How does it differ from regular aloe vera leaf powder?
Our 200x extract is from inner gel only: highly concentrated, brown-colored, low aloin, and optimized for skincare hydration. Leaf powder uses the whole leaf, is less concentrated, greener, higher in aloin, and better for colorants or internal use.
How do I add it to cold process soap?
Dissolve 1-2% in the lye water (or distilled water phase), let it sit 24 hours for best activation, then proceed with your recipe. It adds soothing without compromising trace or lather.
What's the recommended usage rate in cosmetics?
0.5-2% in the water phase of lotions, creams, or gels. Higher rates for intensive masks or treatments.
Is it stable in high-pH soap making?
Yes! Unlike fresh aloe, this concentrated powder holds up beautifully in lye environments for reliable soothing benefits.
Can it be used in hair care products?
Absolutely – add to shampoos or conditioners for scalp soothing, hydration, and natural shine.
Is this powder suitable for sensitive or baby skin products?
Yes, its gentle, latex-free profile makes it ideal for calming, non-irritating formulations.
Does it have a scent or colour impact?
Mild natural scent; imparts a light brown tint – perfect for natural-looking products.
