Ingredients

Aloe vera is a cactus-like plant that grows in desert regions around the world. Its leaves produce a gel that is rich in vitamins A, C, E, and B12.

Using aloe vera on the skin has benefits because:

• its anti-inflammatory properties can reduce pain, swelling, and soreness of wounds or injuries
• it supports the production and release of collagen
• it can speed up wound healing time and limits scarring
• it reduces the healing time of first-degree and second-degree burns
• it is effective in treating fungal and bacterial infections
• it has an antioxidant effect that can help repair sun damage and slow down the ageing process of the skin
• it protects the skin from the damaging effects of radiation therapy
• it contains 98% water, which helps moisturise, soothe, and hydrate the skin
• it helps to make the skin more flexible and supple, rather than stiff and leathery
• It has a cooling effect on rashes or sunburn
