I very distinctly remember being in elementary school when I learned about the powers of aloe vera. It was the magical ingredient that could help soothe a sunburn - and it was a plant. I found it odd,and that it smelled weird, but I vividly remember being told to stay absent from the packaged green goo labeled "aloe vera gel" at the store and opt for the genuine thing.
Most everyone knows that aloe has mighty healing properties, and so yes,it is mighty for sunburns, but it can also help heal a variety of other things, or such as acne and scars. It's even been known to help grow longer lashes when mixed with castor oil. And adding it into a face mask is a surefire way to serene inflamed,irritated skin. While the plant is always best, there are plenty of organic, or natural aloe vera gel products out there that can catch the job done,too.
