Summer Skin Savior: Aloe Vera
Summers can be harsh on our skin, but there’s a natural solution to combat the scorching heat and protect your skin from sunburns and irritation – Aloe vera. This cooling agent is a must-have for your skincare routine, offering a range of benefits to keep your skin healthy and refreshed. Arthi Raguram, Founder of Deyga, shares five reasons to incorporate aloe vera into your summer skincare:
- Soothes sunburns: Aloe vera provides instant relief to inflamed and sunburned skin. Its cooling and anti-inflammatory properties soothe redness and swelling. For better results, refrigerate aloe vera gel and apply it to the affected areas.
- Helps prevent acne: Aloe vera’s antibacterial properties protect the skin from germs and effectively reduce acne. It fights against dirt and grime, cleansing the pores and treating acne marks and scars.
- Hydrates the skin: Acting as a humectant, aloe vera moisturizes the skin, making it softer and more supple. During the summer, when dryness and itching are common, aloe vera’s anti-inflammatory and hydrating properties provide deep hydration.
- Light moisturizer for oily skin: If you have oily skin, aloe vera is an ideal light moisturizer. It easily penetrates the skin without clogging pores or feeling heavy. Additionally, it acts as a primer, allowing makeup to sit comfortably on the skin.
- Tames frizzy hair: Aloe vera is not just beneficial for the skin; it also works wonders for your hair. Apply some aloe vera gel with a fishtail comb to achieve a sleek hair look and tame frizz.
Make aloe vera an essential part of your summer skincare routine and enjoy its natural goodness for healthier and happier skin.
