Aloe vera for wrinkles: how to use it and what to expect

Let's be honest about what Aloe vera can really do, and what it can't.

What is Aloe vera

Aloe vera hydrates, cools and soothes skin, speeding recovery after irritation and sun.

How Aloe vera helps for wrinkles

Wrinkles form as collagen and elastin decline and photo-damage accumulates. Aloe vera approaches the problem from a different angle: aloe vera hydrates, cools and soothes skin, speeding recovery after irritation and sun. As a result, used consistently, it gently improves the skin for wrinkles.

How to use it

• Cleanse with a gentle, non-stripping product.
• Apply aloe vera to dry skin, starting 2–3 times a week.
• Seal with a moisturiser to support the barrier.
• Always use SPF 30+ in the morning.

Precautions

Its light, watery texture suits even oily skin. Daily SPF is the single most effective anti-ageing habit.
