Flaxseeds Cloves Serum For Younger Looking Skin

Why Flaxseeds & Cloves?

Flaxseeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and lignans that promote skin elasticity, hydration, and rejuvenation. Their natural gel soothes fine lines and supports collagen production.
Cloves are loaded with antioxidants and eugenol, which boost skin repair, fight free radicals, and can help fade dark spots and wrinkles.

What You’ll Need

  • 2 tablespoons whole flaxseeds
  • 5–8 whole cloves
  • ¾ cup filtered water
  • 1 teaspoon aloe vera gel (pure, store-bought or fresh)
  • 3–4 drops sweet almond oil or coconut oil
  • 1–2 capsules vitamin E (optional, for extra hydration)
  • (Optional) Rose water or a few drops of fresh lemon juice for added brightness
  • Clean glass bottle or dropper for storage

Step-By-Step Method

1. Make Flaxseed Gel

  • Add flaxseeds to water in a small saucepan.

  • Bring to a boil, stirring often.

  • Add whole cloves and let simmer on low for 7–8 minutes, until liquid thickens and seeds look swollen.

  • Remove from heat and strain using a fine sieve, cheesecloth, or tea strainer to collect only the gel.

2. Enhance Your Serum

  • When the gel cools, add aloe vera gel, almond/coconut oil, and (if using) vitamin E oil by piercing the capsule and squeezing out the contents.

  • Mix in rose water or lemon juice if desired.

3. Blend And Store

  • Whisk or mix gently.

  • Transfer the serum to a sterilized glass bottle or small dropper bottle.

  • Store in refrigerator for up to 8 days.

How To Use

  • Nightly: After cleansing and toning your face, take 2–3 drops or a pea-sized amount of serum and warm between fingertips.

  • Gently massage onto face and neck, focusing on fine lines and aging-prone areas (forehead, under eyes, mouth creases).

  • Leave on overnight. Wake up to softer, plumper, and more radiant skin!

  • Follow with a light moisturizer if needed.

Benefits

  • Fading fine lines and wrinkles thanks to antioxidants in cloves and essential fatty acids in flaxseeds.

  • Intense hydration & glow from the natural gel and added aloe vera and oils.

  • Improved elasticity and rejuvenation with regular use.

  • Targeted nourishment with easy, affordable kitchen ingredients.


Tips & Cautions

  • Always do a patch test before full application.

  • If you are sensitive to cloves, reduce the quantity or omit.

  • For best freshness, prepare a new batch every week.

  • Keep the serum cool and away from sunlight.
