How to Use It Well

  • Use it as-is: Apply a small amount to clean skin for lightweight hydration and a fresh, soothing feel.
  • Or use it in recipes: Blend into DIY gels, masks, mists, and water-based creations to add hydration and slip. If pairing with oils: mix well (separation can be normal).
  • For an extra cooling feel: Store it in the fridge and apply straight from cool storage - especially nice after sun, shaving, or whenever skin feels overheated.

🌿 What Is Aloe Vera?

Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis miller) is a succulent plant prized for the clear gel stored inside its thick leaves.

This inner leaf gel is composed mostly of water, along with naturally occurring polysaccharides, vitamins, minerals, and soothing compounds.

Because of its calming and hydrating qualities, aloe has been used for centuries in traditional wellness practices and remains one of the most popular ingredients in modern skincare.

Real aloe, real results

Our Aloe Vera Gel is made from real Aloe barbadensis leaf juice and contains over 97% pure aloe juice, giving it a clean, refreshing feel with a naturally smooth finish.

Use it as a simple hydrating gel on its own, or incorporate it into your DIY creations.

Its minimalist, water-based formula pairs beautifully with hydrosols and water-based actives, and can be combined with oils in DIY blends (in this case separation is normal, mix before use).

Many aloe gels are made from dehydrated aloe powder, not ours.

During dehydration and reconstitution, some of aloe’s original plant character can be lost - including the fresh, soothing feel people love.

Using real juice allows us to offer a gel that feels truer to the plant - and simply more pleasant to use.
