Long
before the commercial cosmetic
industry turned the process of looking and feeling great into a
mega-confusion of products and propaganda, the Iberians were turning
to Mother Nature for their beauty and health creations. For
thousands of years, the Spanish have known about the incredible
healing powers of their regional plants.
Aloe Vera is a
hardy plant that needs little water and plenty of light, which makes
Spain, especially Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands, an ideal
place to grow Aloe Vera Barbadensis.
Despite its cactus-like appearance, the Aloe Vera
is in fact a member of the lily family - lilacae - which includes
garlic. There are over 400 species of Aloe Vera but the species
which has the almost important healing qualities is ALOE VERA
BARBADENSIS.
Aloe vera gel projects and heals the skin even
when the skin is burnt or affected by UVA UVB and exposed to
sunlight. It is a powerful emollient, moisturizing and nutritive
agent.
Natural Solter Laboratories
of Benitachell, Alicante, are well aware of the healing properties
of the Aloe Vera plant and utilizes the antioxidants and
cell-regeneration properties in its healing gels and creams.
Wild Rosehip seed oil or
Rosa Mosqueta, is an essential polyunsaturated fatty acids
containing high concentration of vitamin C which provides remarkable
tissue rejuvenating and regenerating property that helps to prevent
premature skin aging.
Rosa Mosqueta is truly remarkable oil with outstanding skin
rejuvenating properties. This oil penetrates the skins upper layers
very quickly making it a superb moisturizer. It supports the keratin
migration cycle that is responsible for the natural regeneration of
skin cells. In addition to its healing of sensitive, allergic, sun
damaged, hyper pigmented, dry, aging, or problem skin, it also
provides immediate relief for dry skin and eczema.
Extensive studies have shown Rosehip seed oil to have a positive
effect on scars and stretch marks. Scars caused by injury or surgery
are effectively treated to reduce the red coloration and the
appearance of lumps that often occur. Rosehip seed oil can be
applied as soon as the initial healing has taken place. Excellent
results have been obtained through its anti-inflammatory properties
in improving burning skin and dermatitis caused by radiotherapy.
