Aloe Vera for Skin Care

Aloe Vera is a natural healing plant. The species is native to Northern Africa but has been widely exported around the world because of its amazing therapeutic properties. The plant grows up to 3 feet tall and contains 18 amino acids, 75 nutrients to nourish the skin and 12 types of vitamins.

In the quest to find the fountain of youth, people spend a lot of money on expensive cosmetics which claim major wrinkle reduction. Instead, try applying Aloe Vera gel to wrinkles. Aloe actually stimulates the growth of new collagen and elastin in the skin which helps the appearance of younger looking skin.

Aloe's most important ingredients - aloin, barbaloin, and aloe-emodin - are responsible for its cathartic action. The Chinese and ancient Greek prescribed aloe for constipation, and today aloe is still prescribed by physicians as a laxative. Aloe is considered a powerful healer for external burns, scrapes, and sunburn.

The best way to use Aloe Vera for dark acne marks is to apply it to your skin after each wash. It is not a substance that will be noticeable once applied, and leaving it on for your skin to absorb will provide really good results over time. Of course, you will need to be patient while on any facial care program, as results aren't instant!

It may be applied directly to the affected areas of the scalp, and most individuals generally do not experience any side effects. When using aloe vera for hair growth, it can be combined with other natural products, such as wheat germ and coconut milk, to create a type of shampoo.

Aloe Vera has been used for centuries as a healing "wonder plant" that can cure everything from the skin to the bowels. And yet, even with this, man hasn't really understood the true power of Aloe Vera. Aloe Vera is a proven remedy for the treatment for several skin ailments, including daily skin care for improving the quality.

One of the key benefits of Aloe Vera is in its action on skin allergies and burns. It is one of the most popular remedies which are used by herbal specialists around the world. Aloe Gel can be applied on the skin, and Aloe powder is often put into capsules for instance the Aloe ride which is available in the market. Aloe gel can also be applied to cure cases of dandruff.

This natural chemical broth protects you even under the hottest sun, although you should still use sun blocker to prevent other damaging effects of the UV radiation that hot sun contains. Of all the natural skin care products available today, aloe vera is likely the best known and is certainly one of the most powerful.

Green tea, ginger and even dong quai have even been shown to help. There are a plethora of different herbs that can help. The only problem is that some of them are tested and many are not. They are traditions of various countries or treatments that were used back in time by people without resources that they found results from.
