Aloe vera is a succulent plant that has been used for centuries for its medicinal properties and skincare benefits. It is renowned for its fleshy leaves that contain a gel-like substance. This gel is rich in vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids, and antioxidants, which contribute to its numerous health and beauty benefits. Here’s how…
For the Face
- Aloe Vera gel is a natural moisturiser that helps to hydrate the skin without leaving it greasy. It is especially beneficial for those with dry or sensitive skin.
- The gel has anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe and calm irritated and sensitive skin as it helps to reduce redness, swelling, and discomfort.
- Aloe Vera contains antioxidants that can help combat the signs of aging. It promotes collagen production, improves skin elasticity, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Aloe Vera has antimicrobial properties that can help reduce acne-causing bacteria. It also helps to heal acne scars and blemishes, leaving the skin clearer and smoother.
