? I Love Aloe Vera Gel!
Hey everyone! It's nice to see that more and more people are looking at my blog! :)
Just wanted to post about Aloe Vera Gel and the multiple benefits it has for us to take advantage from!
First of all, did you know that Aloe Vera has no side effects at all? Usually there are natural remedies out there which can have some unpleasant turn arounds on people, however with Aloe, there's no risks to be worried about! Which means it's perfect for everyone, thankfully!
Let's talk about the 4 main reasons why I LOVE this plant!
Benefits
Conditioner
Pack in that moisture, by picking up products that contain Aloe Vera plant extract. The plant contains more than 70 different minerals, amino acids, enzymes etc that help our body maintain a good balance of factors like moisture, growth and skin cell repairs. Try adding some extract to a shampoo or directly onto your skin/scalp for an instant glow.Hair Growth
As we all know... a healthy scalp, means healthy hair!This means that we should really be feeding some good nutrients into our scalp if we want luscious, long flowing hair. Things like dandruff, inflammation can cause our mane to take a bad hit. Trust me when I say this; applying Aloe Vera Gel for things like inflammation is like putting ice on a bad burn. Seriously. It feels amazingggg, it's like an instant relief! Aloe Vera has soothing and cooling properties which is most likely why people use it for scratches, burn, bruises etc. If the gel is used on the scalp, then the general health and growth of the scalp/hair will be restored and improved.
Acne cure
Now, don't under estimate me when i say this... but Aloe Vera is seriously amazing for acne. It has healing properties that help reduce the swelling of spots which stops them from appearing so red and big. Aloe Vera also dissolves the excess sebum and dirt on the skin surfact that clog our pores and cause the spots to form. So not only does it reduce the appearance, but it gets to the root problem and prevents further break outs! By using Aloe Vera, don't expect all of your spots to go away, however do expect less breakouts than often.
Scar Reduction
for anything like those scars and marks left behind from acne/burns/wounds, Aloe Vera is here to help!
Aloe Vera helps encourage skin cell regeneration, which therefore means it helps repair damaged skin cells and reduce irritations! However after using the gel on my own skin, I've realised that it's maybe not the best for scars that've been around for a while. It works for those small, pesky ones though!
My own experience with Aloe Vera Gel has been brilliant. My routine would start off in the morning after I'd rinse my face and what not. I just applied a little bit to the driest areas of my skin, then blended it all together in a circular motion. I'd re-apply during the day if my skin got reaaally dry again; but after a few days of this process it wasn't necessary :) Before going to bed, I'd put a thick-ish layer on my face and wash it off in the morning! I was so impressed when i noticed how soft my skin felt every morning, it was a pleasure to wash it and touch the silky texture my skin had become! I liked how my complexion was lighter too, my eyes looked much bigger with clear skin. I had a fab time with this product, it's especially great for the winter when our skin is in a dire need of a deep treatment. If anyone is wondering, i used this product for my daily routine, but I'm sure any gel will do! If you have the plant, then even better!
Don't hesitate to try this out guys, like I said this has NO side effects so you have nothing to lose!
I'm hoping to post a make up haul next, i just need to get my exams out of the way first so i can make some time for taking/uploading pictures etc...
But until then, see you all later and thanks for reading! :)
