Aloe Vera Is Good for Sunburn

We all have heard that aloe vera is good for sunburn, but why? It's not just folk wisdom. Studies show that a compound in aloe called aloin is responsible for the plant's anti-inflammatory benefits. Aloe vera or aloe vera products, like Aloe Up sun creams, lotions, and sprays, can also help moisturize the skin and prevent the skin peeling that sometimes happens with sunburns. Aloin, also called aloe latex, is a naturally occurring chemical present between the outer coating and inner flesh of aloe vera plants. This is why using an aloe plant for sunburn, insect bites, and rashes provides healing, soothing, and moisturizing relief to your damaged skin.

Discover Why Aloe Vera Is Good for Sunburn

Using an aloe plant for sunburn has been traditional folk medicine for centuries in areas where this succulent plant grows naturally, but did you know that science now backs up what our grandparents and elders always told us about this healing plant? That's right! Studies prove Grandma was right! So how does aloe vera help sunburn? Aloe vera is good for sunburn because it:

Reduces inflammation: The pain, tightness, redness, itching, burning, and peeling caused by sunburn is reduced by a natural anti-inflammatory chemical called bradykinase, which reduces inflammation when applied topically (directly to the skin). In addition, aloe inhibits the cyclooxygenase pathway and reduces prostaglandin E2 production from arachidonic acid, which can increase the symptoms of inflammation if left unblocked.

Stimulates collagen production: Aloe improves the texture and appearance of skin by stimulating collagen production. Collagen improves skin firmness and elasticity.

Contains skin-healthy natural ingredients: With vitamins A, E, and C, aloe is chock full of antioxidants that neutralize the free radicals that cause sun damage. Aloe also contains salicylic acid, an anti-inflammatory and antiseptic that can reduce the pain of a sunburn and prevent infection.

Use an Aloe Plant for Sunburn

While using an aloe plant for sunburn by directly applying the plant's gel, combining your skincare routine with aloe vera-infused products that are packed with other protective and moisturizing ingredients your skin craves is the best way to achieve smooth, firm, younger-looking skin.
