SAEDNEWS: One of the plants with numerous benefits for the skin is aloe vera. One of the common questions we receive daily is how to use aloe vera for the skin. In this article, we decided to share how you can use this beneficial plant for your skin.
According to SAEDNEWS, Facial skin requires care and the use of skincare products to stay beautiful and youthful. Sometimes, using natural ingredients and plants can solve all your skin problems.
One important point to mention is that some people use aloe vera incorrectly, which is why they fail to see its positive effects on their skin. In fact, the way aloe vera is used plays a significant role in its effectiveness.
Many people prefer to use aloe vera directly without mixing it or turning it into a mask. For this, simply extract the aloe vera gel directly from the stem.
Typically, the gel between the two stems is enough. You should mix and stir this gel until it becomes smooth. Now, apply the gel to your face before bed and massage it in. Wash your face the next morning.
If you have dry facial skin and want to make it soft and smooth, you will need an aloe vera mask. You can prepare this face mask by mixing aloe vera gel with honey and cucumber.
When these three ingredients are combined, they form an excellent moisturizer. If you apply this mixture to your face for a while, your skin will become soft and smooth. Combine one cucumber with one tablespoon of honey and some aloe vera. Then, apply this mixture to your face and wash it off after 20 minutes.
Some people's skin is so oily that they prefer to use aloe vera to help balance it and reduce excess oil. For this, we recommend using a mask.
An aloe vera mask will help absorb the excess oil from your skin and also prevent acne. To make this mask, simply pour some aloe vera gel into a bowl and add 10-12 drops of tea tree oil.
Mix the ingredients well and apply the mixture to your face. Let it stay on your skin for about 15 minutes, then rinse it off.
In response to the question of how long aloe vera gel should stay on the skin, the answer largely depends on your needs and skin type. For example, many people prefer to see results quickly, so they leave the gel on their skin overnight. This method is fine as long as it's done under the guidance of a dermatologist. However, in general, the following timing is recommended for using aloe vera gel:
For normal skin: 30 minutes or overnight
For dry skin: 20 minutes
For oily skin: 15 minutes
For sensitive skin: 15 minutes
