This kind of recipe is often called “Grandma’s” because it uses common kitchen or natural ingredients.
✨ Grandma’s 2-Ingredient Glass Skin Recipe
Aloe Vera Gel + Honey
Why it works:
-
Aloe Vera → hydrates, calms redness, adds a dewy finish
-
Honey → humectant (pulls moisture into the skin), softens texture, gives instant glow
This combo gives the skin that smooth, plump, glassy look temporarily by deeply moisturizing the surface.
🧴 How to Make It
-
Mix
-
1 tablespoon pure aloe gel
-
½ teaspoon raw honey
-
-
Apply a thin layer to clean skin.
-
Let it sit for 10–15 minutes.
-
Rinse with lukewarm water.
-
Finish with your usual moisturizer.
Your skin will look hydrated, tighter, and naturally glowing.
⭐ Tips for Best Results
-
Use pure aloe gel, not the green drugstore kind with dyes.
-
If your skin is oily, use less honey.
-
If your skin is dry, leave the mixture on the longer end of the 10–15 minutes.
-
Patch-test if you have sensitive skin.
🍑 Optional Glass-Skin Boosts (but will make it more than 2 ingredients)
-
1–2 drops rosehip oil for glow
-
A splash rice water as a final rinse
-
A dab of glycerin mixed into your moisturizer
