Aloe vera was referred as ‘Wand of the heaven' by the ancient Greeks, and the spiky leaved plant is sure living up to its nickname!

Here's how you can put this heavenly plant to some use on a daily basis.

Makeup Remover

Some makeup removers tend to have harmful chemicals that could have a weird reaction on your skin. However, you need to get rid of that gorgeous smoky eye makeup you spent an hour on, before you go to bed. Instead of spending so much on a perfect makeup remover that is made up of ‘natural ingredients', make use of this blessing in disguise! Just apply some aloe vera gel on your eyes and wipe it away with a cotton ball. Tada!  Off comes that makeup.

Reduces Hair Fall

Aloe vera's composition is similar to that of Keratin. Before you ask, Keratin is the primary protein of hair, which is why you hear a lot of shampoo advertisements using the word Keratin so often.

Using aloe in a hair mask can give you really bouncy and soft locks!

Weight Loss

Aloe vera tastes really bitter unless mixed with something sweet to neutralize its taste. What you can do is, remove the gel and dice the leaves into small pieces, blend it well with a fruit which is considerably sweet. If you don't want to mix it with a fruit, put some honey in it and it will do just the trick.
