A miracle homemade cream! Collagen is like the invisible architect of your skin – it builds a solid foundation that provides suppleness, elasticity and that youthful glow. But after the age of 25, it decides to take an extended vacation, leaving behind fine lines, sagging skin and a complexion that is more reminiscent of Monday morning than Friday night. The cosmetic industry will happily offer you serums at prices that could finance your next vacation to Croatia. But why waste money when you can create your own natural collagen booster that is affordable, natural and so effective that your mirror will applaud you every morning?
Miraculous homemade cream! Collagen is the protein that holds your skin upright like a faithful pillar. But as we age, its production declines – and faster than we’d like to admit. The result? The skin loses its firmness, the first wrinkles appear, and the glow fades, leaving the complexion dull. Our home-grown collagen booster is the right answer: with natural ingredients full of antioxidants, vitamins and essential fatty acids, it stimulates collagen formation, moisturizes and protects the skin from free radicals - those annoying molecules that accelerate aging, as if they were paid for it.

- Bee's elixir of youth
Peel, grate, and squeeze the juice through cheesecloth or a fine sieve. This ruby-red nectar is packed with vitamin C, which is essential for collagen formation, and antioxidants that protect the skin from free radicals—think of it as a superhero in a red cape. - The basis for luxurious texture
In a saucepan, combine beetroot juice, rose water and cornstarch. Heat over medium heat and stir until a thick, silky cream forms. Cornstarch is your trusted ally, creating a protective layer and locking in moisture. - Flaxseed gel – moisturizing magic
Cover flax seeds with water, bring to a boil, and simmer over low heat for 4–5 minutes to form a thick gel. Strain through cheesecloth. This gel is a real moisturizing bomb, full of omega-3 fatty acids and lignans that restore the skin barrier. - Joining forces
Once the beetroot mixture has cooled, add the flaxseed gel, almond oil, and jojoba oil. Mix until you have a smooth, luxurious cream that would make even perfumery creams look enviously. - Storage
Pour the cream into a clean, sterilized glass container and store in the refrigerator. Use within 7 days - natural creams are like homemade cake, best fresh!

How to use a homemade collagen booster?
In the evening, after a thorough cleansing of your face (and maybe a toner, if you’re a model), apply a thin layer of cream to your face and neck. Massage in gentle upward motions – it’s like yoga for your skin. Let it absorb, and be careful not to leave red marks on your white pillowcase (maybe choose a darker cover just in case). In the morning, rinse your face with lukewarm water and be sure to apply SPF – the sun is a collagen saboteur that never rests.
Why does this cream really work?
- Beetroot: Vitamin C stimulates collagen-forming enzymes, while antioxidants even out the complexion and restore a healthy glow to the skin.
- Flax seeds: Omega-3 and lignans increase skin elasticity and reduce inflammation – goodbye redness!
- Rose water: Balances pH and keeps skin fresh as a spring morning.
- Corn starch: Creates a protective layer that locks in moisture and protects against external influences.
- Sweet almond oil: Vitamins A, D and E soften and regenerate the skin.
- Jojoba oil: Mimics natural sebum, moisturizes and prevents pore clogging.
Professional tips for even better results
- Sensitive skin? Reduce the amount of beets to prevent irritation or staining.
- Rejuvenating turbo mode? Add 2–3 drops of rosehip seed oil for extra anti-wrinkle power.
- Less is more: Don't overdo it with the amount of cream – natural ingredients are most powerful fresh.
- For a longer shelf life: Use a natural emulsifier (e.g. olivem 1000) and a natural preservative to keep the cream for up to 2 months.
