Summer days mean more time outdoors, whether you're lounging by the pool, picnicking with friends and family, or watching movies beneath the starlight. While you want to enjoy these pleasant times outside, however, sometimes nature can make that difficult. Painful sunburn, itchy bug bites and dehydration are just a few obstacles summer puts in your way. Fortunately, Aloette is here to help you survive the summer with healthy, radiant skin.
Soothe Painful Sunburns
It's important to protect your skin with moisturizers and sunscreen containing SPF, like our own Cellular Day Defense, but prolonged exposure without the right protection can often result in painful sunburns. When that happens, turn to soothing Aloe Vera to help your skin recover. One of the most popular and effective natural skin care remedies, Aloe Vera is renowned for its healing and hydrating properties, and certified Aloe from the International Aloe Science Council is used in most Aloette products. In fact, it's where we get our name!
>>Recommended for Sunburns: Spray on Nutri-Hydrating Mist, made with 90 percent Aloe Vera, to soothe and cool hot, sunburned skin.
Reduce Inflammation From Bug Bites
Aloe Vera can also be used to treat skin after a painful insect sting or bite. Aloe helps restore the skin's natural pH balance, as well as reduce inflammation. Of course, if you are having any trouble breathing after a bug bite (especially a bee sting), immediately see a doctor, as you may be having an allergic reaction.
>>Recommended for Insect Bites: Rub a dollop of Visible Aid Skin Restoring Cream, made with 60 percent Aloe Vera, on the affected area to help calm skin and relieve any irritation.
Keep Skin Hydrated
When your body perspires to keep itself cool, you lose much needed water. In addition to drinking the recommended eight glasses of water a day, also keep on hand body misters and/or sprays to help hydrate the skin during and after workouts or extended periods outside in the sun.
>>Recommended for Dehydrated Skin: Keep Skin Drench Energizing Mist with you – especially when you know you're going to be working up a sweat – to help maintain hydration and restore essential amino acids and minerals to your skin.
Reduce the Appearance of Cellulite
Most women suffer from a condition called cellulite, also known as dimpled or orange peel skin, that unfortunately can't be hidden once bathing suit season rolls around. Exercise regularly (at least 30 minutes of aerobic activity five days a week), eat a balanced diet, and make sure the affected skin areas remain hydrated to help reduce the orange peel appearance.
>>Recommended to Reduce the Appearance of Cellulite: Massage a generous amount of Slimming Meso-Firm Contouring Creme, featuring such cellulite-targeted ingredients as caffeine and Deoxycholic acid, on affected areas to see an improvement in your skin's appearance.
