Our 99% naturally bio-active pure aloe vera gel is extracted from the leaves of the spiky, green aloe plants native to tropical and subtropical climates such as Southern Europe and Northern Africa. We don’t add any colouring, fragrances or parabens making our pure aloe vera gel safe for all skin types.
Rich in nutrients, aloe gel can be applied topically to ease various skin conditions or used to enrich your homemade beauty products.
What is aloe vera gel good for?
Recent research and studies have indicated that aloe vera gel is not only effective in healing superficial skin damage like mild burns, dry skin, and sunburn but also offers additional benefits due to its rich composition. Aloe vera gel contains antioxidants, enzymes, and essential vitamins A and C, making it a powerhouse ingredient in skincare.
The presence of these components contributes to its highly anti-inflammatory properties, making it a suitable choice for addressing concerns such as acne and dry skin. Moreover, the enzymes present in the gel facilitate gentle exfoliation, aiding in the removal of dead skin cells and promoting a smoother, rejuvenated complexion.
How to use aloe vera gel?
Our 99% naturally bio-active pure aloe gel offers a multitude of benefits for skincare enthusiasts. This versatile product can be seamlessly integrated into your beauty regimen, whether applied directly onto the skin or incorporated into DIY skincare concoctions to provide a potent dose of nutrients and vitamins.
For those seeking relief from mild burns or sunburns, the application of aloe vera gel is recommended 2-3 times a day. However, in cases of more severe burns or skin conditions, it is paramount to consult with a healthcare professional for appropriate medical advice and treatment.
Creating your homemade aloe vera facial moisturiser is a delightful and simple process. Combine our enriching aloe gel in equal parts with a nourishing carrier oil like our luxurious sweet almond oil or the rejuvenating jojoba oil. Enhance the mixture with a touch of vitamin E oil for additional skin benefits and infuse it with your preferred essential oils to customise the fragrance. Give your creation a gentle shake before applying it to revel in the hydrating and revitalising properties of this homemade elixir.
The adaptability of aloe vera extends to its compatibility with various skin types, including sensitive, dry, and oily skin. Its non-greasy, lightweight formula ensures easy absorption, making it a versatile addition to any skincare routine. While aloe vera is generally well-tolerated, conducting a patch test before widespread application is advisable to ensure compatibility and avoid any potential allergic reactions, safeguarding your skin’s health and vitality.
Is aloe vera juice and gel the same thing?
No. Aloe vera gel comes from the inside of aloe leaves and is an odourless, clear gooey liquid. Aloe vera juice, which is often consumed orally as a natural health tonic, is derived from the outer parts of the leaf from which it seeps as a yellow liquid with a bitter taste.
If you have your own aloe plants and are considering creating your own juice to take orally, always be sure to pay due diligence to the potential risks and health complications that may be associated with doing so and speak to a health professional first.
Can aloe vera gel be used for hair care?
Yes, it is versatile and can be beneficial for hair health. Applying it to the scalp can help promote hair growth, moisturise the hair strands, reduce dandruff, and soothe scalp irritations. It can also be added to DIY hair masks for added nourishment.

I bought this to help my neuropathy and it works. I have massaged this into my hands and feet morning and night and I have seen a great difference in the pain factor. I would strongly recommend this product if you are a neuropathy sufferer.

Hello first i am not medically trained but here is a review of the product ,i have found i have cancer and other health issues ,but i caught shingles as the immune system is low , i was told Aloe gel can easy the pain of shingles and cool the shingles and stop the itch ,also any skin spores that can spread are trapped in the gel so should help stop the spread , i had a rash on left shoulder blade left nipple and left side near arm pit , the rashes where growing when i started using the aloe gel and with in hours the itch had calmed the burning had calmed after a day or 2 it had settled right down , i was applying it 3 times a day just a thin smear over the sores with a cotton bud , it calmed down and the rash even shrunk slightly not much but it never grew anymore and it never went scabby like they say yes it dried out but the gel seems to have kept it all in place and just wash away with clean wipes , i can highly recommend this gel for SHINGLES RASH .
The gel is of the highest quality like all the products i have had from Freshskin

I use this aloe vera gel which I added lavender essential oil, as a face and body moisturiser. It absorbs in within minutes and leaves my skin soft, smooth, and hydrated. I absolutely love it and will look forward to making skincare blends with it as well.
