4 teaspoons hot distilled water 1 teaspoon freshly
juiced apple juice 1 teaspoon aloe vera gel 4 teaspoons vegetable
glycerin 1 heaping teaspoon powdered pectin
Add the glycerin to the water/juice/gel combination and
stir to fully incorporate. Add the pectin while the liquid remains
quite warm (if it cools, place it in the microwave or a double boiler to
raise the temperature) and use a hand held electric mixer to blend, or
stir vigorously to dissolve the pectin. Once the pectin has fully
dissolved, a light gel will begin to form. This may take from 15 minutes
to 1/2 hour. Once the gel sets, Apple Face & Neck Gelee is ready to use.
Apply the gel in a layer to your clean, damp face and neck. Rest for 15
minutes. Rinse with warm water and follow with a light moisturizer if
desired. Leftover product can be stored in the refrigerator for about a
week. Enjoy!! The shelf life of this product is necessarily limited by
the fresh apple juice. It should be used within a few days after it is
made.
