Aloe Vera Soothing Gel 120ml

Aside from being a staple in your mother's medicine cabinet for sunburnt skin, aloe vera has been used by different civilisations for centuries for a range of skin care, health, and medicinal purposes. A cactus plant that naturally grows in arid climates, the succulent-like leaves of the aloe plant house a clear gel that's home to different active compounds, including vitamins, minerals, sugars, enzymes, salicylic acids, and amino acids. Suffice it to say, all of these components have been shown to provide a wide array of benefits for skin care and beyond

"Despite the emergence of many new botanical ingredients in skin care, aloe has been used on the skin for centuries and has proven skin benefits," explains Zeichner. In other words, while it may not be the newest, trendiest skincare ingredient on the market, aloe vera is tried and trusted, and its benefits are backed by plenty of research.
