You will need
- 1/2 cucumber
- 1 tsp agar
- 2 tbsp aloe gel
The ritual
- Blend and strain the cucumber for juice.
- Warm the juice gently, whisk in agar until dissolved.
- Stir in aloe, pour into a shallow dish, chill until set.
- Smooth the jelly over clean skin, rest 10 minutes, rinse cool.

Glow tip ✦ Make it the night before a big day — the chill is everything.
Storage ✦ The jelly keeps 3 days covered in the fridge.
Allergy check ✦ Very gentle; patch-test aloe if you're reactive.
Safety ✦ Patch-test on your inner wrist first. For external cosmetic use only — not medical advice.
Common questions
My jelly didn't set — why?
Agar needs a gentle simmer to activate, not just warm juice. Reheat and re-chill.
Can I use gelatin instead?
Yes, same amount — agar just keeps it vegan.
