Best Skin Care Tips and Treatments Guest Article: The Benefits Of Using Aloe Vera For Skin Care And More

BY ELIZABETH ROCCHINO

Aloe vera has been used for a host of purposes since the ancient Egyptians called it the “plant of immortality.”

Since then, its uses have become more targeted and medicinal, and it's one of the leading therapies for sunburns.

Aloe vera is a cactus plant that belongs to the Liliaceae family. It grows in dry climates such as those found in parts of Africa and India and has been used medicinally for centuries.

Aloe leaves secrete a clear gel that when broken off from the rest of the plant that can be applied topically to heal wounds and soothe skin.

Various studies have been conducted to examine the benefits of the aloe vera plant and it was found out that aloe vera does in fact have several properties that are effective in treating a variety of skin conditions, from flaky or dry skin, cosmetic ailments, hair and scalp problems to many more.

It is also said to be useful in treating wounds and burns, minor skin infections, cysts, diabetes, and elevated blood lipids in humans, and shows some promise in treating more serious and persistent conditions such as eczema, genital herpes, dandruff, psoriasis, canker sores, skin ulcers and others, according to the Mayo Clinic.

Here are 8 benefits of using aloe vera gel:

1. It treats sunburn.
Aloe Vera helps with sunburn through its powerful healing activity at the epithelial level of the skin, a layer of cells that cover the body. It acts as a protective layer on the skin and helps replenish its moisture. Because of its nutritional qualities and antioxidant properties, the skin heals quicker.

2. It acts as a moisturizer.
Aloe moisturizes the skin without giving it a greasy feel, so it`s perfect for anyone with an oily skin complexion. For women who use mineral-based make-up, aloe vera acts as a moisturizer and is great for the face prior to the application to prevents skin drying. For men: Aloe vera gel can be used as an aftershave treatment as its healing properties can treat small cuts caused by shaving.


3. It treats acne.
Aloe vera gel contains two hormones: Auxin and Gibberellins. These two hormones provide wound healing and anti-inflammatory properties that reduce skin inflammation. Giberellin in aloe vera acts as a growth hormone stimulating the growth of new cells. It allows the skin to heal quickly and naturally with minimal scarring.

Aloe is soothing and can reduce skin inflammations, blistering and itchiness, while helping the skin to heal more rapidly. Additionally, in Ayurvedic medicine, Aloe is used to effectively heal chronic skin problems, such as psoriasis, acne and eczema.

4. It fights aging.
As we age, everyone begins to worry about the appearance of fine lines and the loss of elasticity in their skin. Aloe leaves contain a plethora of antioxidants including, beta carotene, vitamin C and E that can help improve the skin's natural firmness and keep the skin hydrated.

Skin Treatments Article: Shea Butter Benefits and Uses

Skin Treatments Guest Article: Shea Butter Benefits and Uses

Introduction to Shea Butter?
Shea Butter has been around for quite some time, centuries in fact.  Shea Butter is local to Africa, which is where it is used the most for its benefits to skin and hair. Recently, though, it seems as though Shea Butter's benefits have been discovered off continent. This is because Shea Butter is beneficial to all people, races and nationalities, not just any one group! You can find Shea Butter in its pure form, or as an ingredient in other products.

What is Shea Butter?
Shea Butter is only found in Africa.  It is extracted from the seeds of the Shea-Karite tree. These seeds or nuts are then removed of their outer shell.  These nuts are then crushed by hand so that they can be slowly roasted into a nice butter.  After this is done, it is kneaded by hand in large basin of water to separate the oils. It's this fatty acid that gives Shea Butter its unique natural restorative properties and makes it far superior to other organic butters. Finally, the Shea Butter is removed off the top of the pot, and cooled until it hardens.

Shea Butter is an all natural organic product (edible), and as a result one will vary slightly from another in smell, appearance, and quality.  The majority of the Shea Butter variation found will depend on where the Shea Butter is produced and how or if the Shea Butter is refined.

Shea Butter Appearance & Composition?
Shea butter should be yellowish or ivory colored. White Shea Butter can be found, and usually has this color because it has been highly refined.  Heavily Rooted does not endorse refined Shea Butter because it's original restorative properties would have diminished.

How Does or Should Shea Butter Smell?
Shea Butter is a natural organic product, and thus has a natural nutty smell. This smell isn't unpleasant to most, but some manufactures may include a fragrance to counter the natural smell of the Shea Butter. If you have an unrefined Shea Butter that has no smell, it is probably old.  This is because Shea Butter loses its smell over time.  Once the smell is gone, it is best to dispose of the remaining Shea Butter.

For unrefined Shea Butter, the natural smell is removed during the refining process  just like most of the natural and organic restorative properties the Shea Butter once held.

Is all Shea Butter the same?
No, not all Shea Butter is the same. As you look deeper into Shea Butter you will find two major categories.  unrefined Shea Butter, and refined Shea Butter.  The difference lies in how the Shea Butter is extracted from the nut of the Shea-Karite tree as detailed earlier.

Unrefined Shea Butter is extracted in the process detailed above, using water.  This is done usually by hand in an African village, but will leave many of the natural restorative properties in the Shea Butter.
Refined Shea Butter may be treated with chemicals that remove color and it's natural smell, rather than using water.  These chemicals tend to strip not just the smell and color, but many of the restorative qualities that make Shea Butter advantageous over so many other butters.

Shea Butter Uses?
Shea Butter is often used as a base for medical ointments, and has been claimed to have anti-inflammatory properties. Shea Butter is also claimed to be effective treatment for the following conditions: fading scars, eczema, burns, rashes, dry skin (moisturizer), sun burn, skin peeling, dark spots, skin discolorations, blemishes, wrinkles, soften skin, chapped lips, stretch marks (pregnancy), wrinkles, hair luster and irritation from psoriasis.

Shea Butter is effective in at least four categories: Anti Aging, Healing Aide, Prevention, Skin Protection.

5 Benefits of Exfoliating your Skin

Exfoliating is the best way to keep your skin soft…

and looking young so here are 5 quick benefits…But first what is exfoliating ?

“Exfoliation is the removal of dead skin cells that collect on the outer surface of the skin. Dead skin cells are buffed off with an abrasive  substance, example a body scrub in which they use salt sugar or coffee grounds.”

Skin brushing, exfoliating cloths and gloves are also used as a method of exfoliation and it produces good blood circulation.

For your face I suggest to purchase very gentle exfoliant,  look for products that contain natural ingredients and that are specifically used for face. It’s plenty on the market to choose from just be cautious of anything that uses nut shells some are just too abrasive on the skin and can damage it.

My favorite method of exfoliating is using the recycled bath & shower gloves by http://www.ecotools.com I found them to be gentle enough for my face and body use with your favorite cleanser. If you have dry sensitive skin exfoliate once a week if your more combination skin a few times a week is recommended but if you have oily skin 5 times a week or more will produce great benefits. Be sure not to over do it pay attention to your skin and how it feels.

 Here are my 5 Benefits of Exfoliating your Skin

1. Exfoliating keeps the skin soft and glowing
2. Buffing the dead skin away will keep your pores from clogging which keeps acne under control
3. Exfoliating speeds up your skins natural renewal process and helps your moisturizer penetrate into the skin deeper
4. removal of dead skin cells helps with skin discoloration (uneven tone)
5. routine exfoliation leads to visibly brighter skin and it keeps fine lines and wrinkles in check
