“Safe, gentle, and natural soap.”

6 benefits of aloe vera on skin
Aloe vera is a famous ingredient in the skincare market. An article by Eating Well shared six ways aloe vera is beneficial to the skin:
Soothing sunburn and skin injuries
- Aloe vera increases collagen synthesis, cross-linking, which soothes skin injuries and sunburn.
Moisturises skin
- Aloe vera contains humectant substances that attract water from the air or deeper into the skin.
Fading dark spots and stretch marks
- Aloesin and aloin, found in aloe vera, are known to fade dark spots and stretch marks.
Managing acne
- Aloe vera contains salicylic acid, urea nitrogen, cinnamic acid, phenols and sulphur, which all inhibit the growth of fungi, bacteria and viruses.
Soothing skin conditions
- Aloe vera has anti-inflammatory properties which benefit people suffering from psoriasis and other conditions that cause flare-ups.
Slowing signs of ageing
- Aloe vera contains both vitamins C and E, which help prevent the formation of free radicals, which are the molecules that cause cell damage.
