Aloe vera has become the most loved plant base ingredient I use on my skin!
I especially love the huge leaves… it does get a little sticky when removing the gel. But I have come to appreciate the process.
What if all we used on our skin was aloevera gel? That what got me thinking, using fresh plants grown by nature doesn’t sacrifice our skin health or the health of others.
Aloe vera gel can be used in various ways for good skin:
You can literally try this slimy gel with any other combo to suit your skin needs. How experimenting is the key! when formulated into a properly designed personal care regimen, can treat, exfoliate, restore, reveal and provide constant, impressive nutrition to the human skin.” And I’m about to show just how you can do that. Once you move past the slime texture of natural aloe vera gel and apply it to your skin, you’ll notice how soothing and cooling it treat wounds, minor cuts, dry skin and remove tan, treat sunburn and stretch marks.
One way to use aloe vera is to apply the gel directly, another would be to make a pack using aloe vera along with some other special ingredients from your kitchen. So, now you know that aloe vera for face is like a magical gel that has an amazing impact on your skin.
Here are some of my favorite DIY Aloe vera recipe for skin:
1. Aloe vera for dry skin – Take some aloe vera, a pinch of turmeric, a teaspoon of honey, a teaspoon of coconut milk and a few drops of essiential oils. Blend this mix till you get a paste. Apply it and leave in for about 20 minutes or so.
2. Aloe vera scrub – Grab half a cup of fresh aloe vera gel, a cup of brown sugar and two tablespoons of lemon juice. The sugar will help exfoliate and scrub off dead skin, the aloe vera will deep clean the skin and the lemon will help fade out scars and tan. Stir the three ingredients together and use it to scrub both face and body.
3. Aloe vera for acne – Take some aloe vera gel, turmeric, coconut oil and honey. Aloe vera’s healing properties coupled with the anti-oxidants from honey will leave you with smooth and clear skin.
4. Aloe vera for sensitive skin – Grab some aloe vera gel and avocado blend them to a paste. Apply and leave for around 20 minutes, then rinse it off.
