As well as medicinal benefits, Aloe Vera provides a number of benefits for the skin. The natural ingredients are gentle and beneficial for those with very dry and sensitive skin.

Some of the skin benefits of Aloe Vera include:

• Hydrates and moisturises the skin
• Soothes sore, inflamed or damaged skin
• Softens skin
• Promotes skin renewal

Known by many names around the world, including Medicine Plant, Burn Plant, Plant of Life and the Potted Physician, the extraordinary benefits of Aloe Vera were well known to our ancestors and have been harnessed for use in skin care and medicinal use by many cultures.

The juice from the inner gel of Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbadensis Millar) is one of the most fascinating of all the botanical plant extracts. Modern science has only recently started to unlock the secrets of this wondrous plant and although not all of them are yet known, the ability of Aloe Vera to maintain healthy skin and preserve its beauty has been harnessed by humans for thousands of years.
