Bay Leaf Anti-Wrinkle Elixir — Natural Skin Remedy

Ingredients

• 5–6 dried bay leaves
• 1 cup water
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (or coconut oil)
• 1 tablespoon aloe vera gel (optional, for extra hydration)

Instructions

1. In a small pot, bring 1 cup of water to a boil.
2. Add the bay leaves and simmer for about 5–10 minutes.
3. Remove from heat and let the liquid cool down completely.
4. Strain the liquid into a clean bowl.
5. Add the olive oil (and aloe vera gel, if using) and mix well.
6. Transfer the mixture to a clean glass jar or bottle.
7. To use:
   • Cleanse your face thoroughly.
   • Using a cotton pad, apply the bay leaf toner all over your face, focusing on areas with fine lines or wrinkles.
   • Gently massage a few drops of the oil mixture onto your skin.
   • Leave it on overnight or rinse after 30 minutes, depending on your skin’s sensitivity.
8. Use this natural remedy 2–3 times a week for best results.

Note:
Bay leaf has mild antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which may help your skin look refreshed — but it’s not “100,000 times stronger than Botox.” It won’t erase deep wrinkles overnight, but it can be part of a gentle self-care routine. Always do a patch test to check for any skin reactions!
