Did you know that the Aloe Vera plant can do wonders for your skin? The pulp inside the leaves of this plant is very hydrating and soothing for skin issues as well as being antibacterial and anti-fungal.
How does Aloe Vera help?
- For dry and itchy skin: Aloe gel has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial substances that help to reduce the itching and also soothes and moisturizes the skin.
- For bug bites: Aloe vera is a wonderful natural antiseptic, which is what makes it great for addressing mosquito bites. It has vitamins and minerals that help to reduce pain, swelling, itching, and it improves blood circulation to the area around the bite that helps the skin recover faster.
- For treating sunburns: When applied on burnt or damaged skin, aloe vera helps relieve pain and redness by reducing inflammation, and it soothes the skin by increasing blood flow. It has a cooling effect on the injured area because of its high moisture content and helps to repair the skin. Aloe gel also stimulates collagen production to help in the healing process.
Using Aloe Vera
All you have to do is cut off a piece of aloe vera leaf and squeeze out the gel in a bowl. Gently apply the gel over the skin and let it dry naturally. Repeat this process at least 2-3 times a day for 2-3 days to get real results.
And if getting the leaf is a problem, you can use aloe gel. Like Beauti Me’s ANTI-FUNGAL, ANTI-BACTERIAL ALOE GEL, which also has essential oils to effectively soothe and hydrate burned, damaged, infected, irritated, or dry skin. This is an invigorating gel to bring the health and freshness of springtime back to your skin!
