The sun-exposed skin go hand-in-hand which means it’s essential that appropriate skincare is adopted both during the day and after sun-down. You can read up about appropriate sun protection here, but today we want to talk to you about your after sun care, and we believe that the only product you need is Aloe Vera Gelly.

Historically, a major use of aloe vera was to aid in soothing minor skin irritations. Many households kept a live aloe, or “burn plant” for first-aid use. Essentially identical to the aloe vera inner leaf, our 100% stabilized aloe vera gel lubricates sensitive tissue safely. Specially prepared for topical application to moisturize, soothe and condition, Aloe Vera Gelly is a thick, translucent gel containing humectants and moisturizers. Readily absorbed by the skin, it soothes without staining clothes. Aloe Vera Gelly provides temporary relief from minor skin irritations. It can also be used on the skin prior to ultrasonic treatment, or after electrolysis. Hairdressers use the Jelly around the hairline to protect the skin before perming and coloring.

INGREDIENTS Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice (Stabilized Aloe Vera Gel/gel d’aloès officinal stabilisÃ), Water (Aqua), Glycerin, Triethanolamine, Carbomer, Tocopherol (Natural Vitamin E/vitamine E naturelle), Allantoin, Ascorbic Acid, Diazolidinyl Urea, Disodium EDTA, Methylparaben.

Here’s five benefits that’ll make this summer skin care product number one on your list…

It has cooling benefits

Even with decent sun protection, your skin can feel hot and bothered after a day spent sitting in the sun. A pink-red glow to the skin that’s warm to touch and even a little bit tender needs cooling right down and a healthy blob of Aloe Vera Gelly will do the trick. This lubricating after sun gel is enriched with the natural beneficial power of aloe, a plant that is colloquially referred to as the ‘burn plant’ thanks to its ability to soothe irritated skin.

It has skin conditioning benefits

Slathering on after sun gel may be a great solution when your skin’s feeling a tad sizzled but if what you’re using isn’t beneficial for the skin itself, you might as well have just sat in an icy bath!

It will care for your skin It’s soothing, it’s conditioning and it cares for your skin! When your skin needs a little extra care and attention, the thick, translucent aloe gel captured in every tube of Aloe Vera Gelly is what it’s crying out for. Aloe vera carries the same pH as balanced skin, which means this gel, which is naturally high in aloe, is perfect for safely lubricating sensitive tissue and giving your skin the benefits it deserves. But it’s not just the skin it’s kind to: Aloe Vera Gelly has also been awarded the Leaping Bunny logo which means not a single one of its ingredients has been tested on animals. It’s also vegan-friendly and halal!

It is full of beneficial aloe vera goodness

Aloe vera is known to be naturally beneficial for skin but it’s products with a high percentage of pure inner leaf aloe that carry all the skin-loving goodness. Aloe Vera Gelly is rich in pure, inner leaf aloe vera gel; in fact, its ingredients list boasts 84% pure aloe which means it’s almost identical to an aloe vera plant’s inner leaf! Inner leaf aloe gel is the part of the leaf that carries the most nutrients and benefits for humans and animals, it’s what the ancient Egyptians – including Queen Cleopatra – used to bathe in to keep their skin looking youthful, and it’s what differentiates a high quality aloe product from the inferior sap-and-rind-heavy rivals on the market. 

It’s just an amazing after-sun gel

Cooling, conditioning, caring and aloe-rich – what more do you want from an after-sun gel? Well, I guess you want it to work! Aloe Vera Gelly will not let you down and when used liberally and frequently after your sunbathing sessions, its aloe vera benefits will soon get to work and rescue your skin from the dreaded peel, the annoying fade and the embarrassing bright scarlet tones that no-one can pull off!

Aloe vera benefits for your hair

Calms an itchy scalp

Seborrheic dermatitis is the clinical term for the condition we call dandruff. The symptoms of an itchy scalp and flaking skin under your hair can be treated with aloe vera.

A 1998 study found that aloe vera helped resolve the scalp inflammation that dandruff causes. The fatty acids found in the aloe plant have anti-inflammatory properties.

Deep cleans oily hair

Aloe vera cleanses the hair shaft efficiently, stripping off extra sebum (oil) and residue from other hair products.

But aloe vera doesn’t hurt your hair strands while it cleans. Unlike other chemicals in hair products, aloe vera is gentle and preserves the integrity of your hair.

Using aloe vera is a great way to get hair that looks healthier, shinier, and softer.

Strengthens and repairs hair strands

Aloe vera contains vitamins A, C, and E. All three of these vitamins contribute to cell turnover, promoting healthy cell growth and shiny hair.

Vitamin B12 and folic acid are also contained in aloe vera gel. Both of these components can keep your hair from falling out.

However, there are no studies that confirm conclusively that aloe vera has any benefit in preventing hair loss.

Aloe vera is a popular product that people use on their skin after sun exposure. This is because of its high collagen content and cooling properties. The vitamin content in aloe vera suggests that it might work to repair sun damage to your hair, too.

May promote hair growth

When your scalp has been cleansed and your hair has been conditioned with aloe vera, you might see that hair breakage and loss slows down.

There are plenty of people who claim that aloe vera actually causes hair to grow much faster. But as of now, there’s little clinical evidence to prove or disprove those claims.
