Aloe Vera and its actions on wrinkles
Aloe Vera is well known for its benefits for the face, particularly wrinkles. You should know that there are two types of wrinkles:
- static wrinkles
- dynamic wrinkles
Static wrinkles are caused by several factors that do not necessarily depend on us, namely heredity, the environment in which we live, our lifestyle habits or even aging.
Dynamic wrinkles on the other hand are wrinkles that form based on the movement of the muscles in our face. They are also called expression lines. They are often found on the smile line, at the exposed corners of the nose or face. They are mainly formed by the sun and aging and require a lot of care and hydration to make them disappear a little. It is very important to drink plenty of water during the day (at least 1.5L).
Aloe Vera also contains several properties composed of nutrients and vitamins A, C and E well known for the repair and healing of damaged skin. For this, thanks to all its components, it will allow the skin to have more elasticity allowing it to reduce wrinkles if it is used correctly.
It has been scientifically proven that this plant is one of the best natural moisturizers available in addition to being a nourishing agent that our skin needs in order to become smoother and elastic. It is also a very good antibacterial and in addition to its healing benefits, Aloe Vera also protects the skin from external aggressions such as the sun, pollution, wind, etc.

Granted, others take longer than some, but the results are always satisfying. Thanks to its vitamins, enzymes and other virtues of Aloe Vera, dead skin will be eliminated and regeneration processes will be accelerated.

To perfect your skin, especially those of the face, the use of the plant is highly recommended. You can use it more than once a day to get results quickly and use it as a homemade mask by mixing it with other ingredients to get a more satisfactory result.
What are the different properties of Aloe Vera?
Widely used for body and facial care, Aloe Vera actually has miraculous properties to calm eczema, fungal infections or even burns. Easily identifiable by its thick and fatty leaves, it has thorns located all along the edges of the leaf. The plant therefore has several health benefits in addition to being a powerful laxative. The properties of Aloe Vera gel are very multiple. First of all, it hydrates, regenerates and heals any type of burn or irritation. It also has a depurative, anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic action. This is why it has been used for years and in different ways. Pharmaceutical companies specializing in well-being and natural products almost always use it among the ingredients of their products.
How to extract Aloe gel?
The best way to use Aloe Vera properly is to extract its gel. To do this, you must be careful to avoid having several residues on the body or face.
You should start by taking two or three leaves of the plant and washing them well. Then it is very important to remove the thorns on the sides with a knife and then slice the leaf in half. You then need to take a spoon to extract all the gel on the sheet and put it in a container.
In order to obtain a cream without residue, it is important to put it in a blender and finally put the liquid obtained in a bottle or an airtight glass that can be stored in the fridge.
When to use Aloe Vera?
Aloe Vera is mainly used in the cosmetic field thanks to its moisturizing and regenerating benefits, but it is also used to treat other disorders such as dermatological and intestinal problems. As the juice of the plant is a powerful laxative, it helps relieve people who often suffer from constipation.
In these cases, they are sold in the form of capsules ideally consumed before lunch and dinner. Aloe Vera gel is mainly for external use unlike the juice reserved for internal use, notably capsules.
To soothe burns, ulcers, wrinkles or stains on the body, the gel is the most used part because of its restorative and healing properties.
Although Aloe Vera has several benefits, you still need to be careful when using it. Excess plant juice can lead to severe diarrhea, but also cause a loss of potassium, which is one of the important minerals in our body. It is also not very recommended for pregnant women except the gel which is most often for external use.
