This summer’s heat wave is not slowing down. The sun is scorching, and the temperatures are high. Sunburns can last for days, no matter how much sunblock you apply. Are you ready to accelerate the healing process? Aloe vera could be the answer.
It has been well known that the clear gel in the leaves of succulent plants is a powerful healer. People from different cultures have used it topically to treat minor ailments such as burns, sores, and cuts for centuries.
Why It Works
This multi-purpose plant can heal sunburns in a number of different ways. Aloe is a water-based extract that hydrates and seals in moisture. This helps reduce peeling after sunburn and speeds up healing. Salicylic acid, anti-inflammatory properties, and antibacterial properties help soothe and protect skin. Aloe also helps to stimulate the production of collagen and hyaluronic acids for soft, hydrated skin. Aloe’s cooling properties can help to reduce irritation and discomfort. Are you ready to give it a try?
