DIY Natural Eyebrow Gel Recipe – Activated Charcoal and Bentonite Clay
Creating an eyebrow gel using activated charcoal and bentonite clay is a straightforward and effective way to achieve defined brows. This natural formula not only enhances color but also promotes healthy hair growth.
Ingredients
For this DIY eyebrow gel, I use the following ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon bentonite clay: Known for its absorbent properties, it helps thicken the gel and provides structure.
- 1 teaspoon activated charcoal: This ingredient adds color, giving brows a bold look while also offering detoxifying benefits.
- 1 tablespoon aloe vera gel: A natural moisturizer that keeps the gel smooth and easy to apply.
- Optional essential oils (like lavender or rosemary): They enhance fragrance and can nourish the hair.
These ingredients work synergistically to create a gel that not only defines but conditions the brows.
Recipe
To make the gel, I follow these simple steps:
- In a small bowl, combine bentonite clay and activated charcoal. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of color.
- Gradually add aloe vera gel, stirring continuously. This ensures a smooth consistency as I combine the dry and wet ingredients.
- If desired, add essential oils for additional benefits and a pleasant scent.
- Continue mixing until I achieve a thick, but spreadable texture. Adjust with more aloe vera if it’s too thick.
Once prepared, I store the gel in a clean, airtight container. I apply it with a small brush or spoolie for precise results. This DIY formula allows me to customize the shade and maintain healthy brows without harsh chemicals.
