Aloe Vera: Musabbar
Aloe Vera is a succulent plant from the Asphodelaceae (say that with a straight face) family. It is native to the Arabian Peninsula but has grown wild in India for thousands of years. It can grow stemless up to 40 inches tall and produces thick and fleshy green leaves and large red or yellow pendulous flowers. India exports roughly 11% of the world’s Aloe Vera, making it the 2nd largest exporter in the world. In India, Aloe Vera is referred to as Musabbar, pronounced Moo-sub-burrh - where it is used for medicinal and skin care purposes. In some regions it is also used in curries.
Skin Benefits are plenty
It's all in the science - Feeling old? Don’t we all. Doesn’t mean we can’t age gracefully though! Aloe Vera helps to slow premature ageing and wrinkles. It’s also great for rejuvenating skin and promoting skin clarity. As a skin care product, Aloe Vera is also well known for locking in moisture and reducing dry skin. It’s also good for healing dark spots and dreaded stretch marks too!
Dermatologically tested - All our soaps have been clinically tested in a lab and are dermatologically approved for all skin types including sensitive skin.
We at Saabuni are not medical professionals so we don’t claim that using our products will alleviate pre-existing skin conditions. The skin benefits we outline relate to specific ingredients within the recipe of each soap only.
