Essentially Natural Aloe Vera Liquid-Gel is a preserved aloe juice ingredient used in water-based skincare and haircare formulations. It is designed to replace some or all of the water phase in products such as creams, lotions, gels, serums, mists, shampoos, and conditioners. This product is a liquid, not a fresh plant gel, so it pours easily and can be thickened with a suitable gelling agent when a true gel texture is needed. It is best understood as a formulation ingredient rather than a finished leave-on product.

♡ Why we love it: We choose to stock this aloe because it gives formulators a practical, easy-to-use aloe ingredient with broad application across water-based products. It is especially useful when a recipe needs preserved aloe in a fluid format that can slot neatly into the water phase without the handling issues of fresh gel.

Also available in Sample Sizes.

Q: Why is this aloe liquid and not like fresh aloe gel?
A: It is a preserved aloe juice ingredient made for formulation use, so it has a fluid consistency rather than the texture of fresh leaf gel.

Q: Can I turn this into a gel?
A: Yes. A suitable cosmetic gelling agent can be used to build a thicker gel texture.

Q: Can it replace all the water in a formula?
A: It can replace some or all of the water phase, provided the rest of the formula is built correctly for the intended product type.
