ALOE SUNBURN CARE
It is now believed that chronic exposure to sunlight is detrimental to human skin. In mild cases, this damage may cause increased creasing and wrinkling of the dermis, irregular thickening, and thinning, yellowing and drying: in short, “premature aging.” More extreme acute exposure to sunlight often causes acute erythema and inflammation (commonly referred to as sunburn).
Protection from damage due to sunlight traditionally comprises clothing over most of the body, with occasional application of sunscreen or sunblock formulation during periods of greater exposure. Sunscreens are chemicals that absorb UV radiation in the hazardous wavelength range and are generally water-soluble.
Sunscreens generally absorb only a fraction of the incident UV radiation, and allow some UV to pass through. The proportion of UV absorbed is reported as the “sun protection factor” or SPF and indicates the factor by which one may increase one’s exposure to sunlight without burning. Strictly speaking, a sunblock is generally a formulation opaque to UV, typically containing titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, which stops essentially all light from reaching the skin
Even when taking care to avoid overexposure to sunlight, many people still experience sunburn. Nearly everyone has such experience. Compositions are available for use in relieving pain and discomfort associated with sunburn.
Aloe Vera gel is often applied to sunburned skin in an attempt to relieve
pain. Many existing compositions, even if they do provide some pain relief, result in other discomfort.
Aloe Vera is without question the most popular of all sunburn remedies, for good reason. The cooling, soothing gel of this beautiful succulent plant provides almost immediate relief for sunburn pain. Some studies have shown that Aloe Vera enhances skin healing after burns.

Aloe Vera can help prevent damage to the skin’s immune system caused by harmful UV radiation. Aloe contains beneficial polysaccharides and provides an emollient base for the UV protective formulation. It is possibly the best known choice as a cytoprotective agent that inhibits the loss of skin immuno-competency induced by ultraviolet radiation. Aloe Vera healing of skin injuries is caused by the absorption of various forms of energy: heat, ultraviolet and ionizing radiation.
Aloe Vera has been recognized as a valuable medicinal plant for the treatment of burns. Extensive studies have described its anti-inflammatory, wound healing, and related activities. Aloe-based creams when applied immediately to first-degree burns (such as sunburns) delay progressive damage and accelerate the healing rate more effectively than fresh Aloe gel.
Solar UV radiation causes damage to cell membranes and the DNA molecules inside the cells. It also helps break down collagen fibers and elastin, which are proteins that are vitally important for maintaining the skin’s structural integrity. UV radiation causes collagen to break down faster than with the normal aging process.
For health and cosmetic benefits, overexposure to the sun should be avoided, and sunscreen products should be used when going out into the sun. Various sunscreen products have been developed and widely used for protection against UVA and UVB rays. The skin-care market currently sells sunscreen products generally in two different forms: as chemical absorbers or as physical blockers.
Aloe Vera or Aloe barbadensis has been scientifically proven for all forms of burn, be it radiation, thermal, or solar. It has also been demonstrated that it has a prophylactic effect if used before, during, and after these skin damaging events. Clearly, the plant is mainly used for its soothing and cooling effect; however, the plant is useless if used at less than 50% and it is recommended that it is used at 100% to be sure of any beneficial effect.
The polysaccharides, mannose-6-phosphate. The natural chemical constituents of Aloe Vera can be categorized in the following main areas: Amino acids, enzymes, lignin, minerals, mono- and polysaccharides, salicylic acid, saponins, sterols, and vitamins. Aloe Vera not only improved fibroblast cell structure, but also accelerated the collagen production process. Aloe Vera is a uniquely effective moisturizer and healing agent for the skin.
Aloe Vera improves the skin’s ability to hydrate itself; it is, therefore, an active skin conditioning agent.
Externally applied, it is a natural skin with the ability to penetrate into the skin and transport healthy substances through it. Aloe Vera makes it a treatment for premature aging of skin, healing of wounds, burns, sunburns, cellulitis, and more.
Aloe Vera extracts increase skin moisturization through a humectant mechanism. Indeed, this substance increases the quantity of water contained in the superficial part of the epidermis without increasing the TEWL (Transepidermal Water Loss).
Create formulas based on Aloe Vera, which includes an anesthetic component comprising lidocaine, an anti-inflammatory component comprising hydrocortisone, an emollient comprising Aloe Vera, and a pharmaceutically
acceptable base. The resulting composition has a cream-like consistency. Upon application to the skin, there is no slimy or sticky residue, but the composition becomes nearly dry to the touch. It exhibits a smooth, silk-like feel once applied.
When applied to an area of burned or irritated skin, the pain immediately subsides, and in the case of sunburn, there is a noticeable tendency for the composition to reduce or eliminate the peeling of the skin as the sunburn heals. Also, combine Aloe Vera gel with other topical remedies including anesthetics such as lidocaine hydrochloride, benzocaine, and pramoxine hydrochloride. Skin-soothing ingredients such as tocopheryl acetate (Vitamin E), menthol, camphor, eucalyptus oil, and calamine.

The immune system is a series of biological processes within the body that protect against disease by identifying and killing pathogens. A major part of the immune system are the white blood cells, which form the first line of defense in the immune system by creating a “barrier” that hunts down and kills foreign particles in the body. A compromised immune system, especially drops in
white blood cell counts, can lead to infections and illness. Likewise, a “boost” to the immune system would indicate that the body was better suited to fight off infections and diseases naturally. Studies show Aloe increasing the number of white blood cells, the body can further support a healthy immune system.

Aloe Vera is a natural source of monosaccharides and polysaccharides. These substances have antiinflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, anti-mycotic and immune-stimulating effects. All of these effects enhance digestion and bind numerous detrimental substances such as cholesterol and gall acid. Most important are the long-chain sugars (especially the polymannan sugars), which enter the intestinal wall undegraded and then have an immune regulating effect in the blood. Alternatively, they stick to the intestinal wall and therefore prevent undesired substances from entering the bloodstream.
