Aloe Vera – it can be called a miracle plant for your skin. Many skin specialists swear by Aloe Vera and often tell you to make full use of it. Many beauty products have some form of Aloe Vera infusion present in it. The plant is also rich in medicinal properties. Many beauty experts have planted Aloe Vera in their own homes too. It is quite easy to cultivate, so you can have this plant in your house too. If you are someone who keeps in tune with a tight beauty regime and follows many beauty stars, you might already have an Aloe Vera plant in your own home.
If you have an Aloe Vera plant in your home, then extracting the juice from this plant can require a bit of skill. Here are a few ways you can extract the necessary plant material, and make use of it like a face mask:
- The first step is to wash the Aloe Vera plant thoroughly before cutting it.
- Now, use a roller to thump the Aloe Vera leaf gently. This will make it a lot softer.
- After softening the leaf, take the leaf and divide it into two – one of the leaf parts can be preserved, but the other has to be used immediately.
- With the help of a knife, cut the leaf edges. This will help you peel the leaf and then, open it up with ease.
- Slit open the leaf with your hands. If it’s too slippery or you think it might get messy, use a knife for precision.
- With a spoon, scrape the juice out and then, collect it and place it in a glass jar.
- You can now apply the juice on your face. Gently rub it in with your fingers. Rub the leaf too, if you want.
- The mask should stay for about 15-20 minutes on your face.
- Once the mask gets dry, you have to peel it and wash it off with water. Please don’t use soap or gel. It will reduce the efficiency of the face pack.
- With a neat towel, dry your face with a patting motion. In 20 minutes, you will see a glow on your flawless skin.
Yes, the result of the Aloe Vera face pack will amaze you. You have to put your trust in Mother Nature. It has many harmless and friendly natural products to take care of your skin. You don’t need to go for harmful chemical or synthetic products. Use natural products and your skin will treat you well.
