Aloe vera gel has always been a staple in my beauty regimen. Apart from using it just like a hair mask or face mask, there are a bunch of different ways in which we can use it.
Here in this article, I have shared 11 beauty hacks that we can do with aloe vera gel and it is gonna save some money too. I would suggest you all use store-bought aloe vera gel because of its consistency.
NOTE:-PLEASE DO A PATCH TEST BEFORE APPLYING ANYTHING TO THE SKIN TO SEE IF YOU ARE ALLERGIC TO ANY OF OF THE INGREDIENTS.
1. SLEEPING MASK:-
Sleeping masks are really popular these days. A sleeping mask adds hydration to our skin and doing it makes our skin looks plumper and radiant. But most of these sleeping masks are highly pricy.
We can use aloe vera gel is as a sleeping mask because aloe vera gel is extremely hydrating for the skin.
• TO USE:-
Just take aloe vera gel and apply a thick layer of it. In next day you will wake up with beautiful glowing skin. And it is way cheaper too.
2. FOR FACE SHAVING:-
Aloe vera gel works wonderfully as a lubricant as it creates a barrier between the skin and the razor. It also helps in avoiding any knicks and cuts. It gives the razor a smooth surface and the razor easily glides on the skin. It makes the whole face shaving process very easier and smoother.
3. TO SOOTHE SKIN AFTER SHAVING:-
Aloe vera gel is a great way to calm our skin after shaving. Sometimes our skin can get a little bit irritated after shaving.
Aloe vera gel soothes any kind of skin redness or irritation instantly.
