Aloe Vera Glycerin Extract

Aloe Comfort in a Pour-and-Stir Liquid

Aloe is the botanical most shoppers trust for comfort after sun, shaving or a long day outdoors. Our Aloe Vera Glycerin Extract captures the leaf in a glycerin and water base, so it drops straight into toners, gels and lotions without reconstituting powder or handling fresh gel.

About the Aloe Vera Plant

Aloe barbadensis is a succulent native to the Arabian Peninsula and now farmed across warm, dry regions. Its thick leaves store a clear, mucilaginous gel rich in polysaccharides, which is why aloe has been used for centuries on sun-exposed and freshly shaved skin. Extracting the leaf into glycerin keeps that heritage while giving you a stable, weighable liquid.

Why Formulators Choose Aloe Vera Glycerin Extract

A glycerite is the most forgiving way to work with aloe: no clumping, no hydration time, and the glycerin carrier adds its own humectant lift. It lets small-batch makers put a recognizable aloe claim on the label from the first test batch to a full run.

Key Benefits

• Soothing, cooling skin feel loved in after-sun and after-shave concepts
• Glycerin carrier adds instant hydration and slip
• Water-thin texture blends into gels and mists without haze from undissolved solids
• Instantly recognizable “aloe” story for any skin type
• Pairs with nearly every water-phase active

Applications

• After-sun gels and cooling body mists
• Alcohol-free toners and facial essences
• Aloe lotions, hand creams and baby lotions
• Shaving gels and post-shave balms
• Sheet-mask serums and hydrating masks

Add to the water phase or at cool-down and stir until uniform. Because it is already liquid, it can also be post-added to finished gels. Recommended use level: 1–10%. This is a raw cosmetic ingredient for use in formulations only, not for direct application to skin or hair.

FAQ

Is this the same as aloe vera gel?

No. It is an extract of the leaf carried in glycerin and water, designed as a formulation ingredient. It is thinner than gel and dissolves instantly in water-based formulas.

Can I use it in an alcohol-free toner?

Yes. It is water-soluble and is a classic choice for alcohol-free toners and facial mists.

Does it need a preservative?

Any water-containing finished product needs a broad-spectrum preservative system. Check the Certificate of Analysis for the preservation of the extract itself.

Liquid or powder aloe: which should I choose?

Choose the liquid for convenience and quick dosing; choose the 100:1 powder when you want a high aloe load with minimal added water.

How is Aloe Vera Glycerin Extract packed?

It ships in an amber dropper bottle with the BeautyLabPro label in 1 oz, 4 oz and 16 oz sizes. Amber glass helps protect botanical color and aroma from light.
