Alongside the video, Arora wrote: “Skin issue is something that almost everyone in the world resonates with irrespective of their age or gender.

I have to be extremely careful of what I put in my skin cos any wrong product can do more damage than benefit.” Arora said she swears by fresh aloe vera gel. “A natural ingredient that I swear by for my skin is fresh Aloe vera gel right from my very own home garden. Fresh Aloe vera agrees with most of the skin types so anyone can try it. Just cut one piece, slice it open and scoop up the gooey goodness from within and apply it evenly on ur face like a cooling mask. Rinse it with cold water after sometime and voila! Your skin will feel fresh and smooth all day long.”
