Aloe is well known for its moisturising and soothing properties. It is commonly used to soothe dry, irritated skin and was traditionally applied to inflamed or burnt skin.
How to use
To reconstitute into a Aloe Vera Juice:
100g batch = 99.5g Distilled Water + 0.5g Aloe Vera Powder
To reconstitute into a 10:1 Aloe Vera Juice:
100g batch = 95g Distilled Water + 5g Aloe Vera Powder
If batch is going to be stored a preservative will need to be incorporated.
Please note: this product will not produce a gel when reconstituted. Aloe Gel does not exist in nature and can only be made with the addition of a gelling agent for example Xanthan Gum or Carbopol.
Care
This product is anhydrous and should be stored with care. As soon as it is exposed to the air it will begin to absorb moisture so it must be kept in an air-tight container. Once reconstituted it should immediately be preserved as the reconstituted juice is a very favourable environment for microbial growth.This product is intended for external use only
Description
Aloe Vera Powder is prepared from the inner portion of the aloe leaf which is removed with minimal disruption to the Aloin layer. This is then further processed to remove pulp and fiber, the juice is then pasteurised and concentrated utilising low-temperature evaporation.
