Rich in vitamins A, E, and B, plus essential minerals like phosphorus, potassium, calcium, chlorine, iron, and zinc, aloe vera is a cornerstone of natural skincare. It's renowned for its healing, regenerative, moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, and antibiotic properties. In the West Indies, people harvest it fresh from the garden, using its pulp for everything from sunburns and chapped lips to fever blisters, hair and face masks, minor injuries, irritations, and fungal issues.
• Pure, organic aloe vera gel
• Avocado or sweet almond oil
Apply a layer of aloe vera gel (not too thick) to clean skin as a mask. Allow it to fully absorb, then massage in a drop of avocado or almond oil. Head to bed—this is the ultimate way to regenerate your skin overnight.
