Notes

  • Vitamin A and C in mangoes play an essential role in collagen production. Collagen is a necessary protein to keep your skin cells healthy.
  • It helps protect your body’s connective tissues and the blood vessels, thereby enhancing your skin's glow and elasticity, and slowing down the natural aging process.
  • Bradykinesia, an enzyme found in aloe vera, helps reduce inflammation when topically applied.
