What Is Aloe Barbadensis?

Aloe Barbadensis, commonly known as Aloe Vera, is one of the most widely used botanical ingredients in skincare. The clear gel extracted from the succulent leaves contains over 75 active compounds including vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids, and polysaccharides.

Renowned for its soothing and healing properties, Aloe has been used for centuries to calm irritated skin, provide moisture, and support the skin's natural healing processes. It forms a protective layer while delivering hydration to dehydrated skin.
