With winter in full swing, dry, flaky, and rough skin becomes a common concern. As the humidity drops, the skin loses moisture faster, making it essential to use a good moisturizer. Instead of relying on store-bought products filled with chemicals, you can make a natural, nourishing ghee-based cream at home.
Why ghee Works as a Moisturizer
Deeply Nourishing: Rich in fatty acids and vitamins A, D, E, and K, ghee penetrates deep into the skin.
Softens Skin: Helps smooth rough patches and dry areas like elbows, knees, and heels.
Natural and Chemical-Free: Ideal for sensitive skin, reducing the risk of allergic reactions.
Ingredients
Ghee – 2 tbsp
Aloe Vera Gel – 1 tbsp (soothes and hydrates)
Vitamin E Oil – 1 tsp (optional, for extra nourishment)
Rose Water or Essential Oil – few drops (for fragrance)
How to Make the Ghee-Based Cream
Melt ghee slightly on low heat until it becomes soft (do not overheat).
Mix in aloe vera gel and vitamin E oil thoroughly.
Add a few drops of rose water or essential oil for fragrance.
Let the mixture cool completely, then transfer it to a clean jar.
How to Use
Apply a small amount on your face and body after bathing or washing hands.
Massage gently until fully absorbed.
Use daily, especially on dry patches, heels, and elbows, for soft and hydrated skin.
Extra Tips
Store the cream in a cool, dry place for up to 2 weeks.
You can adjust the quantity of aloe vera or vitamin E based on your skin type.
For extremely dry skin, apply an extra layer at night for intense hydration.
