Today, Forever Living Products has captured the full strength of the living plant and blended it into one of the finest skin care regimes available. Most skin care products use water as their primary ingredient. (This is why you'll find water listed as the very first ingredient on the list of nearly every skin cream.) That means it consists mainly of water. FLP products list Aloe Vera as the number one ingredient. That's because Aloe Vera is the primary ingredient of our products .

Before discussing how Aloe Vera works in Skin Care let's look at the structure of our Skin:
Skin is the largest organ in our body and it is very vibrant. Our skin weight 15 percent of our body and covers around 12 to 20 square feet (1.1 to 1.9 square meters)! And 70% of the Skin is water.
Skin consists of 7 Layers : Epidermis (which is composed of 5 sub-layers),Dermis, and Subcutis.
Epidermis - This superficial layer, no thicker than a sheet of paper, both defend you from the outer world and presents you in it.
Dermis - This wide middle layer makes up most of your skin. It contain Collagen and Elastin — fibers that give your Skin strength, formation and elasticity.
Subcutaneous - This layer, which is primarily fat, is the source of your Skin's nerves & blood vessels. It is also the roots of your hair follicles, oil and sweat glands.

Inside Aloe Vera leaves there is a Gel-like substance. This gel has vast range of Vitamins (including Vitamin E –which is very important for skin), Minerals, Amino Acids & Enzymes. Aloe is weirdly a close match to our Skin’s pH balance. Therefore, it is able to moisturize and heal Skin fast.Aloe Vera enhances the activity of Fibroblasts. Fibroblasts are special cells found in the Skin that create Fiber such as Collagen & Elastin. These Fibers give Skin it's structure and make it look fleshy and supple. The more we have it the more YOUTHFUL we Look.
Deep in the Epidermis, Skin cells are rather large and very much alive when first formed but by the time they reach the surface (usually after 21-18 days in normal skin)they are a just a shade of their former nature and are transformed to slight flakes of Keratin which ultimately fall off. Aloe Vera gel provides the Essential Nutrients to nourish the basal cells.
