It's important to know that you can't press oil from an aloe leaf—it's almost all water. Aloe Vera Oil is actually a therapeutic infusion. The fleshy leaves of the aloe plant are macerated and steeped in a stable, neutral carrier oil (like soybean or sunflower oil). This process allows all of the oil-soluble nutrients from the aloe to transfer into the carrier oil, creating a new, doubly-beneficial ingredient.

This oil combines the best of both worlds. You get the moisturizing and barrier-supporting benefits of the carrier oil, supercharged with the legendary soothing and anti-inflammatory properties of aloe vera. It is exceptionally effective at calming red, irritated, or sun-exposed skin, providing a layer of gentle, healing moisture.

Compared to our Aloe Vera Butter, the oil is much lighter and absorbs more quickly. It has a smooth, non-greasy feel that makes it perfect for facial serums, lightweight lotions, and massage oils, especially for sensitive skin. It delivers the comfort of aloe in a beautiful, silky, oil-based format.

We use a high-quality infusion sourced from the USA to ensure we're capturing the maximum amount of aloe's potent compounds. It's an intelligent, effective way to deliver the oil-soluble goodness of this incredible healing plant to your skin.
