ALOE VERA You see it listed as a component in half the skincare products on the
shelves these days: Aloe Vera. But this ingredient is actually derived from an
easy-to-grow houseplant--one that many a cook has kept handy in the kitchen and referred
to as a "burn plant." If you should burn yourself, or sustain some other minor
scrape or skin irritation, you can simply break off a piece of Aloe Vera stalk and squeeze
out the gel inside it. Rub this stuff on your injury, and you should feel immediate
relief. Not only that, but Aloe Vera contains antibacterial and antifungal properties--a
true healer.
