Natural Facial Skin Care from the Hollywood Vaults

By Celia Spiers

Natural facial skin care in Hollywood is vital for the actresses and models who want to extend their careers beyond the age of 40. The entertainment industry is constantly searching for health and beauty secrets and they always find them first before the rest of the world know anything about them.

There is no shortage of assets when it comes their way and because of this open check policy the suppliers make a bee line straight for this elite circle. Only the finest products get in through these hallowed halls. The clients are sharp and at the top of their profession. Only positive results will measure up.

Rumors travel at the speed of light in these corridors of lasting beauty and nothing is missed by the trained eyes of the beauticians. They are the elite of the natural facial skin care observatory.

The surgeons knife or the hypodermic needle are the more invasive methods on offer but for many a natural approach to skin care is preferred and aloe vera still maintains a strong hold in the beauty salon. Its repertoire of healthy benefits also extends to remedies for digestive problem, boosting the immune system as well as natural wrinkle prevention.

Used on a daily basis is can put back time with its anti aging ability and should be your first stop for natural wrinkle prevention. It was traditionally used by older generations as a burn remedy. Just split open a 2 inch tip from the Barbadensis Miller Aloe Vera plant and spread the sticky contents over a blister or burn for instant relief. A stream of nutrients also aid the healing process.

The problem with using aloe vera for your natural facial skin care is its tendency to lose its power by oxidization. Its contact with air. Lotions and creams containing aloe vera do not have a great deal of their healing potential left by the time they are actually applied. And then of course they are further deteriorated by exposure. So the problem has always been how to retain this power in the conversion from plant to remedy.

There is evidence from Ancient Egypt that aloe vera was commonly used and a great deal of conjecture has been placed on Cleopatra?s use of it as a beauty aid. (She would have been interested in a natural wrinkle prevention!) It was probably ingested but sufficient facts are not available to explain how the laxative effect of the plant could have been removed. Certainly Cleo would not have tolerated a constant state of the runs! However the Egyptian knowledge of herbal medicine was so extensive that there can be no doubt that a means would have existed.

Now 3000 years later a new method has been discovered so that all the nutrient factor remains. The secret is spreading out gradually. The healing power of aloe vera is now very much within the control of the medical profession in a pill with a pharmaceutical standard attached to it. Ingested (swallowed) it provides an infusion of nutrients to the digestive system and this great natural power can then get to work from the inside. Not just skin deep. Nail and hair condition will visibly improve and the skin soon takes on a natural vibrant glow as a new pliancy develops. It would be difficult to find a cosmetic counter without the name aloe vera on some of the products so you know that its power is widely regarded. You can now take your natural facial skin care to the next level with the truly wondrous qualities of aloe vera. - 15275
