Beautiful skin is in your hands. Using natural ingredients to take care of your skin is one of the best investments you can make. Here are 3 tried and tested aloe vera gel recipes to nurture your skin with:

1. Aloe Vera Toner for Smooth Skin

Ever heard of toners? They are an important part of skin care that most people seem to skip over. Toners act as astringents that help tighten your pores, cleanse your skin and smoothen it for a flawless base that you can apply other skin care products on.

  3. To use, pour some of the toner into a circular cotton pad or cotton ball.
  4. Apply the toner all over your clean face.

2. Anti-aging Aloe Vera Face Serum

What is a facial serum? A serum is any skin product that has a gel-like consistency but a higher concentration of active ingredients that penetrate your skin. A serum acts like a high-performance skin treatment and it is often preferred by those with mature skin. But it is never too early to use skin serums! If you are in your 20’s, you can start using serums to delay any signs of aging and to maintain your youthful skin well into your 50’s!

Ingredients:

  • ¼ cup of aloe vera gel (where to get it)
  • 2 teaspoons of evening primrose oil (where to get it)
  • 2 vitamin E capsules (where to get it)

Unfortunately, more and more people are starting to experience adult acne, in what seems to be a never-ending skin-care nightmare. This aloe vera gel for acne is a potent spot treatment that can help reduce acne overnight.
