Benefits Of Aloe Vera - Not Just For Sunburn

Benefits of Aloe Vera Skin Gel

One of the hottest natural additives today that is now being added into everything from hand sanitizers to laundry soap is, ironically, something that has already been used for centuries. This substance is the Aloe Vera plant.

Most americans keep the aloe vera plant in their homes to aid in soothing burns and healing cuts. But what many people don't know is that aloe vera's healing properties go way beyond that.  This miracle plant can also help control acne, psoriasis, frostbite and blisters and help maintain healthy beautiful skin.

Also vera also contains a large amount of phytosterols,  which are plant lipids that help improve skin elasticity eliminating he effects of scarring and wrinkles.  Aloe vera gel also has moisturizing properties and also possesses the ability to oxygenate the skin tissue helping it heal faster. This little plant also contains 200 other active biological agents including gycerol, Vitamin E and Zinc.

How To Get Rid of Dark Circles Under The Eye

There are several reasons we get dark circles under our eyes.

Of Course, age is a factor – our skin tends to thin as we get older.

Lack of sleep will also do it.

Stress is another contributor.

Sun exposure is also a factor,

And of course genetics play into it . 

Allergies and hay fever can contribute as well as an Iron deficiency.

So with all that said, what can we do to get rid of them?     

  Well, there are several natural home remedies you can use.  Here are just a few simple ones I have today to share with you.

Put a used teabag (somewhat dried out) over your eyes for about 10 minutes.    The tea can be black tea, green tea or white tea.

 Apply cucumber or potato juice on eye with a cotton ball.

     Apply a mixture of lemon juice and tomato juice on dark circles 2x per day.

    Apply creams that have vitamin E or C in them.

   Apply crushed mint leaves under eyes for 20 minutes.

  Apply cucumber slices to closed eyes for 15 minutes.

So How do we prevent these dark circle ?

Getting enough sleep will help – try to get at least 7 hours of sleep.

NEVER sleep with your makeup on. 

Try not to rub your eyes.

Reducing your salt intake will help as well.

Removing Moles on Face At Home

What Causes Skin Moles?

Skin moles are growths on the skin, often round or oval-shaped with a dark color. The color may however vary to different shades. Some skin moles are flat while others are a bit raised from the skin.


A skin mole is caused by the melanocyte cells in the skin. These cells produce melanin and are responsible for the color of the skin, eyes and hair. It is formed when melanocyte cells do not spread thought the skin but grow in clusters.


Usually melanocyte cells grow normally and so the growth is usually benign. However in certain cases the melanocye cells may start to grow in an abnormal way, which may result in melanoma, a cancer of the skin.


Skin moles are very common. Most of them are present at birth while others appear as the person grows older. Some may also disappear with age. 


Their main causes depend mainly on:


- Heredity
- Exposure to sunlight
- Hormonal changes
- Age
They may become darker.


The principle reason for this is too much exposure to sunlight. Heavy exposure to sunlight during childhood and the teenage years highly increases the chances of developing new skin moles or that current ones increase in size. Sun beds and tanning saloons can also increase their growth.


Our genes determine many factors. If your parents have plenty of skin moles, probably you will have a lot too. Further more a history of skin cancer in your family also increases the risk that a mole may grow or develops into a cancerous growth.


Hormonal changes also make them to grow or new ones to appear. This may more commonly happen during pregnancy, the menopausal stage and during teenage years.
Generally as we get older, some tend to disappear.

Reduce Wrinkles - Use These Natural Home Remedies

Keeping your complexion healthy and radiant is one of the easiest and smartest things you can do for yourself.  And spending a fortune on expensive products these days ,in my opinion,  is just plain unnecessary.

There are plenty of things from the garden, plants in your yard, or basic products found at the supermarket that can moisturize, cleanse, and exfoliate your skin to leave you looking younger and glowing.  

You can get started on your own natural skin care recipes by just opening up your kitchen cupboard.

