Aloe Vera<\/strong>, the modest houseplant is a \u2018miracle,\u2019 wonder plant, often hiding in plain sight. Having been around and used as a medicinal herb, it nourishes the body from the inside \u2013 it is rich in nutrients, aids in improving digestion and even boost immunity. Aloe Vera can be used topically too, i.e., its gel can be used to enhance one\u2019s skin, especially the face and the hair.<\/p>\n

However, before we get into the essential reasons and health benefits of Aloe Vera, let us first learn how to extract Aloe Vera gel directly from the plant. If you have an Aloe Vera plant at home, select its fatter leaves or stems and cut it from the base. Or you may pull the leaves from their bottom.\u00a0 Be careful as the plant has thorns.<\/p>\n

Next, use a sharp knife to slice the thorns from the edge of each leaf. Then slice the stalk in half and keep the gel side up. You may slice open leaf as well. Use a spoon to scrape the gel out into a container. When all the gel is extracted, refrigerate the gel. If this process seems too tedious for you, you can buy Aloe Vera gel from the market as well.<\/p>\n

Here are six reasons to apply Aloe Vera gel on your face, skin, and hair \u2013<\/p>\n

1 Helps soothe sunburn<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Aloe Vera gel has cooling properties and is anti-inflammatory. Hence, it is one of the most natural remedies for sunburn or burnt skin. Applying this gel helps with a protective layer for the skin, and it also helps to retain moisture. It is rich in antioxidants and minerals that boost the healing process.<\/p>\n

2 Helps to moisturize the skin<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Unlike regular, market-bought moisturizers, Aloe Vera gel when used as a moisturizing gel doesn\u2019t leave a greasy film on the face and the skin. In fact, it does just the opposite \u2013 it unclogs the pores and softens the skin.<\/p>\n

It can be used as an aftershave treatment. This is because the Aloe Vera gel helps to keep the skin hydrated and heals burns by razors and smaller nicks & cuts. It also helps treat dry skin.<\/p>\n

3 Boosts healing of wounds<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It is now a known fact that Aloe Vera is highly beneficial for burns, cuts, and other injuries. This is because Aloe Vera boosts the healing of wounds, i.e., reduces the time of healing. This is true especially in the case of 1st degree and 2nd-degree burns. It\u2019s a great\u00a0skin burn treatment<\/strong>. It also helps to speed up skin cell reproduction as much as eight times. Aloe Vera is also known to penetrate the epidermis, i.e., the outer layer of the skin faster than water.<\/p>\n

4 Fights skin-ageing<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Aloe Vera gel has vitamin C and E, beta-carotene in abundance. Therefore, it has anti-ageing properties. It also contains antimicrobial properties and is anti-inflammatory. It also helps to eradicate skin blemishes and diminish age lines. Additionally, it helps to increase the production of collagen in the body and skin elasticity.<\/p>\n
