Aloevera gel

Aloevera have multiple uses in skin care regiment.

  •   It acts as a natural barrier and shields our skin from dangerous toxins.
  •  It is helpful for frostbite, burns, insect bites, blisters and allergic reactions.
  • It makes the skin smooth and glowing.
  • It relieves heat on the skin caused by sunburn.
  • It destroys bacteria that try to invade cuts or open wounds.
  •   It is an excellent skin moisturizer that keeps the skin flexible by giving oxygen to the cells which in turn increases the strength and synthesis of skin tissue and thus makes skin smooth and glowing.
  •   It is beneficial for the cosmetic products such as make up, anti-wrinkle creams, facial masks, skin conditioners and lipsticks.
  • Aloe vera is useful for preventing the aging of the skin. It nourishes the skin and tissues with body-loving nutrients such as vitamin E and C. 

I had been searching for Aloeveral Gel for long time. It is funny here you can get Aloevera plant abundantly, but can't get Aloevera gel. Finally i got  Aloevera gel from Nautre's essence, who manufactures Coloressence products also.

I t comes in a small plastic  pot which looks cute .


Gel have a very  pretty green colour .  But from what i heard aloevera gel is normally colourless, so i guess colour imparted by artificial coloring.


 Smells very nice and refreshing. I often apply on hands just to smell it.


What company claims?

A treatment moisturizing gel ideal for softening the skin, protecting it from sun damage and acting as a guard and immunizing agent against skin ailments like dry skin, acne and itchy skin conditions. The gel is an ideal solution for gifting you soft, glowing and pampered skin..

Ingrediants: 

 Now here i have doubt. Key ingredients given back of the carton is Aloevera extracts, Pepper mint oil and mineralised water .But you can see in second pic, in front of carton it is given as Aloevera and tea tree oil. From what i understood, pepper mint oil and tea tree oil are different. :-/


I use this gel in morning as a substitute of moisturizer. It gives an instant cool feeling and makes me refreshed.It do makes skin smooth and supple even if temporarily.When applied, within minutes it will be absorbed to skin , so need to be afraid of oily look.



Price : 55.00 INR for 100 gm.


Pros:

  1. Smells very nice.
  2. Looks very pretty.
  3. Gives an instant cool, refreshing sensation.
  4. Moisturises skin and make it smooth and supple.
  5. In expensive.
  6. Will get dried fast on skin and wont give you oily look.
Cons : 


  1. Comes in a pot, so you have to put fingers in pot every time you use.
  2. Confused about ingredients.
Will buy again?..Yes..Till i find a good alternative.
