Also known as: Aloe Barbadensis, Aloe Gel
Aloe vera gel contains polysaccharides, vitamins, and amino acids that provide hydration, soothing, and mild anti-inflammatory benefits. It is widely used in after-sun products, lightweight moisturisers, and soothing serums. The inner leaf gel is non-comedogenic and well-tolerated by sensitive skin. Its mucopolysaccharides help bind moisture to the skin.
