The value of plant juice

Two components of aloe are widely used in cosmetology:

• Juice. Rich in calcium, potassium, chromium and iron.
• The gel is a transparent substance with a large amount of antioxidants.

This gift of nature eliminates dryness well, perfectly cleanses and heals scratches, peeling, and burns. The plant extract is included in the structure of many creams that have moisturizing properties. It is present in tanning lotions. The skin perfectly absorbs the juice of the plant. What are the benefits of aloe juice for the skin? Actions differ in their beneficialness in different aspects:

• Assists in the synthesis of collagen and elastin.
• Saturates cells with oxygen.
• Improves the strength of the epidermis.
• Excellent moisturizer.
• Has a rejuvenating effect.

Aloe saturates the skin with vitamins, antioxidants and minerals, protecting against harmful effects. The juice of the plant encourages the skin to produce collagen, which slows down the process of skin aging.

Aloe juice is very beneficial for the skin around the eyes. It is able to penetrate into the deepest layers of the dermis and remain there for a long time. In the unequal fight against old age, this is an indispensable tool.

Plant juice

In cosmetology, the juice of a plant that is at least three years old is used. It is at this age that aloe gains its strength. The older it is, the more useful elements it contains.

Features of preparing juice for skin:

1. Choose a thicker leaf from the flower. They cut it off.
2. Take a napkin or a piece of gauze and wrap the sheet.
3. Place on the bottom shelf in the refrigerator. This should definitely be done. A cut leaf in a cool and dark environment begins to actively produce biological stimulants. Do not put the sheet in a plastic bag, as it must breathe.
4. After two weeks, they take it out and wash it thoroughly.
5. Squeeze the juice into a vessel.
6. All. The juice can be used for its intended purpose.

The resulting product is safely frozen. At the same time, it does not lose its miraculous properties. The best helpers in the fight against bags under the eyes are ice cubes with aloe juice.

Features of the dermis around the eyes

This area is the most delicate. He is in tension for almost 16 hours a day (constant blinking, squinting and facial expressions). The skin in this area is thinner than in other areas of the face. It lacks fatty tissue in which nutrients would accumulate.

But the fluid in the body safely collects around the eyes, forming bags and stretching the skin.

The dermis around the eyes is deprived of sebaceous glands, which produce oil and naturally nourish, soften and protect the epidermis from aging and negative influences.

Causes of deterioration of the skin around the eyes

Home remedies containing aloe perfectly help the most unprotected and vulnerable part of our face - the skin around the eyes, and save from wrinkles.

Why is she most susceptible to negative influence?

• The integument around the eyes is very thin, differing from the thickness of the skin on the entire face by as much as 4 times.
• There is no fat layer underneath that would retain the substances necessary to nourish the skin. Also, there are no sebaceous glands, collagen and elastin near the eyes - this is the reason the skin ages here earlier than in other places.
• In addition, the area around the eyes is not protected in any way from the sun, dust, or wind.
• The eyes blink many times during the day, while the skin stretches and contracts the same number of times, that is, it experiences great tension.
• During sleep, fluid often stagnates in the area under the eyes, which is why swelling appears. They look ugly and stretch the skin at the same time. When using masks to treat them, you need to remember that swelling can not only be a cosmetic defect, but also be a consequence of various diseases (kidney disease, heart disease).

Aloe will help cope with the consequences and improve your appearance. It contains two main components that are used for homemade masks: the juice, which is found in the green part of the leaf, and the gel, which makes up the “pulp” of the plant leaf. They have the same benefits, as they contain iron, calcium, chromium, sodium, manganese, zinc and many other trace elements.
