier

  • Gives a “glass-skin” style overnight finish for dry skin

  • Helps skin feel smoother over time with consistent use

  • Great for winter dryness and rough patches

Quick safety notes (important)

  • Patch test every clove DIY first (inner arm, wait 24 hours).

  • Keep clove diluted and avoid using these on broken/irritated skin.

  • Avoid icing if you have rosacea, broken capillaries, or very sensitive skin, and never exceed 1–2 minutes.

If you want, I can also create a weekly schedule (how many days to do each step) for oily, dry, and sensitive skin.
