Aloe Vera For Your Night Beauty Routine

Posted by Green Blossoms Posted on: 05/17/10

Aloe Vera For Your Night Beauty Routine

As you may already know, aloe vera is a wonder plant. It has been touted for so many uses:  anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving and more. The gel or sap found within the aloe vera plant’s green leaves is said to have remarkable calming and healing properties — no wonder it’s a popular ingredient in many beauty products! Because aloe vera contains vitamins and minerals, enzymes, amino acids, natural sugars and agents, it has amazing healing properties. Aside from this, aloe vera is great for the skin. If you want healthy, youthful, radiant skin then aloe vera is your best choice.

 

Check out some of its benefits:

  • It can give your skin a smooth, cool and clean feel, and it can also help firm up the skin.
  • It possesses skin moisturizing properties that makes skin soft and radiant.
  • It can help diminish wrinkles, acne, pimples, age spots and blemishes.
  • It can lighten dark spots on the face.
  • It can help minimize cracked and dry skin.
  • It acts as a natural barrier and can shield skin from dangerous toxins.
  • It can relieve heat on the skin caused by sunburn.

Starting today, why not make aloe vera a regular part of your nightly skin care? Here’s a night cream for maintaining that youthful, radiant glow.  It’s suitable for all skin types and unlike other recipes that are good only for one-time use, this recipe is great for several uses. Just keep the cream refrigerated for up to 7 days!

Soothing Aloe Face Night Cream

Ingredients:
1. 1/4 cup aloe vera gel
2. 1/4 cup chopped cucumber (without the peel)
3. 1/4 cup distilled water

Directions:
1. Mix ingredients into a blender until smooth.
2. Smooth the mixture over your face before going to sleep and leave overnight.
3. Rinse your face with warm water in the morning.

Enjoy and have a great weekend!
