Are you looking for a light gel that you can apply to your face and body after showering? This aloe vera gel by Himalaya comes in a generous 300 ml pot. The base is juice from the leaves of the aloe vera plant. You spread it on, it absorbs quickly, and your skin feels soft and supple. Without a sticky layer.
After water, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice is at the top of the ingredients list. That is the INCI name (the international name for cosmetic ingredients) of the juice from the leaves of the aloe vera. The higher an ingredient is on the list, the more of it is in the product. In addition, it contains propylene glycol, a substance that retains moisture in the upper layer of your skin. Carbomer gives the gel its clear, firm texture. And a light fragrance provides a fresh scent. In short: a short list, with aloe vera clearly taking the lead role.
Many people wonder if you can use an aloe vera product on your face, or only on your body. This aloe vera gel is made for both, and Himalaya says it is suitable for all skin types. You apply it to clean skin on your face, neck, and body. Due to the gel texture, it feels cooling the moment you apply it. That makes it popular on warm summer days, on vacation, or after exercising. By the way, with 300 ml you can also generously apply it to your arms and legs without your pot immediately being empty.
A cream usually contains a lot of oil or fat. That lays a layer on your skin, which can be nice if your skin feels very dry in the winter. A gel, on the other hand, is mostly water, without heavy oils. Because of that, it feels light and absorbs quickly. The difference is therefore mainly in the feeling on your skin. If you find creams too heavy, or your skin gets shiny quickly, then a gel is often more pleasant. And you can also combine them perfectly: the gel during the day, a richer cream before going to bed.
People have been using aloe vera in their skincare for a long time. Himalaya, a brand that has been working with plant-based ingredients since 1930, incorporates it here in a simple gel for every day. For your face, your arms, your legs, or wherever you want.
Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice is second on the ingredients list. This makes aloe vera the main ingredient in this gel.
You don't need separate products for your face and body. This gel is designed for both and is suitable for all skin types.
With 300 ml, you can apply generously, even to larger areas of your body such as your arms and legs.
The gel consists mainly of water and aloe vera juice, without heavy oils. It absorbs quickly and leaves no sticky residue.

Yes, this gel is made for your face, neck, and body. Apply it to clean skin and avoid the area around your eyes. Stop using it if your skin becomes irritated.
You can use the gel daily, for example after showering or in the morning after washing your face. There is no maximum stated on the packaging. Use it as often as feels comfortable for your skin.
Yes, Himalaya states that the gel is suitable for all skin types. Because it is lightweight and contains no heavy oils, people with skin that gets shiny quickly often choose a gel instead of a cream.
No, the gel is designed to dry quickly without leaving a sticky residue. Apply a thin layer and give it a moment. If you use too much at once, it will take a little longer to dry.
That is the INCI name for the juice from the leaf of the aloe vera plant (Aloe barbadensis). INCI is the international naming system that you will find on all cosmetics in the EU. In this gel, it is listed as the second ingredient, directly after water.
A body lotion is a mixture of water and oil, which gives it a creamier feel. This aloe vera gel contains no oil and feels lighter and fresher. A lotion is better suited for very dry skin, while a gel is ideal for warm weather or when you prefer a light feel.
