Hint: It’s an amazing succulent with some hidden benefits.

The advantages of Aloe vera are endless. We call it a succulent because of its ability to
store water in its thick, fleshy leaves. Normally these plants grow in climates with high
temperatures and very little rain (think: desert). Aloe vera’s ability to store water is good
news for you, which brings us to our first benefit:

Aloe vera’s hydrating qualities improve skin and prevent wrinkles.
That’s why we include Aloe vera in so many of our products! Aloe and skin care go
together like coffee & a crazy-productive morning. And you can include some Aloe
products in your daily routine as well. Aloe vera is a miracle moisturizer for youthful,
vibrant skin.

Aloe vera can soothe burns and sunburn.
It’s no surprise that almost every topical sunburn ointment has Aloe vera as an ingredient.
We’ve all been there– You spend half the day getting to the beach, and that’s when you
realize you left your sunscreen on your bathroom sink. Ouch. There’s a pretty good chance
that the gel you buy to sooth your scorched skin has Aloe vera in it.

Aloe vera has antibiotic and antibacterial properties.
