Description
Aloe or Aloe Vera as commonly known, is a cactus-like plant found in sub-tropical regions across the world. In the US, they are mostly found in the southern border areas in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California.
Aloe has a long history of being used in skin care products due to their well-known properties of healing and soothing of skin.
According to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health which is part of the National Institutes of Health, the following facts have been established through scientific research and clinical studies.
- Clinical research suggests that topical application of an aloe-based gel twice daily (along with medical soap and tretinoin gel) may improve acne.
- Clinical research suggests topical application of aloe gel may speed burn healing. There also is evidence that treatment with aloe vera may reduce pain from burns.
- Research suggests topical use of aloe also may help people with herpes simplex, lichen planus, or psoriasis.
- In a small European study, 44 adults with ulcerative colitis were randomly assigned to receive aloe vera gel or a placebo twice daily for a month. Almost half of the people treated with aloe vera responded to the treatment whereas 14 percent of those treated with placebo responded.
The Ayur By Nature Aloe Vera soap is made from pure Aloe vera gel with Frankincense essential oil mixed in it. This gives them the anti-bacterial benefits of a soap with the moisturizing and soothing effect of Aloe Vera. The essential oil gives them a natural and refreshing fragrance without the risks of strong chemicals mixed into the soap. This is great for your skin as it protects it from the effect of strong chemicals.
Most of the commercially available soaps today are not really soaps by their regulatory definition. They are more of synthetic detergent products than actual soaps. Ayur By Nature products are true soaps prepared by the saponification process using natural elements instead of synthetic elements and chemicals.
