Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract

Aloe Vera Leaf Extract

Aloe Vera is skincare's calming classic, a clear leaf gel used for thousands of years.

  • Soothes and calms sensitive skin: acemannan helps calm redness and irritation.
  • Long-lasting hydration: it draws water deep into the skin and holds it there.
  • Fresher, brighter-looking skin: aloe helps revive skin that looks dull.

Why we use it

Aloe Vera is the first layer of our hydration approach: moisture right at the skin's surface. The leaf gel contains acemannan, a long-chain polysaccharide that both calms and raises the moisture content of the upper layers of skin. Its amino acids support the skin barrier, and polyphenols help protect your skin against oxidative stress from the environment. That is why aloe works in both of our toners and in the Radiating Cream, wherever your skin needs calm and hydration at the same time.
