Aloe vera is a plant-derived gel rich in polysaccharides, vitamins, and amino acids used in skincare for its hydrating, soothing, and mild anti-inflammatory properties. It is commonly applied to support skin barrier comfort and to relieve minor irritation or sunburn.
Hyaluronic acid is a glycosaminoglycan that attracts and binds water to the skin, helping to maintain hydration and improve the appearance of plumpness and smoothness. It is widely used in moisturizers and serums and is generally well tolerated across skin types.
