Soothing

Aloe Vera

Nature's skin soother

Derived from the inner leaf gel of Aloe barbadensis, aloe vera contains over 75 active compounds including polysaccharides, enzymes, vitamins, and minerals. In skincare, it provides immediate soothing relief for irritated or inflamed skin, helps restore moisture, and delivers gentle antimicrobial properties — making it ideal for acne-prone and sensitive skin.

The Problem

Active acne treatments like salicylic acid and niacinamide can cause transient dryness or irritation, especially for those new to actives. Indian skin in hot, humid climates also frequently experiences redness and inflammation that needs to be calmed alongside treatment.

The Solution

Aloe vera's polysaccharides form a soothing film over the skin surface that reduces irritation and locks in moisture, while its antimicrobial compounds support the anti-acne action of salicylic acid and tea tree oil. In Larupa's formulas, it acts as a skin-calming buffer that makes active ingredient blends more comfortable for daily use.
