Aloe vera is the most underrated plant in skincare. Beyond sunburn relief, it’s a humectant, an anti-inflammatory, an antibacterial, and a gentle exfoliant.
Fresh vs. Bottled
Fresh aloe gel straight from the leaf is more potent than anything in a bottle. Keep a plant on your windowsill. Break off a leaf, scoop out the clear gel, and apply it directly. The bottled stuff works too, but look for products with aloe as the first ingredient and minimal additives.
How to Use It
As a lightweight moisturizer for oily skin. As a soothing mask after exfoliation. Mixed with a drop of tea tree oil for spot treatment. Frozen into ice cubes for morning depuffing. One plant, endless possibilities.
