Benefits of Aloe Vera♡

Hey bloggers, I'm back with another post. So recently I have had a lot of breakouts, I've been experiencing these breakouts for a very long time now and I've literally tried everything but it seems to go away for a couple weeks and then come back again, I started searching online about good face masks for skin like mine and saw that a lot of people compliment Aloe Vera and oh my gosh guys this actually is so good for the skin! Since I have started using Aloe Vera for my face my skin seems a lot smoother and my spots have almost gone, obviously need to use it for couple weeks to actually tell you in-depth and to see a change however it does seem to give results quicker. Aloe vera is extensively used in beauty products and for other uses, over time aloe vera has seamlessly integrated itself into everything we use. But what makes this miracle plant so distinguishable? 
Down below I have listed different ways to use aloe vera, this is my researched information and my own personal ways that I've been using it too.


Aloe Vera for Dry Skin - 


- Take some aloe vera
- A pinch of turmeric
- A teaspoon of honey
- A teaspoon of milk
- Few drops of rose water
- Blend this mix together till you get a paste. Apply this to your face and leave in for about 20 minutes or so.


Aloe Vera Scrub - 

- Half a cup of fresh aloe vera gel
- A cup of sugar
- 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
(The sugar will help exfoliate and scrub off dead skin, the aloe vera will deep clean the skin and the lemon will help fade out scars and tan. Stir the 3 ingredients together and use it to scrub both face and body).


Aloe Vera for Acne -

- Take some aloe vera gel
- Blended walnuts (with a flour-like consistency)
- Honey
(Aloe Vera's healing properties coupled with anti-oxidants from honey will leave you with smooth and clear skin).


Aloe Vera for Sensitive Skin - 

- Aloe vera gel
- Cucumber juice
- Yoghurt
- Rose oil 
(Blend them to a paste, apply and leave for around 20 minutes, then rinse it off).


Aloe Vera for Weight-Loss -

How to drink aloe vera juice: The natural taste of aloe vera is so bitter that you wouldn't think of consuming it. So to do this...
- Take the gel, dice it into small pieces and blend
- Mix a bit of this with some other fruit or vegetable juice that's preferably sweet.
- You can also use the leaves of aloe vera, blend them, strain and drink.
(If you find it too bitter then mix it up with honey and drink. You can also add some lemon to this mix.


Aloe Vera for Hairfall -

Aloe vera contains something called proteolytic enzymes which repairs dead skin cells on the scalp. It also acts as a great conditioner and leaves your hair all smooth and shiny. It promotes hair growth, prevents itching on the scalp, reduces dandruff and conditions your hair. Aloe vera has a chemical make up similar to that of keratin and it rejuvenates the hair with its own nutrients, giving it more elasticity and preventing breakage. A good remedy would be to use aloe vera juice and extra virgin coconut oil. Apply this and leave it in for as long as possible for strong, smooth and bouncy hair.
So the question is how to use aloe vera for hair growth...? Well simple, a lot of these remedies involve using fresh aloe vera gel. You can extract your own gel by slicing an aloe vera leaf and scooping out the gel using a spoon. 


 Castor Oil and Aloe Vera for Hair Growth.
Castor oil is an excellent hair growth treatment that helps boost hair while also adding volume. The oil along with aloe vera helps stimulate hair regrowth and also curbs hair fall. This aloe vera treatment helps stimulate hair growth from the dormant hair follicles on your scalp. It also helps nourish and condition your hair strands, preventing breakage and split ends.

YOU WILL NEED:
 - 1 cup fresh aloe vera gel
- 2 tablespoons of castor oil
- 2 tablespoons of fenugreek powder
- Shower cap
- Towel

Process: (1) In a bowl, mix all the ingredients until you get a smooth and consistent paste. (2) Apply this mixture to your scalp and hair. Ensure that you're focusing most on your roots and tips. (3) Once your hair is fully covered in the mixture, cover it with a shower cap. (4) Go to bed with the mixture on. You may wrap a towel around the shower cap for added heat and to keep the shower cap from shifting. (5) In the morning, wash the mixture off with cool water and shampoo. Finish off with conditioner. You should do this 1-2 times a week for best results. You can also combine aloe vera with honey, lemon, egg, coconut milk and shea butter, you can easily search this up on google on how to make these remedies at home.
