Benefits of Aloe Vera

Aloe Vera has been used for centuries to treat skin conditions ranging from sunburns to psoriasis. Today, it’s a popular ingredient in skincare, hair care and beauty products. BeautyUniverse.com offers a wide range of hair, skin and body care products with Aloe Vera as the main ingredient. Take a look at the benefits of Aloe Vera to see how it can help your skin look and feel its best.

It Has Anti-Aging Properties

When applied topically in a form of cream, lotion or gel, Aloe Vera can help minimize, prevent or even reverse early signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles. Use it in a face mask or purchase skincare products and beauty treatments containing aloe. It helps aging skin by moisturizing it and removing dead skin cells, as well as boosting its elasticity and leaving skin smoother and more supple.

It Treats Problem Areas

Topical application of Aloe Vera can also treat acne and help eliminate or minimize the marks and scars left behind by pimples. It helps treat acne thanks to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, which can keep new pimples from forming. Plus, when combined with lemon juice it can lighten skin to reduce the appearance of scars, blemishes and other imperfections. For example, Mill Creek Botanicals Aloe Vera Gel 99% is a concentrated non-greasy moisturizer with anesthetic, antibacterial, and anti-fungal properties. It is great for burn, sunburn, dry skin, psoriasis lesions, occasional break outs, just to name a few.

It’s a Gentle but Effective Makeup Remover

Many makeup removers contain chemicals and synthetic ingredients, which you may want to avoid if you prefer an all-natural beauty regimen. Plus, some of these chemicals can irritate or dry out your skin, especially if it’s sensitive. When removing eye makeup in particular, you want to be careful not to use anything too harsh. Fortunately, Aloe Vera gel thoroughly removes makeup but is gentle on your skin.

It Can Nourish Your Skin While You Sleep

To give your skin a little moisture boost, you can apply a hydrating mask made from Aloe Vera gel, cucumber and egg white. Put it on just before you go to bed, and leave it on while you sleep for an intensive moisturizing treatment that will leave your skin refreshed and renewed when you wake up. In the morning, apply Mill Creek Aloe Vera cream that contains 80% pure Aloe Vera, vitamins A, B, C, and E to soothe, rehydrate, and soften your skin.

Things to Consider

If you want to make your own aloe-based product, be sure you’re using pure, natural Aloe Vera gel, as other formulations can have added fragrances and dyes. On BeautyUniverse.com, you can find 99% pure concentrated Aloe Vera gel, which you can use by itself or combined with other natural ingredients for effective, all-natural beauty treatments. We also offer Aloe Vera shampoo and conditioner for your hair which is a mild formula with Aloe Vera, Vitamin E, Keratin and Argan Oil. It soothes dry scalp, hydrates and softens your hair. Deodorants with Aloe Vera, such as the one by Mill Creek Botanicals, are also uniquely effective against odor causing bacteria.
