On hot summer days, your skin will love this cooling hack.


Aloe vera gel not only cools the skin, it’s moisturizing and nourishing too. If you don’t grow your own aloe vera, try to get the purest gel form you can.


Tools and materials:

  • Aloe vera gel
  • Ice lolly/ice pop molds
Pouring aloe vera gel into a mold

1. Ice pops

Pour aloe vera gel into a couple of individual ice pop or ice lolly molds.


Keep them in the freezer so they’re always on hand.

3. Smoothe

Apply the aloe lightly all over your face and around your eyes.

This does get messy, so I suggest you tie your hair back and wear old clothes!

Smoothe the remaining gel into your skin and allow it to dry naturally.


Wash it off with warm water.

Replace the ice pops in the tray and top up if needed.


You can reuse the gel multiple times.


If you don’t have ice lolly molds, you can use a regular ice cube tray or small disposable cups or muffin tins lined with foil cupcake wrappers.


Pour in the gel, cover with aluminum foil and push a popsicle stick through the foil into the center of each mold.
