Celebrities are known for their flawless, age-defying skin, but no one’s complexion comes close to Kourtney Kardashian’s. The mom of three has the nicest skin in Hollywood and credits her glowing face with her holistic lifestyle, which involves using natural organic skincare products and ingredients. In fact, Kourtney swears by this unexpected skincare hack to keep her skin healthy, radiant, and youthful–she applies organic aloe vera to her face!
“If the kids or I get a sunburn, I always use fresh aloe vera applied directly to the skin,” Kourtney reveals on her app and website. “I keep aloe vera plants in my house, too. You can just break off a leaf and squeeze it to get a small amount of gel.”
As for its anti-aging effects, having moisturized skin is one of the best ways to keep wrinkles at bay. After all, they become more prominent and noticeable when your skin is dry. Aloe’s vitamin C properties also help defend the skin against UV rays and prevent photoaging and the other damaging effects free radicals and environmental stressors can cause.
