Aloe vera is more than just a plant! Its amazing properties have been utilised for health and beauty for thousands of years and it’s just as amazing today as it was all those years ago. The clear gel taken from the inside of the leaves is packed with healthy vitamins, minerals and powerful anti-oxidants making it super beneficial for the skin. So, exactly how can you harness its extensive uses?
1. Soothe sunburn
We’ve all been there; had a little too much fun in the sun and finished the day with an unwelcome red glow on our skin. Soothing sunburnt skin with aloe vera is one of its most popular uses due to its anti-inflammatory properties and its cool, refreshing feel on the skin.
2. Moisturise your skin
Aloe vera has an incredibly high-water content, so it works wonders when used as a moisturiser – especially for those with dehydrated skin. It doesn’t feel greasy when applied so it’s a match made in heaven for those with oily skin too. Bonus!

3. Use as a shaving gel
Are you tired of hunting for a shaving gel which gives you an incredible close, moisturising shave? If so, you’ll be pleased to know you can stop your hunt now. Aloe vera not only helps you achieve beautiful, smooth skin but it can protect against razor burn and cuts too.
4. Remove makeup
Removing your makeup at the end of the day is rule number one when it comes to looking after your skin. Aloe vera is gentle enough to use around the delicate eye area and will leave your skin feeling cleansed and hydrated all in one go.
5. Create an at-home eye mask
Puffy, tired looking eyes are not a good look! For a quick at-home remedy, try soaking a couple of cotton wool balls in aloe vera and popping them into the fridge for twenty minutes. Once they have cooled, sit back, relax and place the cotton balls on closed eyelids. Let the aloe vera work its magic – you’ll thank us for it later!
It seems like aloe vera can do anything, why not test it out today?
