Balanced Nutrient Rich Inner Leaf Aloe Juice and Skincare
Grace Cosmetics is very proud of all the ingredients
that have been carefully combined to
creates its Skin Care, Body Care, Hair Care and
Sun Care ranges. However, of all its ingredients,
the abundance of Aloe Vera, found in each
product, sets the quality of Grace Cosmetics
above the rest.
The Aloe Vera plant, Aloe Barbadensis Miller, is recognised as having many health promoting qualities when applied externally to the skin and taken internally. Modern research has shown that the pure inner gel of the Aloe Vera leaves contain over 200 constituents – including essential minerals, vitamins, enzymes and amino acids plus the unique Aloe Vera polysaccharides.
Polysaccharide
(Many sugar molecules connected together)
Aloe Vera Polysaccharide
= Glucomannan
Modern science has not been able to synthetically manufacture the Polysaccharides in Aloe Vera. They are unique to the Aloe Vera plant and provide the basis for many of the outstanding results to the body both internally and externally.
The original reference to Aloe being used as a medication dates back to prescriptions from Sumarian physicians found on clay tablets which are dated back to 2100 BC, before the Christian era.
Historically, the Ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Chinese used this plant prolifically to cure such ailments as burns to the skin, eczemas, indigestion, diseases of the stomach and bowel and was used both internally and externally.
Most of the moisture in
the skin comes from
the deep inner dermis
layers and goes out to
the exterior through
the skin. If you could
create a barrier of
some sort and lessen
the amount of water which is leaving, then your
skin would remain moist for a longer period of
time. The polysaccharides in Aloe create this
moisture barrier in the skin.
In independent laboratory studies it is proven that by using Aloe in a product instead of water you achieve 3 times the penetration and absorption. Grace Cosmetics understands this, meticulously combining other proven natural and botanical nutrients into its formulations for the best results on your skin.

Testing has proven the reduction of pain, swelling and redness associated with sprains and strains, as well as acne and a variety of other skin blemishes.
When the skin sustains sunburn, the immune cells in your skin are completely destroyed. A study completed at the M.D. Anderson Clinic at the Medical Centre in Houston looked at the presence of ultraviolet exposure on the surfaceof the skin. They found, when the Aloe Gel was applied to the surface of the skin prior to testing, the immune cells were protected, providing full immune function.
Also, ageing spots – produced by the chemical, melanin, are reduced with the application of Aloe. These ageing spots are stimulated over time by a complicated chemical procedure in the body and other external forces eg. Sunlight. Aloe Vera however, provides the skin with constant rejuvenation and reverses this process helping the skin at cellular level to produce younger, softer skin.
Collagen is the skin’s basic support structure that keeps it firm and supple. Collagen is synthesised by fibroblasts deep in the heart of the skin’s nourishing centre – the dermis.
When we age, the collagen production in the skin slows down – eventually ceasing. Inevitably, with age and a depletion of collagen, the epidermis becomes wrinkled, crevassed and thin. Many other cosmetic and skin care products, though promising anti-ageing results, did little more than just hydrate the skin for brief periods. The production of Collagen was not stimulated, so facial lines and the evidence of ageing remained the same.
However, when Aloe is used on the surface of the skin, its penetration deep into the skin will stimulate the skin’s fibroblasts to produce collagen and reverse the visible signs of ageing.
