Aloe Vera Gel can be applied topically to skin abrasions, burns, ulcers, minor wounds & to soothe itchy skin. Aloe vera juice contains lignins that have the capacity to carry moisture across the epidermis & as such this gel is moisturising to dry & rough skin. Aloe also greatly aids the continual regeneration of new skin cells. Our cold-extracted Aloe Vera Gel is sourced from only the highest quality raw materials. The type of aloe vera we use is Aloe Barbadensis Miller. This product can also be used as a sun screen & has a protection factor of around 8.
