ACTIVE INGREDIENTS · ALOE JUICE

Soothing, calming, the base note of the Korean ritual.

Aloe juice has been the foundational soothing active in Korean toners and gels for decades. Its gel structure holds water at the surface while polysaccharides and acemannan calm redness and reactivity. OVESSI uses aloe juice as a base note in toners, essences, and calming masks, where its transparency of texture fits the Japanese principle of minimal ceremony with maximum quiet effect.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Aloe juice questions

What makes aloe juice different from aloe gel?
Aloe juice is the liquid extracted from the aloe vera leaf, filtered for clarity and standardised for concentration. Aloe gel is the raw inner leaf pulp before processing. In formulation, aloe juice is preferred for its consistent bioactive content and clean texture that layers well under other actives.
Is aloe juice effective for sunburn or post-sun skin?
Yes. Aloe juice is well established as a calming active for heat-stressed and UV-stressed skin. Applied after sun exposure, it helps reduce the sensation of heat, supports surface hydration, and calms visible redness. OVESSI post-sun formulas use aloe juice as a primary calming ingredient.
Can aloe juice be used around the eyes?
Yes, when formulated for the eye area. Aloe juice is gentle enough for the delicate orbital skin and is a common ingredient in eye gels for its soothing and de-puffing properties. Do not apply raw aloe directly to the eye area.
Does aloe juice work for oily skin?
Yes. Aloe juice is a humectant with a lightweight gel texture that does not add oil or occlusion to the skin. It is one of the few hydrating actives that suits oily and combination skin types in both summer and winter without feeling heavy.
