Some of the Benefits of Aloe Vera include:

1. Soothe Sunburns and Skin Injuries

Aloe vera helps soothe sunburns as well as skin injuries by boosting collagen production and cross-linking. This reduces the resulting scar tissue as well as speeds up healing time for wounds. Aloe also has compounds such as anthraquinones and aloin which are antioxidant and anti-inflammatory and can ease discomfort and speed up healing.

2. Moisturizing Skin

Aloe vera is a source of humectants (substances that draw liquid from outside or deeper inside the skin) It is believed to be particularly beneficial for people with dry or irritated skin. Aloe specifically contains mucopolysaccharides which help to bind moisture on the surface of your face. It also provides a cohesive effect by adhering to epidermal skin cells flaking off which results in soft skin and better skin integrity.

3. Fading Dark Spots and Stretch Marks

There are two components in aloe that can reduce stretch marks and dark spots, aloesin and aloin. In the results of a study, the aloesin extract is applied 4 times a day for 15 days and proved beneficial in the treatment of post-acne as well as UV-induced hyperpigmentation. A different study discovered that aloin shattered melanin cells (an overproduction of which can cause dark spots to develop) in cells with pigmentation by inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase which is an enzyme that is responsible for the production of melanin.

4. Management of Acne

Aloe vera is a natural source of salicylic acid as well as urea nitrogen, cinnamic acid, phenols, and sulfur, all of which hinder the growth of bacteria, fungi and viruses. Salicylic acid is one of the most effective ways to avoid acne because it removes dead skin cells from the skin’s outer layers and reduces inflammation and redness.

5. Treatment for skin conditions

Psoriasis flare-ups, an inflammatory condition that can cause itchy, red and scaly patches – can be better controlled with aloe vera added to the mix, due to the anti-inflammatory qualities it has. Eczema is another dermatological condition which causes the skin to turn itchy and red and susceptible to fungal and bacterial infections Aloe is antibacterial, antiseptic as well as anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties that can help ease eczema by hydrating it and shielding it from harmful substances.

6. Aging Slowly: Age-related Signs

Since aloe vera is a source of vitamin C and E It makes sense that it could aid in preventing the creation of free radicals. These are the substances that cause cell destruction. Additionally, salicylic acid acts as a mild exfoliant. When the dead skin cells have been cleared of your face the other products for your skin may be able to penetrate more deeply into the skin and perform their job more efficiently as a result.
