When many people think of aloe vera, they first think of a transparent gel. The leaf extract is also found in creams and toners: it is used in cosmetics to care for the skin and keep it supple. The entire formula determines whether the finished product feels light or rich. You can therefore try aloe even if a gel alone does not provide enough care for you.

The Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Cream combines aloe leaf extract with glycerin, shea butter and ceramide NP. Its rich texture suits the desire for creamy care rather than a watery intermediate step. Apply it to your face and neck after your serum or immediately after cleansing. It also contains essential oils. If you can’t tolerate them, take that into account when making your selection.
