Why Aloe Vera

+500 species. Only one matters.

Aloe Barbadensis Miller is the species with the highest concentration of active ingredients. Originally from the Arabian Peninsula, it adapts particularly well to volcanic and subtropical climates like that of the Canary Islands, where mineral-rich soils enhance its composition.

The aloe leaf is composed of three layers: the outer rind, the yellow latex, and the inner gel. It is this gel—obtained from the pulp—that contains the active ingredients used in cosmetics and nutrition.

Fatty Acids Cholesterol, campesterol and ß-sitosterol

Anti-inflammatory properties. Improve the lipid barrier of the skin.

Real benefits

The polysaccharides in aloe, especially acemannan, form a film that retains water in the deeper dermal layers. Unlike conventional moisturizers, it does not act on the surface.

The auxins and gibberellins in aloe vera stimulate the proliferation of fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen. Studies show a significant reduction in healing time.

Bradikinase inhibits the synthesis of proinflammatory prostaglandins. Effective in dermatitis, psoriasis, acne, and sunburn. Clinical studies compare it favorably with 1% hydrocortisone without its side effects.

Anthraquinones act against bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes, frequently associated with acne and superficial skin infections.
