What Aloe Vera Gel is for and what it offers you

First of all you should know that Aloe Vera has been known for its beneficial properties for hundreds of years.

Consider that when Christopher Columbus set sail for the “New World” (now America) he wrote in his logbook:

“Everything is good, have Aloe on board”

Or: “Everything is fine, I have Aloe on board”.

This makes you understand what reputation this plant had already centuries ago!

Over time the uses only increase, discovering new processes and thus increasing the value of this plant.

But I think that you too, when you talk about “Aloe Vera”, immediately think of a “magical” natural remedy, right?

So here’s how these properties of Aloe Vera Gel make it this natural, “magical” cure:

• ANTIVIRALS: its extraordinary antiviral properties, resulting from the action of aloe, make it a reliable defense against, for example, Herpes Simplex.
• HEALING: the healing capabilities emerge thanks to a series of sugars present in the gel, which are involved in the synthesis of collagen.
• SOOTHING: Soothing in case of sunburn or prolonged exposure to the sun , Aloe Vera Gel calms the reddened area and prevents the formation of sunburn blisters.
  For this reason it is also ideal after shaving or hair removal and offers relief when the skin is excessively dry and tends to be “tight”.
• MOISTURIZING: its hydrating and humidifying power, derived from its ability to retain water, makes it a precious resource for dry and itchy skin on the face, body, arms, hands and feet.
  (Combined with substances such as Vegetable Glycerin, it intensifies its hydrating effects.)
• ANTI-INFLAMMATORY: the anti-inflammatory properties of the gel, with enzymes, sugars, salicylic acid and fatty acids, make it effective against redness, irritation, and acne and itching.
• ANTIOXIDANTS: thanks to Zinc, Selenium and vitamins C and E it has an antioxidant action to protect the skin of your body from oxidative stress and free radicals that damage the body’s healthy cells, excellent for anti- aging.
• ANTIBACTERIAL: Its antibacterial action is a valid support when inflammation is accompanied by bacterial proliferation.
• SEBUM-REGULATING: its sebum-regulating and astringent abilities make it perfect for oily, impure or dry and sensitive skin.
  On the scalp, for example, it regulates sebum production and adds hydration to compresses, becoming a precious ally for your hair.

In every drop of this gel, you find an elixir of freshness and vitality, ready to help you reveal the best of you.

And you can’t do your best if you don’t know these things!

Aloe Vera Gel is a real panacea for your skin.

Especially if it is “Pure”. Let’s now see what we mean by Pure Aloe Vera Gel.

Pure Aloe Vera Gel: How to Find the Quality

Maybe you know the Gel but most likely you don’t know when a product can be called “pure “.

Unfortunately, however, to answer the question we must go into more detail and understand how Aloe Vera Gel is produced.

To begin with, it is necessary to say that purity is not only seen from the percentage of Aloe Vera Gel present in the product (still an important factor).

What you should be most interested in understands how the Gel is extracted from the Aloe Vera Leaf.

I’ll explain the process to you briefly…

The substance that forms the product is contained in the internal, fleshy part of the leaf.

This part is cut from the plant, filleted and scraped away excluding the bark.

We then proceed with the Stabilization of the Gel, a process that allows it to maintain its magnificent properties.

This is the simple but delicate process of extracting the Gel from the Aloe Vera plant.

Sometimes it happens that many products are presented as “pure” only because they have a high percentage of Aloe Vera in the product.

But that doesn’t mean it’s just Gel!

The need to save time and money pushes companies to process the entire Aloe leaf, including the external part.

The problem is that the bark contains ant nutrients, which compromise the final product

So when comparing products: Be careful.

Check that it is specified that it was produced by working only the Gel inside the leaf, discarding the Aloin contained in the external part.

Please always check, your skin deserves the best, and Aloe Vera can offer you all the benefits.

Sorry, before continuing with the frequently asked questions about Aloe Vera Gel, I wanted to tell you that we at VERA, for example, have a Gel that exactly respects the characteristics just listed and am produced 100% in Italy.

Well now let’s continue straight towards the answers to the questions that people and perhaps you too, ask when it comes to Aloe Vera.
