A beauty guru has unveiled a simple DIY product that she claims will give you perfect, glass-like skin – without having to spend a lot of money on Botox or other expensive treatments.
The Glass Skin Secret TikTok account shared a video showing a woman, who creates beauty tutorials as MehGlow, making a DIY at-home mask that she claimed was “better than Botox.”
The beauty guru, who has completely clear, youthful skin, shared the clip in December and commenters wanted details on how to create an easy, inexpensive treatment.
MehGlow, who has nearly 800,000 followers on TikTok, regularly shares beauty hacks made with ingredients you can find in your pantry — including this option made with just coconut oil and aloe vera.

MehGlow, who has nearly 800,000 followers on TikTok, shares beauty hacks made with ingredients you can find in your pantry, like this one with coconut oil and aloe vera
MehGlow shared a video as she applied a simple, clear gel mask that she made herself to her face.
The ingredients include a spoonful of ultra-hydrating aloe vera gel and a spoonful of coconut oil, mixed together in a mug, until it reaches a jelly-like consistency.
According to HealthlineCoconut oil can help with inflammation and acne while keeping skin hydrated, while aloe vera is easily absorbed by dry skin and can lock in moisture for that 'glass skin' effect so popular on social media. The gel contained in the plant's thick leaves is known for its many soothing benefits, including preventing wrinkles.
Commenters wanted to know if you are supposed to sleep in the mask all night or rinse it off, and Healthline Experts recommend leaving a light layer on all night.
This isn't the only “better than Botox” recipe the beauty expert has shared with her skincare-obsessed followers.
In December, she made a mask of milk and cornmeal balls with olive oil, mixed in a bowl.
One commenter joked: 'I just ate it. I feel sick. I'll keep you posted,” while another joked, “Add an egg and you've got cornbread.”
Another person asked if they could still use the mask if they had oily skin, to which another commenter replied: 'Please don't use olive oil if you have acne-prone skin or oily skin. Jojoba oil is light enough and suitable for oily skin.'
