Aloe gel used in cosmetics provides highly balanced protection and deep hydration and is also used outside the realm of cosmetics for its excellent ability not only to rehydrate dry skin, but also to treat situations such as burns, skin ulcers, ichthyoses, eczema, genital itching, insect bites, and more. Its primary characteristic is its extraordinary ability to bind water molecules, both on the surface of the skin and in the natural moisture of the skin, and to hold that water within the outer and deeper layers of the skin. As such, it is particularly suited to increasing your skin’s hydration and tonicity, while it can also be used to soothe burns and other rash and redness. It is ideal as a moisturizer and after-sun lotion and is used in a great many specific formulations.
