Aloe Vera Gel.

Description

A “pourable” food grade aloe gel.

We’ve been using it in our SkeeterBeater and Clarifying Gel, but had requests to offer it as a stand-alone product as well.

Please note this is NOT a fixed oil. If adding to creams and lotions it must be calculated as part of the water phase.

Aloe Vera has been proven to be an effective treatment for skin lesions and burns. It is a highly effective moisturizer and an anti-inflammatory. Recent research has proven that aloe plus essential oils is a more effective acne synergy than the use of either the aloe or the essential oils (diluted in a carrier oil) alone. We highly recommend the use of Aloe Vera Gel in any skin treatment. Topical uses of Aloe Vera Gel may include acne, sunburn, frostbite (it appears to stimulate blood circulation), shingles, alleviating the effects of radiation treatment, psoriasis, preventing scarring, rosacea, warts, wrinkles from aging, and eczema. For thousands of years aloe has been used as a “cure-all.” Some sources say that aloe vera was the secret of Cleopatra’s complexion.

ingredients: Whole Aloe leaves, Xanthum gum (food grade, plant derived thickener), and Lemon juice concentrate (pH stabilizer)

When blending with Aloe Vera, you will need an emulsifier and a preservative(unless you are making a small batch that will be used within 24-48 hours, and keep the formulation refrigerated). Aloe Vera is water based. It will become contaminated and form bacterial growth if not properly stored or preserved.