Learn how to make cleaners,  masks,  facial scrubs, toners, rosacea treatments and much more in just minutes.  Get ready for a more beautiful you ! 

Just to get you started , I’m going to tell you some of the easiest home recipes to try today.  There are so many recipes that I can’t share all them with you , but here’s a few of the basics to get you off to a good start. 

Potato Cleanser (for dry skin or eczema)   Rub your face with a raw slice of potato.  Potatoes contain juice with vitamin C that is mild and soothing.  The juice thoroughly cleanses and toes your skin.  Rinse well and pat dry.

English Tea Astringent ( to cleanse and tone your skin) 

Tea is a very powerful antioxidant found in many beauty  products.   Pick your favorite tea – green, orange, pekoe, jasmine – take ¼ cup boiling water and pour over 2 teabags and allow to steep for at least an hour. Combined the cooled tea with ¼ cup witch hazel and 1 teaspoon lemon juice (lemon juice is optional for oily skin).  Stir mixture well and pour into clean bottle.  Apply to clean skin with cotton ball or pad.

Simple Banana mask  (used for dry skin)  Mash and stir a banana in a bowl until it is smooth and creamy.  Apply to face for approx. 10 minutes.  Rinse well with warm water and pat skin dry.  Discard what you don’t use.

OR  you can also make a banana mask by using 2 teaspoon banana, 1 teaspoon milk and 1 teaspoon honey. Apply to face for approx. 10 minutes. Rinse well with warm water and pat skin dry.   Milk and honey also smooth the skin.

Vitamin E (for wrinkles)  Take the strongest vitamin E tablet you can find and dissolve it in ½ teaspoon boiling water. Let water cool until comfortable to the touch. Add it to a small amount of eye cream – pat gently under the eye and around the mouth.  Vitamin E is a topical antioxidant that’s been proven to prevent oxidation of tissue.

For Enlarged pores, try a packet of raw sugar with enough lemon juice to make it spreadable, and rub into nose and chin area where large pores tend to settle.  Rinse with warm water.  Raw sugar is a natural glycolic acid that loosens dirt and dead skin.

Anti-Aging Skin Care from Home With Alpha Hydroxy

ALPHA HYDROXY, BETA HYDROXY And POLYHYDROXY ACID

              

Skin care products that are on the market today contain Alpha Hydroxy or

Beta Hydroxy Acids and are usually somewhat expensive. They are all the rage since they were launched in the 1980’s.You can achieve the same benefits that are found in these expensive creams using all natural anti-aging skin care from home.

Alpha Hydroxy is primarily derived from fruit and mild products. They work by speeding up the loss of dead skin cells and thinning the stratum corneum (the outer layer of the epidermis).  In the process they create a tingling sensation. The key mechanism of AHA’s is setting off a wound-healing response in the lower dermis, which triggers increased collage production and has a visible anti-wrinkle effect.

The combination of fewer wrinkles, smoother skin, and fresher color can produce a remarkable change in your skin, sometimes in only a few days.

Many exfoliating products now contain PHA’s (Polyhydroxy Acid). They have been chemically modified to be gentler.  Beta Hydroxy, such as salicylic acid, are cousins of AHA but more oil soluble. They are also stronger, more irritating and not as widely used.

Salicylic Acid is a type of Beta Hydroxy (commonly found in acne treatment creams). It penetrates your pores and gets beneath the sebum and dissolves and exfoliates dead skin cells. 

A simple recipe for an effective mask for acne-prone skin is: 

             Mix honey and aloe vera together.  Crush and dissolve an aspirin tablet
             and add to honey and aloe vera.

            Apply to skin for approx. 10-20 minutes. 

This mask helps to  exfoliate the skin, soothes painful pimples and de-plugs any blackheads.

A great recipe for a mask for mature skin is:

              1 teaspoon honey

              A few drops of orange juice

Mix the two together well.  Spread the mixture over entire face, even around the eyes and mouth. 

Leave on for approx. 20 minutes.  Remove with warm water.

If used regularly, it can stave off those fine lines that appear as we get older.
