Aloe
— Grown and used in abundance in Indonesia, when cut and
squeezed aloe's long, spiny leaves release a fluid full of nutrients,
which promotes skin cell renewal. The liquid dissolves dead
skin cells, which clog and dull your complexion.
The underlying skin is then nourished by the gel's moisturizers
and, as it dries, it forms a barrier, protecting you from the
sun, wind, and free radicals. |
