How to prepare
a gel
You can use home-made
gel:
1. Prepare the so-called basic product for mixing the
plant with.
2. Also use the herb or the extract. The most
common basic product for a gel is grease, but you can also use
resin mixed with oil, bee wax or butter. Because the grease can
easily deteriorate, use clean butter.
How to obtain
clean butter
- heat almost 100 g of butter;
- melt it
and remove the scum;
- after 15-25 minutes, the scum turns from
white to reddish and smells like burnt; the butter clears out and
it should be removed from the pot. Pour it into another pot and
let it cool off. It is a perfect basic product for a gel, it
smells good and it is easily absorbed by the skin and preserved.
Herbal and flower gel (Gallium verum)
- use
fresh clean butter and sliced fresh flowers. Mix them well, let it
cool for 7-8 days. Then, heat it once again and filter it through
a piece of lint. The gel is greenish. Keep it in the
refrigerator.
You can use yellow meadowsweet for curing skin
infections or healing wounds. But do not use it in case of old
scars or skin spots, due to chemical damage.
Warning!
Yellow
meadowsweet is used in cosmetics. It cleans out skin, removes
spots, wounds, scars caused by burning, acnea or rush. Use it for
dry or normal skin only. For greasy complexion, use infusion: 3
teaspoons of mixture into a cup of hot water.

scars, against infections, scratches, wounds (after surgery),
burns, skin ulceration, milkleg ulceration, etc. It is recommended
for healing benign and malignant tumour. Use it 2-3 times/day. In
case of serious wounds, use a concentrated decoction (3 teaspoons
per cup) and make compress.
Warning!
Because
it is very strong, clean the wound with alcohol before using it!
The layer should be thin, for the skin to absorb it well; the
pores should perspire or else infections may occur. Do not use it
